  1. #Listening to the 1969 album
    Tadpoles by the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band;

    There's a track that starts with a posh-sounding gentlemen trying to interview passers-by about shirts. It's not surprising that these folks shared personnel with Monty Python, in the form of Neil Innes.

  2. "Ladies and gentleman, I've suffered for my music, now it's your turn"

    Remembering Neil Innes who was born today 9th December 1944, today would have been his 80th birthday

  3. Today’s listening is ’Recollections-Le Duck’s Box Set’, the 2012 compilation by Neil Innes.

    This compiles his output from after the end of the Bonzo Dog Band up to after the end of the 3rd series of the Innes Book Of Records in 1981.

    Neil Innes was the master of pastiche (or should that be homage?) and there are a multitude of musical styles to be enjoyed here.

    For example, the track ‘Godfrey Daniel’ is a perfect Elton John pastiche!

    He was a talented man!
