What rare Al stuff do you have?

I own all of the albums that are available on vinyl(thanks to my dad) I own the VHS and Laserdisc versions of UHF (it took me a long time to find'em), the Ultimate star Wars Collection, (includes "Yoda" and Saga Begins" and the original EP of Another One Rides the Bus.

What is "The Ultimate Star Wars Collection" exactly? I've seen it mentioned before in other places, but could never figure out just exactly what it is, other than containing those two Al songs? Is it an actual release, or a bootleg, or what? Thanks.

If this is the same thing I'm thinking of, then these are three bootleg CD's that were made in Japan by Echo 3 Productions, and they sometimes pop up at sci-fi conventions or on eBay. They simply contain a boatload of Star Wars-related songs.

The first two are called "The Ultimate Star Wars Mix I" (with "Saga") and "The Ultimate Star Wars Mix II" (with "Yoda"), and the third is titled "Laughin' N Da Jammin' to Star Wars."

If anyone is dying to know, I can supply a track list to all three, but it's mostly the usual Star Wars stuff (Meco, mistitled Mark Jonathan Davis, etc.).

Well, I don't know if this counts, but an autographed (by Al) Peter and the Wolf CD. Plus, I have an autographed pic that was sent back to me in the mail that he actually wrote, "Hi Jeremy!" then of course signed it. I know the picture itself isn't rare, but I rarely see him put a message with the person's name. Again, maybe I am just ignorant of the meaning of 'rare' here. But anyway, that's what I have...

The rarest Al item I own is no doubt "The Authorized Al", which I got for my birthday this year. And I just got around to reading it last night... great book! :D

Other rarities I own are the Gump single and these glasses that were distributed at movie theatres when UHF came out. The latter also being a birthday present this year. :D

And even though it wasn't BY Al, I also have Prosthetic Lips, the fan-produced Al tribute CD.
