ya know i have 2 give he and viv stanshall mucho love of late. actually all the bonzos have lifted me spirits. just bummin due 2 bein lonely sad broke livin with family lustful and middleaged. thank u neil and yer crew,python 2.
How can you say he was a member of Monty Python?! He worked closely with Idle, Jones, and Palin on "Don't Adjust Your Set" and helped write several tunes for the Flying Circus, but does that make him a member of Monty Python? I think not, and I think a lot. He is obviously a comic genius and should be revered, but let's not embellish his C.V. His tunes for "The Rutles" are what he should be recognized for - Beatles parody every bit as creative and unique as the Beatles themselves.
@timdaughte All members of Python have acknowledged Neil Innes as the 7th Python. I think that qualifies him.
Also, it was the Bonzos who, working with pre-Pythons on "Do Not Adjust Your Set", taught them to think outside the box, as it were, and have been given the credit for inspiring Python's creative genius.
Neil Innes is recognized by critics in England as the most important voice in British musical comedy in almost a hundred years; Neil's Rutles work is only part of that legacy.
Most underrated living songwriter.
