New Hicks compilation launched

A new compilation of Bill Hicks routines is to be released next week.

Philosophy: The Best of Bill Hicks collects 21 of the best routine from the renegade American comic's four existing live albums.

The material dates from 1990 to 1993 and covers his favourite topics: drugs, politics, sex, religion, and marketing.

The CD, priced £14.99, is released on Rykodisc on Monday. It is available from amazon.co.uk, which also has audio samples from the disc.
