World of Weird Al Yankovic

The samples really do sound great. I'll definitely be buying it soon. I'll probably order another one of his albums as well.

I think I'm just going to buy it off Amazon. I hesitate to do so since my house must have an anti-UPS shield. Last time, a CD got scanned at our local depot here in southern California, then got scanned again that evening in New Jersey!!!! It must have bounced off that darn shield. That's a pretty big bounce, too. So, three days later, the "hey it's lost send me a new one" package came. Then two days after that the original showed up (quite beaten up by all that travel, too). So I sent that one back and everything was fine. GRRRR. Oh, and three years ago when I bought my camera, the first package came and the camera was broken! They had dropped it off on the doorstep... literally. (We were sitting in the living room and heard it ourselves). I guess they don't care to read the "Fragile" sticker. So I had to wait an extra 5 days for the replacement camera. At least Amazon is pretty quick with customer service. Oh, and those two examples aren't the only times. There have been others. Not quite as bad, but still.

Those samples were fantastic. I'll try hard to find a copy in the stores but if worst comes to worst, I'll try and get it online.

You can listen to samples. Sounds great. This album is going in my cart soon 

Thanks for sharing those samples!

I went to Best Buy on Friday and they told me it was only available online at bestbuy dot com.

  It's kind of a bummer that Jim's name isn't listed as an artist with that label; even if he's doing cover versions, he's still the performer.

There's a link to provide product info for people who have an account. Wonder if putting Jim's name there would make it searchable and bring this album up if someone searches for his name?

I got SKW from CD Baby, and let's just say the service makes me want to be a repeat customer. If I can't find it in the stores, I'll get it there.

I don't know if HH is offered at CD Baby. His Westernmost ones (Coconut Hat and SKW) are.

Edit: Btw I just bought HH and Livin's EZ from Amazon *Crosses fingers*

I couldn't find it in stores, either, so ordered from Barnes and Noble (www.bn.com) and it was here 2 days later. Great cd!! Jim's an amazing musician.

I agree with Miss Janine - CD Baby is a great place to order cd's. Their emails are priceless.

Hmm. Sounds weird, but maybe'll buy a copy.
