Burns and Carlin at the Playboy Club Tonight is the 1963 debut album by the comedy duo of Jack Burns and George Carlin. The album was actually recorded at a club named Cosmo Alley in Hollywood, California and not at the Playboy Club.[1] It was recorded in May 1960 but was not released until 1963.[2]

By the time of the album's release, Burns and Carlin had already split up amicably in 1962 to pursue separate endeavors. Burns teamed with Avery Schreiber and the duo were a successful comedy act until their breakup in 1974. As of 2008, Carlin continues to perform stand-up and record comedy albums.

This album has been reissued twice. In 1972, it was released as The Original George Carlin. In 1995, it was again released as Killer Carlin.
