Most of the Beatles remasters are covering the
top spots on Amazon

The Stereo and Mono sets at 1 & 2

All told 16 of the top 25 on Amazon

A feat only equalled by the Rutles, I believe

Taking up the tale: Dick Jaws, an unemployed music publisher of no fixed ability:
"I liked the trousers right away. I'd been in the garment trade myself and knew a thing or two about inseams, and these were clearly winners. The Rutles themselves had many advantages: they were young, keen and above all very cheap, so I signed them up for the rest of their natural lives. Lucky really."

the inventors of the mockumentary genre!!!Spinal Tap gets all the credit for being first,but Eric Idle,Innes and co were much earlier! I have have seen the Rutles at least 15 times,and it gets funnier for each time!!

Give Rutles 2 - Can't buy me lunch
a miss though!

Appalling

"I feel good
I feel bad
I feel happy
I feel sad
Am I in love?
I must be love!!"

Poor Innes really got ripped off on those songs he
wrote for the Rutles album. I don't think he got a
cent actually..

THE RUTLES Archaeology:
"We've arived! And to prove it we're here"
