Description

One of the more difficult "Weird Al" albums to find, especially unsigned. Most versions floating around have already been signed by Al. This one has not. Going to meet Al on his upcoming tour? Impress him by showing that you are true fan. 


Another One Rides the Bus is the debut extended play (EP) by American parodist "Weird Al" Yankovic. It was released in 1981 by Placebo Records. The title song is a parody of English rock band Queen's 1980 single "Another One Bites the Dust". The EP also features three other songs, all of which are original recordings. All four songs on Another One Rides the Bus later appeared on Yankovic's eponymous debut studio album; the three original songs were re-recorded for the album, while the title song is the same version that appears on the EP.

Another One Rides the Bus EP—of which only one thousand copies were made—was released to capitalize on the recent success of the titular parody. Yankovic borrowed money from Barret "Dr. Demento" Hansen to pay for the record, and he distributed them to records stores under consignment deals. Due to the underground success of this record, TK Records signed Yankovic and released "Another One Rides the Bus" as a single.
