Bill Hicks' banned Late Show with David Letterman set from October 1, 1993.
Kinda cool for Letterman to air it finally. I still miss Mr. Hicks. Such a genius comedian. I saw him perform in Austin a zillion years ago. I feel lucky.
God bless the original Outlaw of Comedy...Bill Hicks was so far ahead of his time, as Letterman finally conceded in this interview. The part should never have been cut but Letterman felt pressured to conform.

Funny, but to call this cat a "genius" or "so far ahead" is absurd. He'd laugh at that too.
Quality acts just as good come and go at comedy clubs all over and sadly some get overlooked.
