Yep, that's what I got from RB and I love it all!

It's funny, I now have 2 trades going involving Al, and now I've told the other guy he might wanna hold off for a bit until I get these newer ones.

Think I have everything listed by Rev too (got them from Ripplin). As a matter of fact, those discs are going to be a x-mas present to a friend of mine in the ADR industry. ^_^

Might a mighty torrent package be released with all of this Al goodness? That way, it can get gotten to a lot of people at once.

Take care,

*salivates*

Wow. I need all of those discs. Hrm... Is there anyone out there who has the same discs as you? Or will have them soon? I don't have much to trade so I'd rather do B&P for the lot. Hrm. Please let me know.

The guy I got all those from is a trader and probably won't do B&P. I am working out something with Ripplin, though, so he should be able to do some distribution reasonably soon.

There's one I'm kicking myself for not having gotten way sooner (especially now that Demonoid is dead). It was a disc someone made that had the episodes of "Driven" and "Behind the Music" featuring Al.
klokwerk's avatar
Anyone want to preserve The Compleat Al? (A Mockumentary about Weird Al)
I remember that disc. I was trying to download that and Al-Music 6 (the 2-disc one) from Demonoid a long time ago when all the seeds died out. :/

I've had a look through my Weird Al Yankovic folders (WAY for short) and found I have the files below:

Straight Outta Lynwood Era (Was planning on putting together a disc called "Left Offa Lynwood"):
* 21 Weird Al Speech & Sound Ringtones (.rm format)
* White and Nerdy (1024x576 .avi - best quality version found so far)
* Trapped in the Drive-Thru (304x240 .wmv)
* Do I Creep You Out (.exe - Perhaps JibJab could supply a scalable flash?)
* Behind-the-scenes clip on making 'White and Nerdy' (Youtube .flv - 7m22s)
* HTML file of Rock & Roll Daily (Rolling Stones) interview with Al
* Al on Triple J radio station in Australia (20m53s - 96k mp3) (Nov 19 2006, 11 AM)
* 2006-09-20 - Bob Rivers (TR_5516).wma (8m41s)
* 5-27-03 - Mancow Interview on WKQX-FM.mp3 (8m03s)
* CD101 - weird_al.mp3 (64k 11m21s)
* The Rocking Comedy Show - Episode 17 - Special Weird Al Interview (Complete).mp3
* Bob & Tom Show: Live at the Laugh Hole (weird_al_yankovic_sm.mov - 1m18s)
* 2006-09-18 - Bob and tom.mp3 (29m18s - 32k)

AL-TV (Divx):
#5: 1988-04-20 - Even Worse (687 MB)
#7: 1996-05-23 - Off the Deep End (696 MB)
#9: 2003-06-17 - Poodle Hat (269 MB)
#10: 2006-12-15 - Straight Outta Lynwood (370 MB)

Bootleg/Unofficial Albums:
* Lestatkatt's Ultimate Collection of Rare Tracks (6/14/06)
* The Poodle Hat Heard Around the World [Live @ Pacific Amphitheatre, Costa Mesa, CA, USA (July 21, 2004)]

Other:
* 2003-07-09 - Weird Al Yankovic on The New Tom Green Show (.wmv 320x240)
* Extreme Makeover bit from the Al-TV #7 DVD (managed to snag that VOB at least)
* Uncle Muscles Hour Promo - Chop Suey.flv

Also, the two DVDs that I never managed to grab from Demonoid were; the above-mentioned one with 'Behind the Music' and 'Driven' and one that contained all these:
- There's No Going Home
- VH1 to 1
- The Tonight Show
- Attack Of the Show
- Ebay Live
- The Late Show

Finally, I have this snippet of text but never managed to capture the video it mentions. Don't know if it's still there, don't have time to check at the moment, though:
At Rehearsals.com, there's video clips of Taylor Hicks being interviewed and practicing songs. About 5 minutes 40 seconds in, he mentions Al's parody and slips in "Do I Creep You Out" during the titular lines.

Sorry for the lengthy reply

Lestatkatt (who compiled that "Ultimate Collection") is who I got all this stuff from, I trade with him pretty frequently. There's an updated 7-disc version of the Ultimate Collection out now.

Also, the disc I have with the videos for "Drive Thru" and "Creep", the videos are sourced from some Music Video On Demand TV service, so they look real nice.

What's VH1 to 1?

Does this answer your question?

I'm very glad this stuff is making way. I'm a huge Weird Al fan, and I hope this makes its way onto a torrent tracker. Pardon the expression, but I'm a real newb at trading. If there's anything I can do to help, let me know.

PMs would be much appreciated!!!
