Oh yeah, grab it if you see it (actually I think they did two, so maybe another out there for me to find). One of the things that makes it fun is the choir teacher guy, who looks a bit like Bob Odenkirk, sorta takes over the proceedings on a few songs, like, "ok, buddy, I don't think the Immaculata parents were paying for you to cut a demo with their daughters as your backing group". But it is a fun record; kind of a silly concept but it came out quite listenable.
