Apart from that, there’s not a weak album on the list. And the comics hail from across the country, so there’s that.
Horse Power
Vancouver-based comic
Jacob Samuel is technically one of the best stand-ups of the bunch. He’s perfected his wise, snarky delivery, and his material feels uniquely his own. But in
Horse Power (800 Pound Gorilla Records), something about his act seems too exact, almost chilly; there’s no warmth, nothing to endear him to us.

Tonight was another reminder.”
