The Van Gogh-Goghs’ Discography » oswald

n the autobiography Galen: A Hernia Among Us, Galen Black listed this album as “his first California mistake.”1 This live comedy album, taped live at the Hollywood Bowl, is truly a live album. “Live” was mentioned three times in the last sentence to emphasize that this is a live album. Other ways to identify this as a live album: the part in track 1 where Galen mumbles to no one in particular, “Can we start this over?”; the man in track 4 who screams, “You suck. Yeah, you, Galen Black, you suck!”; track 8, which is the murmurs of the crowd during the intermission; and track 9, when the stagehand comes on-stage and tells the crowd that Galen has gone home. Live live live live live. Live. Live live. This album is no longer in circulation.
