Does anyone know why Pretty Fly For A Rabbi and Albuqurque are not included on iTunes with the rest of the Running With Scissors album?

Albuquerque is probably an album only track because of its sheer length. I don't know why "Rabbi" would be excluded, though. "Angry White Boy Polka" is album only with Poodle Hat for some reason. Maybe they had trouble acquiring rights to the original?

Actually, I think Al's recently settled lawsuit with Sony might be the reason for these non-listings on iTunes.

Albuquerque is available on iTunes on The Essential CD. I don't think that's the reason though why it's not available for Running With Scissors. Lots of the same Weird Al songs are available more than once on iTunes. So, now it's only Pretty Fly For A Rabbi that's not available.

If you visit the mothership, you'll notice all the company logos for Al's record labels that used to be at the bottom are now gone. One of two things must be going on here...

1. Al is planning to ditch his current label after all.
2. This was another glitch that came with updating the site. After all, a bunch of the pages came up with 404/error messages a few days ago. They're back now, but Ask Al looks like ti did back in 2007.

Does anyone know why The Food Album and the TV Album are not on iTunes? They used to be! Will they be returned?
