Customer Reviews

The mystery has been unravelled!
When I first saw that Monty Python had put out a song book, I knew that, being a devout Pythonite, I simply had to buy this book! As I flipped through the magazine textured pages, my heart's burning desires to know the melodies and texts of every Python song were quenched! Everyone who is a Python fan should own a copy of this book. The animation, the silly notes and the songs themselves are hysterical!!!
