I bought it when it came out. It is an essential CD to have. When OZ came out BP forgot to put my name in the liner notes(for pre-ordering as offered) so they sent me another copy of The Memorial Tribute. I gave i to a friend for present a few years back. Now I wish I would have kept it for selfish collectors reasons. I think the moustache was drawn by Matt Groening, not sure though. Chris I thought it was still available through Barfko-Swill.

(its all Black) I have this release - bought from ebay, quite a while ago. Rarity factor, I cannot say (Milhouse?), but it was a limited "pressing", only available thru Barking Pumpkin, so it was not widely released. I enjoy it well enough - certainly one of the better compilations released.
