 Best of Weird Al Nov 02, 2008
I really enjoy his earlier parodies. Maybe the original songs were better back then compared to today's lyrics, so his work was great as well. I have always liked Another one rides the bus.
 Great Comedy CD Jul 04, 2008
I've been a fan of Wierd Al since I was 12 when my friend introduced me to his music. I have now introduced my brother who is 12 to his music. Me and my brother love to laugh and listen to his silly sense of humor. And this cd is no exception. It is all funny, and my main reason for getting this album was the song he did live on the Dr. Demento show, another one rides the bus. But all the songs on this cd are very funny. If you need or want a great laugh buy this album.
More like "Punk Al " Yankovic! Apr 14, 2008
Although it seems strange to call anything Al's recorded "Raw", that's what this album is, it's like wacky punk rock.
I say this mostly, due to the poor production quality, but that's what makes the album sound so great. Also, the songs are a little more (again strange to say it) "edgy" with less focus on parodies and more non-PC lyrics.
Al's youthful growl/whine soars on rebellious tunes like "Happy Birthday" and "I'll Be Mellow When I'm Dead".
While his slimy, lounge-singer persona shines through on "The Checks In the Mail" and "Such A Groovy Guy".
And of course, "Mr. Frump in the Iron Lung" would be perfect if Al ever did an "Unplugged" with just Al, his accordion and a stool.
Although Al has only gotten better with time, this is a great start and just as enjoyable as any of his latter albums.
I suggest that devoted friends of Al and Dr. Demento fans buy this one.
 a classic Apr 06, 2008
I have to say that In 3-D and Dare to Be Stupid are by far better musically, but this is a classic and any true Weird-Al fan should definately own it.
The music quality on the CD is pretty good, and better than that of my old tape copy.
"I'll be mellow when I'm dead!" Nov 29, 2007
This CD has one of my favorite songs in addition to the rest of Weird Al's strangeness. One of my favorite CDs while in Baghdad and I'm sure it will be one of yours too!
