This DVD represents everything the format can offer in a music video. It has all of Al’s videos, with stereo surround and 5.1 tracks, plus some extra clips from Al’s Saturday morning cartoon show and his 1981 TV debut on Tom Snyder’s Tomorrow Show. The videos are presented in random order; you can really see that Al’s 80’s videos hold up quite well in comparison to his 90’s videos. Here’s the track listing:
1. Fat
2. Amish Paradise
3. It’s All About the Pentiums
4. Smells Like Nirvana
5. You Don’t Love Me Anymore
6. Bedrock Anthem
7. Gump
8. Jurassic Park
9. Headline News
10. Dare to Be Stupid *my favorite*
11. Eat It
12. Like a Surgeon
13. UHF
14. Money For Nothing / Beverly Hillbillies
15. One More Minute
16. I Lost On Jeopardy
17. This Is the Life
18. Living With a Hernia
19. Spy Hard
20. Ricky
21. Christmas at Ground Zero
22. I Love Rocky Road
23. Bob
24. The Saga Begins
As you can see, no Weird Al fan should be without this DVD. I’d rate it 6 stars if I could.
This DVD is awesome! It includes all 24 of Al’s music videos, and they all look and sound great. The DVD is slightly different from “Weird Al Yankovic: The Videos” because the videos on this collection are not in order. They mix them up, and it makes it even more fun to watch them. The DVD also has some great special features. These include a rare 1981 performance from the old NBC Tomorrow Show. It’s a performance of “Another One Rides the Bus”, and Al didn’t even have a band yet. It was just John “Bermuda” Schwartz banging on Al’s accordian case. It’s really cool to see such an old performance! The DVD also includes a couple of clips from the old “Weird Al Show”. These are “Lousy Haircut” which was also played on Al’s recent concert tour, “Lasagna”, and “Livin’ in the Fridge”. It also includes a photo gallery and onscreen lyrics. Overall, this DVD is jam packed with entertainment!
