In 2002, all three of the original "Lessons" were re-released on vinyl, as well as for the first time on CD, on a collection entitled "Ultimate Lessons". This compilation also featured Cut Chemist's "Lesson 4", as well as several live collaborations featuring Shadow, Cut Chemist, Steinski himself, and Shortkut. Although it was widely available at the time shortly after its release it can be difficult to track down today; this is most likely a bootleg or unlicensed recording due to the dozens of uncleared samples. It is common practice for such releases to be printed in small numbers to avoid the unwanted legal attention of the copyright holders.
