Wow. No topic for it yet, and its what basically started his career. I really like this song, and the video :lookaround:

Do you mean the videotape from when he was in college? I agree... I think that unassisted young Al being manic about lunch meat is a hoot.

My Bologna is a great song! It was truly a stroke of pure genius. I really love the original "bathroom recorded" version. The video is great, too.

I enjoy My Bologna very much, and I think the bathroom version is even better than the ALbum version!

I dig that hat in the video! Stylin'!


As an inside joke, I've always referred to the faster album version as "The Extra Salty Remix" I've got way too much time on my hands.

My Bologna=Great stuff. And the best thing is Doug Fieger of the Knack got it right away. He was so cool about it from day one.

I need to hear the bathroom version! I don't think I've ever heard it--

It's a great song. I tried to learn it on the accordion but had the darndest time.

I will say this--- the song pops up in my mind EVERY TIME I'm at the grocery and go through the deli.

This is an awesome song ... I like it quite a bit (I also like the original "My Sharona"). My favorite line is the one that ends in Oscar Meyer ... just brilliant.

I forgot this topic was here. 25 years ago today, Dr Demento played this song for the first time.
