And Now For Something Completely Digital : The Complete Illustrated Guide to Monty Python CDs and DVDs
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This is the story of six men, five English and one from America, who, in the space of forty-five half-hour television shows, transmitted on the UK's BBC 2 (pretty near commercial suicide at the beginning) from the late ‘60s till the early ‘70s; four full length feature films; a bunch of albums; the odd single; and some pretty impressive books, transformed everything we know about comedy today. They were translated into German twice (Monty Python's Fliegender Zirkus), banned on the big screen (Life of Brian) and played sold out shows at The Hollywood Bowl-yeah, just like The Beatles!
The impact that the members of Monty Python have had around the world is incredible. Now, Python associate Alan Parker has compiled the definitive guide to all "Monty Python" CDs and DVDs.
• A must-have for all Python devotees
• All Monty Python CDs are being re-mastered and reissued from fall 2005 to spring 2006
• Includes previously unavailable material from the brand new Monty Python CD (released April 2006) and will be tied-in with the new CD
