New Music Tuesday: A Stream of Comedy! [Albums]
August 7, 2018 Leave a comment
Welcome to our first edition of New Music Tuesday in our stand up comedy showcase! And keeping with the theme that we tried to do last Sunday when we shamelessly told you what to watch on Netflix because we are all creatures of habit at time…we want to talk comedy albums! And even more, these are comedy albums that you definitely should purchase, preferably in the lobby of the comedy club in which you just watched them for an hour or so. But, we are not so ignorant to think that this is always going to happen.
So, with that in mind, I decided to search from Apple Music and see if some of my favorite comedy albums happen to be streamable. And I was not surprised to find out that a great deal of them are indeed just out there for either free of charge, or for the monthly subscription you probably already have. And just to throw this note out there, I am only assuming that if an album is available on Apple Music, it’s probably on Spotify, or other music streaming services. I make this assumption with absolutely no knowledge or fact checking whatsoever. I would like to reiterate, as a music blogger for over a decade, that streaming music is all good and fine…but if you do feel oh so compelled to support artists, stream them first and then go out and actually buy their work. Alright, enough preaching about that.
I also need to reiterate….THIS IS NOT A BEST OF LIST!!! There is no order here, this is simply a list of some extremely hilarious stand up comedy albums that I personally (Ron Trembath) enjoy so damn much. Again, the collection listed below does not reflect even the opinion of anyone who has contributed to Trainwreck’d Society in any way. This is just me. I like to think I know about good comedy, but I am not confident enough to state that this is the definitive list of hilarious comedy albums. I do feel confident enough to tell you that each and every one of these are so fucking funny, and you should at the very least…give them a stream.
You may also notice that some of these albums have been out for a while. The artist mentioned may even have a more recent album out, but I for whatever reason feel attracted to the release that was featured. But, as we all know comedians are always progressing (hopefully) in their craft, and may have gotten even better. So please be sure to give these a listen, and then follow up with more recent releases! Furthermore, some of these albums may simply be the audio of a live special you can also use your eyeholes to enjoy as well. So find that too!
So here we go Folks! If you logged in to our Netflix Is A Joke feature, you’re probably going to see some repeats, but there are also some new faces up in here! I have also included the label that the album was released on, and a link to where you can purchase the album after giving it a stream. Which is how this should work. Enjoy!
