In 2018 Al's tour was comprised of just him and his band -- no parodies, no costume changes, just Al's original songs *EXCEPT* for the encore...  Each night of the seventy-seven date tour they would play a different cover song during the encore.  At some point after the tour Al uploaded the full show for every date to Spotify.  The YouTube video linked below is one fan's labor of love... He went through each show (in order) and pulled out the covers and mixed them together into an over four hour "concert" of those cover songs.  Most of these are full songs performed incredibly well and others not so much, but that's intentional (you'll understand when you hear).  If you check the video description there is a link to download .zip files to make four CDs worth of music.

My friend told me to stop quoting the Monkees. I thought she was joking. But then I saw her face.
