 Rykodisc Catalog - Dangerous - Bill Hicks
On his first CD release from 1990, Dangerous, Hicks unleashes on the audience his thoughts about homelessness ("Modern Bummer"), smoking ("Smoking"), drugs ("The War on Drugs"), the state of rock & roll ("We Live in a World..."), and the decline of intellectualism ("Flying Saucer Tour") in late-'80s America.
Dangerous sets the tone for the rest of his stand-up CDs.
He is bound to offend just about anybody who listens to him, but for every offense taken, there are numerous philosophical truths he points out while simultaneously forcing his audience into convulsions of gut laughter.

 Bill Hicks - Dangerous: Album Review
On the intro to this routine, Bill famously informs the audience that he's recording this performance for an album and not to worry, funny material and laughter will be dubbed in later.
Anyhoo, Bill's take on smoking on this album was one of the better things he ever came up with.
The "modern bummer" the title of this track refers to was the homeless problem that had gotten so bad during the time in which this was recorded.
