(Jay Sherman Voice) Buy My Book! Buy My Book! Buy My Book!

Hello, glorious people of Medium! I am writing this as someone who only recently remembered that he had a Medium account. And a little over four thousand followers.

Who knew? That’s pretty good for someone who hasn’t posted in something like two years.

Anywho, I am writing this to inform you, person who follows me on a Medium account I half-forgot I even have that if you are looking for a last-minute Christmas present for the geek in your life please buy the extended Ridiculously Self-Indulgent, Ill-Advised Vanity edition of my book, The Weird Accordion to Al.

It’s a lovingly illustrated (over 80 original illustrations by the great Felipe Sobreiro), 500 page magnum opus that covers every aspect and phase of “Weird Al” Yankovic’s career: every track on every one of his albums, including his obscurities album Medium Rarities and his collaboration with Wendy Carlos, The Compleat Al, UHF, every episode of The Weird Al Show and Al’s season of Comedy Bang! Bang! plus a chapter on the 2018 tour that gives the book its subtitle.

You can buy it here https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08DSSZL19?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tpbk_1&storeType=ebooks or here https://www.nathanrabin.com/shop but for the love of God please buy it!

This book has single-handedly kept me and my family out of the poorhouse this year! It is the perfect companion to your bathroom shelf, the ultimate guide to “Weird Al” Yankovic’s life’s work from the man who literally wrote the book on, and with Al, in the form of the 2012 coffee table book Weird Al: The Book (Rabin & Yankovic).
