Al And Mad

Mon Jul 05, 2004 8:38 am

And the editors of MAD appeared on Al's Behind The Music. And wasn't Al put into one of the little marginal cartoons-- sitting in a coffin, which puzzled him very much?

Ooooooo, any chance of you making copies?

MAD published a book called MAD about TV and Al wrote the Forward for it.

Those are all very cool. I think Al and Mad have a mutual respect for one another, and Al has said that he's been a fan of Mad for a long time.

Awesome finds.

Oh, and where did you find that CD set?

Dunno if anyone has posted this yet, but in the August 2002 issue, "50 Worst Things About Music" Al is on the cover (along with a lot of other peeps) and on the inside it lists him as: "Al Yankovic, only legit musician shown on this cover."

Oh yeah, that's over on the Rare Items page at the Mothership.

Mecca, my dad got me that set as a Christmas gift one year, so I don't know where he found it.
