His father Nick always instilled a personal philosophy in which you should do what makes you happy in his young son Alfred, which led to the latter's musical career Right around Alfred 7th birthday, a salesman came by his school offering music lessons given the choice between the guitar and the accordion.

他的父親尼克總是向他的小兒子阿爾弗雷德灌輸一種個人哲學，即你應該做讓你快樂的事情，這導致了後者的音樂生涯。就在阿爾弗雷德7歲生日前後，一個推銷員來到他的學校，提供音樂課程，讓他在吉他和手風琴之間選擇。

Yankovic credits dr demento with the start of his career and has said quote if there hadn't been a doctor demento, I'd probably have a real job.

揚科維奇把自己職業生涯的開始歸功於德門託醫生，並曾說過，如果沒有德門託醫生，我可能就會有一份真正的工作。
