Thank you! Couldn't (and didn't) say it better myself. And thanks for mentioning Captain Beefheart!!! Now, can we get all of these critics to stop comparing Sarah Silverman to Lenny Bruce? Seems that anybody these days that uses ethnic humor in their act is the 'new Lenny Bruce'. Message to the critics: ain't that simple. Maybe try listening to some of his stuff instead of reading the Cliff Notes and you'll understand what that guy was all about and why it was relevant to that time.
