Description: A collection of over 50 Monty Python lyrics from the TV series and the films. The songs include The Lumberjack Song, Always Look on the Bright Side of Life and Eric the Half-a-Bee. The book, with a lot of silly pictures and music, is published to celebrate the Python Silver Jubilee. With some extremely silly pictures and quite a lot of music, this collection of over 50 Monty Python lyrics coincides with the 25th anniversary of the first Monty Python TV series in October 1969. From 'The Lumberjack Song' to 'Always Look on the Bright Side of Life', the Fairly Incomplete & Rather Badly Illustrated Monty Python Songbook does pretty much what it says on the cover, collecting up the cream of the Python team's musical output, from the four TV series and the various feature films. Included are such gems as 'Eric the Half-a - Bee', 'Sit on My Face and Tell Me That You Love Me', 'Bruces' Philosophers Song', 'Oliver Cromwell', 'The Knights of the Round Table', 'Christmas in Heaven', 'All Things Dull & Ugly', 'Every Sperm is Sacred', and 'Isn't it Awfully Nice to Have a Penis', amongst many others, all arranged with music for the piano and accompanied by Terry Gilliam's incomparable cartoons; Reissue of a classic Monty Python humour title; Original edition sold 10,000 copies; Arranged for Piano; Ilustrated by Terry Gilliam; With a foreword by 'Elvis Presley', and complete instructions on how to play the piano Terry Jones, Michael Palin, The Monty Python Team, Eric Idle, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Graham Chapman.Illustrator Terry Gilliam About the AuthorMichael Palin has written and starred in numerous TV programmes and films, from Monty Python and Ripping Yarns to The Missionary and The Death of Stalin.
