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.
The album won a Grammy Award in 1993 for Best Spoken Comedy Album.
Before the opening credits, the words "This show is for SAM" appear. This is a reference to comedian Sam Kinison, who had died in a car crash two weeks before the recording.
Carlin considered Jammin' in New York his favorite and best HBO special.
This is also the first Carlin album to more-or-less contain the entire audio of his HBO special without interruption, deletion, or rearrangement.
