Excellent album from a very talented guy!
Sep 2 2005
Format:Audio CD
This album was released in 1989, and is in part the soundtrack to "Weird Al" Yankovic's movie UHF, but most of its contents is not included in the movie. On this album, included in the movie, is the song "Money For Nothing/Beverly Hillbillies," the movie's theme "UHF," two clips from the movie, and an instrumental called "Fun Zone." All of those are quite good.
However, there's also a lot of great stuff on this album that is not included in the movie, such as "The Hot Rocks Polka," which is a polka medley of Rolling Stones songs. There are also some great parodies, along with some great originals. My favourite song on here is an original called "Generic Blues." Now, that one can sure crack listeners up!
A must-have for all "Al-oholics!"
Al strikes again!
July 3 2004
Format:Audio CD
UHF was a great movie, and Al topped it off by putting out a great soundtrack. It was great to hear the songs from the movie, such as Money For Nothing/Beverly Hillbillies and UHF, but Al also brought in new parodies and originals to complete this album. He's at his best in the originals. Attack of the Radioactive Hamsters from a Planet Near Mars has a lot of funny moments, as do Generic Blues and The Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota. For parodies, Al is seldom funnier than he is in Spam. It is truly an indicator of Al's awesome abilites. This album, just like its corresponding movie, is sadly underrated.

The hot rocks polka has nothing to do with the UHF movie, but it's Weird Al's best polka ever!

We got it all on UHF... the soundtrack that is.
After the middle-of-the-road Even Worse, Al made a movie, UHF, now a cult 80's film, and the soundtrack to it shows him back in form. How many hours did Mr. Read more

The "UHF" soundtrack and assorted novelty songs
In the great tradition of the Beatles's "Hard Day's Night" album, "UHF" not only presents all of the songs that appeared in "Weird Al" Yankovic's 1989 film of the same name, but... Read more

The UHF Soundtrack: A Review
UHF was a bust at the box office, but is acheiving cult status on dvd. The cd is fine for anyone who enjoyed the humor of "UHF," and the music of Mr. Yankovic. Look and see:

CD of DVD about TV? LOL!
Weird Al's only feature film UHF isn't a musical, so there isn't lot of music from the film to feature here. Read more

The twine ball is here.
This is the only CD in my collection which has a song about the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota. I hardly ever ask myself the question, "Are we there yet? Read more
