Not clips but different material then his aired specials, my favorite clip would be from one of those

"So I'm Bill, 23 years old, in the sexual prime of my life.......god are my arms tired" that or the classic, it's just a ride, or positive lsd news story.

It sucks looking at comedians you like from back then compared to now, with the vastness and availability of things thanks to the internet and tv, comedians now are forced to make new material constantly or become irrelevant, while back then when it wasn't so easily spread, they could easily do the same set over and over and over and chances were it would be the first time someone was seeing it.

You do that now and you're a hack who ran out of jokes, back then it was just the way of doing comedy, which sucks since Hicks is my favorite and I would of loved to see a new hour every year. Carlin was the first who changed how comedy was done I believe, or atleast the first headliner who scrapped his special every year and made a new one, which got mimicked by other comedians who are now at the top of todays comedy game, like louis ck and all them.

I love how comedy has changed though, now I get to see a new special every year from my favorites and if I actually go to the show, it's material I haven't seen in previous specials.

Arizona Bay and Rant in E-minor also have some different material, if you like comedy enough to listen to it without seeing it, they're pretty enjoyable. One of them was done and editted after he had already passed, so I think it has some similar material in it though. I believe it was Rant in E-minor.

This one also has some used material, but he snuck in bits I haven't seen him do in his specials. The sobriety test one being hilarious.

I like all of bill hick's clips.

Something there is mysteriously formed,
Existing before Heaven and Earth,
Silent, still, standing alone, unchanging,
All-pervading, unfailing,
I do not know its name; I call it tao.
If forced to give it a name, I call it
Great (ta). Being great, it flows out;
Flowing out means far-reaching;
Being far-reaching, it is said to return.


It's just a shot away..

As a comic who died young and well before the internet age introduced the idea of updating your entire hour of material every year, it's no surprise that a lot of clips show the same material. Comedians used to do the same material for basically their entire careers before mass media became so commonplace. Although if you listen to the albums Dangerous, Relentless, Rant in E-minor and Arizona Bay, it's all different material.
That said, my two favs are probably the Canadian TV footage "Relentless" (not to be confused with the album), and "Rant in E-minor". No, they're not clips per se, but I think like any of the best comics, Hicks is best appreciated in the greater context of the show itself.
