Release Notes:



"Weird Al" Yankovic is a true artistic genius in the classic sense of

the word. No other artist can parody a song or a music video without

being directly compared to the maestro. Throughout his career, Al has

offered up an alternate reality of sorts to the history of pop music,

lovingly re-casting hits of all genres into bizarre and hilarious songs

and videos that themselves have become hits. In fact, Al's work became

so synonymous with the hits they parodied that Michael Jackson gave Al

access to the "Bad" video set to make his classic "Fat" video! This is

to say nothing of Al's original songs which are as witty and endearing

as his parody work. Starting with his debut album in 1983 and

navigating a quarter century of popular song, The Essential "Weird Al"

Yankovic is the definitive collection (assembled by Al himself!) of his

masterful and enduring work. With songs from all of Al's studio albums,

this double CD set features 38 tracks comprising over 2 ½ hours of

music including "White & Nerdy," "The Saga Begins," "Eat It," "Like A

Surgeon," "Amish Paradise" and many more!
