Bill Burr : Let It Go
He has other live performances that are great but the above mentioned is my favourite-

John Mulaney : New In Town and The Comeback Kid
Both very funny performances-

Loved Dave Allen. I don't think he'd get away with now though!

Saw Dave Allan live years ago and he was brilliant. Julian Clary in his days as the Joan Collins Fan Club was also hilarious. I loved the late Bill Hicks - more recently, Daniel Sloss' live shows are excellent.

I like Sean Lock, Rhod Gilbert (seen both live), Mickey Flanagan. I thought Bob Monkhouse was great for ad-libbing.
