Summary
Just as we did for The Simpsons Sing The Blues, we're joined by Alex Navarro from Nextlander to discuss the other novelty album from Springfield. Yes, it's time for us to cover the barely-released oddity The Yellow Album! And we're chatting about it just when it was planned to be released, between the fourth and fifth seasons. But why was it released in 1998? How was there a lost Prince song on it? Who worked on it and who held it back for six years? After a lot of research, we have answers to all that, and then we review all the songs in one epic podcast full of love and commandments!
