“Paris in the early morning has a cheerful, bustling aspect, a promise of delicious things to come, a positive smell of coffee and croissants, quite peculiar to itself. The people welcome a new day as if they were certain of liking it, the shopkeepers pull up their blinds serene in the expectation of good trade, the workers go happily to their work, the people who have sat up all night in night-clubs go happily to their rest, the orchestra of motor-car horns, of clanking trams, of whistling policemen tunes up for the daily symphony, and everywhere is joy.” PeopleIfsJoyNightCertainMorningCarPromiseExpectationsAspectTradeWorkersClubsSmellCoffeeWelcomeParisSatTunesPeculiarDeliciousCheerfulOrchestraAll NightHornsSymphonyMotorNew DayPolicemenSereneEarly MorningWhistlingUp All NightPull UpsShopkeepersNight ClubMotor CarsTramsCroissantsTune Up Book:The Nancy Mitford Omnibus Source: The Nancy Mitford Omnibus

“The second disk was taped at our all-night anniversary show. And some of those sets are taped at like 4:30 or 5 in the morning, when people are a little groggy and not doing what they would do if they knew it was being recorded. That said, that disk has an entirely different flavor. It's more experimental. It has more of the newcomers on it. It has people doing stuff that you won't see on Comedy Central or HBO specials.” PeopleIfsLittlesSaidDifferentShowsNightStuffMorningComedyFlavorAll NightHboDiskNewcomers Author:B. J. Porter
