Norman Rockwell is Bleeding (Comedy Central, 2008) by Christopher Titus


This is a very personal album, and Titus' storytelling abilities are absolutely fantastic.  It's a stand-up album delivered by way of anecdotes more so than just straight-forward jokes.  I very much admire Titus' honesty in his delivery.  In my opinion, he is one of the most open comics ever.  Clearly, he has turned his struggles into something with great artistic value and that is something to be greatly admired.  Norman Rockwell is Bleeding is a masterpiece and it  comes across as a comedic catharsis for its creator.
