    The Greatest Of the Hits

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jan 26, 2009

    Pros: EVERYTHING

    Cons: There's only 10 songs!!

    I do not own this album, but I have heard it all, and this album is AWSOME-RIFIC!! It has all of your favorite Al songs, (yes, even going way back to Ricky!) and what would a Greatest HIts album be without Eat It? Seriously. Al really brought out his... best with this album. I wish I DID own it, it's so great! If you are a CPFOA, or a beginner, this is a great album!! Read more Less

    Though 1989's Greatest Hits only covers the first half of "Weird Al" Yankovic's career, it nevertheless features nearly all of his best work, with classics such as "Eat It," "Fat," and "I Lost on Jeopardy" chief among its highlights. The collection takes a fairly even amount from each of Yankovic's early albums -- Weird Al Yankovic, In 3-D, Dare to Be Stupid, Polka Party, and Even Worse -- thus gathering "Like a Surgeon," "Living With a Hernia," and "Ricky" in one place. The small, parody-heavy track-listing may disappoint die-hard Yankovic fans; indeed, some of his original work from In 3-D is better than a few of the parodies that wound up on the collection, and it seems that by 1989 Yankovic deserved to have at least a dozen songs on his greatest hits album. Regardless, Greatest Hits is still the most consistent and concise album in his catalog, and a great introduction to his very special brand of musical humor.

Biography

Weird Al Yankovic

The foremost song parodist of the MTV era, "Weird Al" Yankovic carried the torch of musical humor more proudly and more successfully than any performer since Allan Sherman. In the world of novelty records -- a genre noted for its extensive back catalog of flashes-in-the-pan and one-hit wonders -- Yankovic was king, scoring smash after smash over the course of an endurin... Read more
