Soooo... this is real, right? It isn't him singing but it does sound like his accordion playing and backup vocals.

It's pretty funny, I actually think it's probably one of his better pieces from that era. Cool that we've finally been able to hear it after all the speculation.

Yeah, and I honestly thought it was going to be a dumb short song but it was a pretty funny song, almost 4 minutes.

Looks like we'll need to update the elusive tracks list, Eyeball Chair, now that Orgy on My Own has surfaced. I'm betting that collectors everywhere are going to want this. I do, and used YT downloader, and a file-converter to rip the audio. It's quite obscure to say the least.

Now that this has been found, what's the "new Holy Grail"? What tracks have yet to be found?

Thanks for sharing, Johnny! :bigups:

Crazy Cow Therapist, Pico and Sepulveda (1973) the guitar version of Mr. Frump in the Iron Lung, or the studio band version of It's Still Billy Joel to Me.

Either of these, or the Ballad of Chuck and Diane demos, before it was changed to Bukingham Blues.

Well, I'm still going to say a recording of Al singing this would be the Holy Grail. I am grateful to have finally heard it, but I would like to get an actual Al recording

Maybe the original version of American Slob (1976)?
We're gonna yodel like it's 1999!

I'm pretty sure crazy cow therapist isn't real.

And there's still the 2 home recordings of OOMO, including the keyboard version with Damaskas on Keyboards.

Also, we have the home demo of American slob, among other songs...There's still a bit we don't have.

-Pico And Sepulveda '73 - It is unknown if anyone owns this
-Pico and Repulsiva- Mentioned by Mike Solton
-Number One With A Bullet- With The Hollywood Off Ramp
-The Ballad of Chuck and Diane- 3 Versions, Demo to Buckingham Blues
-Mr. Frump in the Iron Lung (Guitar Version) Played on KMET at one point - I predict we'll get to hear this one in the future.
-American Slob (Solo Version)
-Psycho (Don't know anything about this)
-Dead Car Battery Blues (Alternate Take)
-I'll Be Mellow When I'm Dead (Home Demo)

A few live ones:

-House Of The Sesame Seed Bun
-Hocus Pocus
-You Never Gave Me A Tune-Up
-More Than a Filling
-The Elements (We know this exists, since an excerpt had been released)
-Gas Line Blues
-Year of The Fat
-Hot Dog & Apple Pie
-Give a Little Bit (of your lunch to me)
-Hey Food

Any of these could be the next "Holy grail."

Joel Miller himself has now commented on the video.
