He first released the 2006 interviews, then the 2003 interviews, then the 1999 interviews, then the 1996 interviews, more or less, right?

Wow, thanks Huggins!
So if we accept this to be the exhaustive definitive list, how many of the 32 would we expect Al to post on YouTube and Twitter in the coming months?

I remember seeing the James Brown interview on YouTube briefly a few years back. Now, it is forever lost to the ocean of times. :unsure:

Back when I was doing AL-Tube Friday, I wanted to post the James Brown interview but I couldn't find a complete version in non-atrocious quality. Maybe someday...

And honestly, I don't think Al will personally post any interviews from before 1996 - I could be wrong, but I don't think he's particularly proud of them, by and large. He still shows bits of the '96 interviews in concert because they're of such high humor caliber, but he never shows any older "glasses and moustache" interviews.

Still, I'd say it's a good chance he'll eventually post the Steven Tyler, Jessica Simpson, Mariah Carey, Robert Plant and Paul McCartney '96 clips. And if I'm wrong, and he DOES eventually post the others, I'd say the best chances are those for Sting, Bruce, Ozzy, George Harrison and Prince.

Thanks for that comprehensive list, Fred!

Yeah, and I don't really see how he would convert those old '80s interviews in HD or why he would even bother...it's not like any specific era of them were funnier than the others or anything, but somehow the '80s ones seem the corniest...
