I found it quite amazing when the MegaMart here had Permanent Record right on their selves with the other collections of such things.
Naturally, my mom had bought it for my b-day in June a year or two ago when my b-day is December. She told me to forget she bought it for me.
Riiiiggghhhtt.

You just never know where they're gonna stick Al. I've found WAY in Rock/Pop, Comedy, Children's and Easy Listening (egad!) Sometimes under "Y" but usually under "W".
This has been very annoying to me on several occasions, and sometimes the workers in the store don't know where Weird Al CDs are either. I've often wondered how many people end up not buying a WAY CD of just cuz they can't find it! Obviously the good fans will keep at it and track him down, but if you're just casually browsing you may just give up.

I've gotten all of my Al CDs from walmart or a locally owned record store near my house (besides Peter and the Wolf, which I had to get on ebay). I've seen Permanent Record on three or so different occasions, but my parents feel that I don't need four discs of stuff I already have. I need a job, man.

I've never found Al in the Childrens or Easy Listening sections.
Guess I should clarify... I have only found Al in the children's section on compilation albums (like the Disney ones.) But I have found him in easy listening.
Not that he's hard to listen to, I just wouldn't put him in the same category as The Carpenters...

But... there's a clear working relationship between the Architect and the Carpenters!
At a local Barnes & Noble, although if you look at the little bitty dividers between the CD's Al is under "Comedy," if you look at the larger signs above the racks, he's directly under "Spoken Word." Go figure.
