Tons of Unreleased Joan Rivers Material To Be Released in 2021

(via Variety)

Of all the forces to be reckoned with in comedy, late comedy legend Joan Rivers was one of the most renowned, if not the most renowned. Rivers carved out an empire with her comedy, seemingly with her own will and determination, and kept it going right until she passed away in 2014.

Comedy Dynamics has collected “hundreds of hours of content from the Joan Rivers Estate, with plans to release a box set and digital albums.”

There’s no specific date announced yet and exactly how many hundreds of hours that Comedy Dynamics has or how much of it they’ll plan to release has yet to be determined, but it ought to be a treasure trove of not only following Rivers’ through decades and decades of comedy, but also seeing how comedy itself shifted as reflected through Rivers (someone who adapted as much as she could throughout the entirety of her very, very lengthy career).

In fact, this release might cover more time than any other comedy release in history including the multi-decade, multi-album The Chronicles of Federman. Whenever 2021 comes around, we’ll get to follow the Joan Rivers rabbit hole as deep as it probably goes.

UnCabaret Presents Another Posthumous Album “Judy Toll: Shareaholic”

One of Los Angeles longest running independent comedy institutions, UnCabaret, has been releasing collections of some of their favorite performers, some of which are unfortunately no longer with us. So far, they’ve made a collection of performances from Taylor Negron and now have gathered up a selection of performances from the late writer and comedian Judy Toll.

Before Toll passed away in 2002, she had written for anything from Curb Your Enthusiasm to Boy Meets World to Red Shoe Diaries. You can only imagine what sort of comic mind can successfully span a range of shows like that. 

As a stand-up, she was fiercely honest and personal, but had such a spirited persona that convinced crowds to take the fun, self-deprecating ride through her life of tumultuous love, weight-loss/gain, etc.

Shareaholic is the only album that’s currently available, entirely recorded live at various performances at UnCabaret from years ago. You can get it now from Comedy Dynamics.

A New George Carlin Album of Unreleased Material Might Be Posthumously Released

It’s been over 6 years since the legendary comedic force known as George Carlin passed away. Along with a new website to commemorate Carlin, an album of previously unreleased material might be on the way as well. 

Let’s hope all of this does indeed happen soon.
