Mitch All Together by Mitch Hedberg

Gotta give it 5 stars! Mitch Hedberg was one of the funniest comedians ever! My freshman year of college was a long string of Mitch Hedberg quotes, one after the other. If you've never heard of him, you must listen to this album. And if you have heard of him, listen to this album again.

While I'm not about to try and paint a tragic figure of the funny kid who died snorting cocaine; Mitch Hedberg was one of the most refreshing acts out there while he was still around. Smart little quips; played like they were coming from an idiot though it was obvious that such a quick wit could only belong to a real genius. Its a shame he died, though he's thankfully left behind a funny little legacy of sorts. Hopefully we'll be quoting his gems in the decades to come.

Good work Mitch. You will be missed by anyone who respects good thought-out comedy.

Mitch Hedberg is beyond amazing. His death is very sad but it's great that we have this great CD to remember him by! I don't want to ruin any jokes, but any Mitch Hedberg CD is a great CD. This one in particular for a couple of the jokes right in the middle. You won't like this if you don't appreciate a dry and very random humor, but if you do then there is no turning back. He just does joke after joke no long running or stupid rants that no one cares about. I could give you an example but she typing it would never do his jokes justice.

Mitch Hedberg will be missed by so many, with such a unique sense of humor and delivery, I think this album captures all of that in a box. Expect a series of one liner jokes, one after another like gun shots - not the kind we may be accustomed to, his will make you think, reflect, and laugh hysterically. Some criticize the fact that he uses his jokes on more than one occasion. Doesn't really phase me I'm always there laughing. He was later imitated to a certain extent by upcoming comedians such as Demetri Martin. Comic zen at its finest.

Ah, Mitch Hedburg. Easily one of the greatest comedians of our time. Despite the rampant drug use, he was a tragic figure that saw the humorous side of growing up and not growing up at all, the little absurdities that are constantly developed and accepted in everyday life. Mitch All Together is the best recording of his work that survives. Not only is it a great disc (that will leave you laughing for hours) it comes with a very solid DVD that includes two separate performances of some of tehe same material, some newer material and some older stuff from his Strategic Grill Locations recording. If you aren't familiar with Hedburg and his weird, mumbling delivery, you need to hear this. You will not be disappointed.

Possibly one of my favorite comedians of all time, Mitch Hedberg has a comic delivery that is extremely unique and unlike any I've heard. "Mitch All Together" is Hedberg's second CD he's released and contains some of his most loved jokes (including the origins of the "DR. ACULA" joke commonly used in the television show "Scrubs"). The now deceased comedian fills his shows with a smattering of stories that are interlinked by the most random detail ("I thought about having my teeth whitened and I thought 'F**k that, I'll just get a tan instead'....I have enough tartar you could dip a fish in it.....I'd like to go fishing and catch a fishstick....If fish could scream, the ocean would be loud as s**t, they would all be yelling "AHHHHH F**k!" paraphrased). Basically, he has an imaginary conversation with himself the entire time. The things that chains his thoughts together are delivered with hysterical intensity. As you probably could have gathered from my written sample, the language isn't for virgin ears, though he doesn't use it so much that it's pointless or tacky. This CD is about 45 minutes or so long, with a massive range of material to listen to. He is a greatly underrated comedian and everyone I've shared his comedy with has grown to love him as much as I do. If you want an almost guaranteed laugh, then check out some of Mitch Hedburg's work.
