IT'S... a brand new show! Yes, as webcast on January 26, 2020: We were saddened yet inspired by the then-recent passing of Terry Jones, core member of the iconic British comedy troupe Monty Python's Flying Circus (which we literally grew up with) so we put this show together to pay a remixed and artistically rendered tribute to Jones' life and Python's work and influence. Neil Innes, who wrote a lot of the songs heard in the program, also died shortly before Jones. We present some of our personal favorite bits from Python's TV show, movies, records, and live performances including many, many rare fan-made remixes we hunted down of which we are presenting (in our humble opinion) the best efforts. By no means a comprehensive treatment (no dead parrots), the program nevertheless serves as a primer for those not familiar, as well as a sonic stroll down memory lane for fans, and a 'Whitman Sampler' of ancillary projects represented herein. It is our hope that this tribute peaks the interest of the listener and compels even more exploration of the vast Python oeuvre via official sources. A 3 hour mix.
