Words To Sift By
His hits came fast 'n furious when there was music that make fun of itself so hard....His schtick is dated but he's ingrained in musical satire with all of the greats-
Short List that pops to mind from as many eras I can muster without google:
Rosemary Clooney
Betty Hutton
The Residents
Spinal Tap
Shel Silverstein
Mrs.Alva Miller
Garfunkel and Oats
Tom Lehrer
Jimmy Fallon
Louden Wainwright Jr.
Biff Rose (I cheated)
List goes on but my brain won't...
Fallon kills me with this;

Weird Al's never disappoints (except with ~75% of the tracks on each of his last several albums).
The "One Album Per Sifter" Quest (Rocknroll Talk Post)
I recently fell in love with Andrew Bird's 2001 'The Swimming Hour'. It is an eclectic blend of musical traditions, but put together in a way that feels special. It is intimate, passionate, dynamic and features some great playing. I think they recorded the performances live because you can feel the musicians vibing off of each other, (and also because there is one rhythmic flub in the second tune that suggests they tuned weren't tracked with a click). I also love that it is an 'album' and not just a collection of songs. There is flow and purpose from start to finish. The instrumentation is also very eclectic. It reminds me a bit of 'Poses' by Rufus Wainwright. Here are a couple tracks....

Glad you like it. Just quietly, I have a few Teddy Thompson tunes in my pq, one of which is another Leonard Cohen song, and another is a duet with Rufus Wainwright.
Teddy and Rufus are good mates.

Sheeeit, so do I, now! Thanks for that! He sounds very slightly like Rufus Wainwright.

PQ'ed http://www.videosift.com/video/Loudon-Wainwright-III-I-m-Alright
I clean up my PQ regularly, so there's not much in there, but this one is a great tune. I've grown to like Loudon Wainwright's folky performance.
