Jammin' in New York is George Carlin's 14th album and eighth HBO special, recorded on April 24 and 25, 1992, at the Paramount Theater, on the grounds of Madison Square Garden in New York City. Topics include the war in the Persian Gulf, similarities and differences among average Americans and language used at airports.
On-air HBO promos for the live broadcast on April 25, 1992, referred to the program as George Carlin: Live at the Paramount. Before the opening credits, the words "This show is for SAM" appear, a reference to comedian Sam Kinison, who had died in a car crash two weeks before the recording.[1]
The album won the 1993 Grammy Award for Best Spoken Comedy Album.[2] Carlin considered Jammin' in New York his favorite and best HBO special.[1]
