58 Where can I get the music from "The Simpsons"?

Currently three albums, and singles associated to the first released have
been released. "The Simpsons Sing the Blues," "Songs in the Key of
Springfield" and "The Yellow Album." Singles from the former include:

        The Simpsons Sing the Blues     Album   CD, MC, Vinyl.
        Do the Bartman                  Single
                CD single, release version. 12" vinyl release.
        Deep, deep trouble              Single
                CD Single, Promotional & release version. 12" vinyl release.
        Sibling Rivalry                 Single
                CD Single, release version. (12" Vinyl?)

The opening theme from Season One appears on Danny Elfman's CD, "Music for
a Darkened Theatre." The version of the theme used in subsequent seasons
is available on "Television's Greatest Hits" volume 7, `Cable Ready'
(Catalog# - TVT 1900-2). A longer guitar rendition is on Danny Gatton's
disc "88 Elmira Street."

There are also CD singles in existence for "Do The Bartman" and "Deep, Deep
Trouble" which contain remixes of those songs not on the album or cassette
singles. Information on these, and the tracklist for "Songs in the Key of
Springfield" exist in the FAQ on the WWW. Rumor has it that a "Sibling
Rivalry" CD single was also created, but no confirmation exists for this.

The second album, "The Yellow Album," which was on an exceedingly long
delay, was finally released November 24th, 1998--six years after the album
was recorded late in 1992. Information about the album is available
through The Simpsons Archive at <http://www.snpp.com/news/pr10_29_98.html>.
