Album of the Day

Should it be any surprise that the greatest of rock bands would inspire the greatest of rock spoofs? The Rutles were the brainchild of former Monty Python member Eric Idle, and any resemblance to a certain quartet from Liverpool was strictly intentional. With Neil Innes (of The Bonzo Dog Band) supplying the musical vision, the soundtrack to THE RUTLES mockumentary features 20 spot-on parodies that are almost as wonderful as the Beatle originals; one listen to “Ouch!” or “Piggy In The Middle” and you'll never hear “Help!” or “I Am The Walrus” quite the same way again. In honor of April Fools' Day, take a tragical history tour with Nasty, Stig, Dirk and Barry of THE RUTLES!
