"The
mind of WC Fields connected to the mouth of Richard Pryor"
- The Independent
"What he has in abundance is the charm, don't give-a-damn
swagger and aggressive intelligence, that makes for important, exciting
comedy" - The Guardian

Having
completed a headlining run at the 2005 'Just For Laughs' comedy
festival in Montreal, and with several Edinburgh Festival appearances
under his belt, Sicko is the first UK CD release from
shockingly uninhibited U.S. stand-up Doug Stanhope.
Shake
The Baby / VDI Entertainment release Sicko on
27th March 2006, at an RRP of £9.99. Recorded
at The Laff Stop in Houston, Texas, Sicko serves
as the perfect introduction to the twisted comedy of Doug
Stanhope.
Named
recently by both Variety and The Hollywood Reporter
as one to watch, Stanhope, like Bill Hicks before
him, takes delight in exploring taboo topics and in the process
gives the very foundations of American beliefs a brutal kicking.

"…there's
a kind of Olympic torch of extreme American comedy, which passed
from Lenny Bruce, through Richard Pryor and Sam Kinison, among others,
to the late Bill Hicks. Doug Stanhope is its latest, and equally
brilliant, bearer."
- The Independent.
(From review of Stanhope's Edinburgh Festival live show.)
The DVD
Doug Stanhope 'Word Of Mouth' will be released in the UK by VDI Entertainment on 1st May 2006.
