Sam Kinison: Breaking All The Rules

Sam Kinison was and still is one of the funniest comedians ever. Originally he followed in his father's footsteps as a Pentecostal preacher before becoming a comedian and his style, both as a preacher and as a comedian, was punctuated by loud abrasive screaming. He was loud, in-your-face, and hilarious and his booming career was on it's upswing when he was tragically stuck in his 1989 Trans Am by a 17 year old in a pickup truck who had been drinking. I highly suggest you check out some of his stand-up CDs, DVDs and television show appearances. Here's one notable stint on Saturday Night Live where he plays a teacher conducting a Parent/Teacher interview as well as the full Breaking All The Rules 1987 stand-up special.
