The Prophet

So, what was Lewis Black like when he was younger? Did he have a positive outlook on life in the '80s and grow disenchanted as he got older? Hardly. This historic record from America's foremost commentator on everything, gives a telling, hilarious insight into Lewis Black's earlier years in standup. Before the Daily Show, before the Grammys, before the massive fame.

This performance was recorded in late 1992 while Lewis was on tour. It exemplifies his acid-tongued wit, his prescience about what matters, and his hilarious takes on the politics of the times. Lewis toured clubs and colleges through the end of the 20th century. He honed his craft to become the spokesman he is now- the spokesman for a generation of crazies gone straight... but with fond memories.

Lewis's first five award-winning CDs are consistent sellers and have sold over a half a million combined units in the US alone. Comedy Central has a huge promotion planned behind the release and Lewis is always on the road and will be making personal appearances at radio stations and will be available for retail signings in every tour market.
