The Rutles - All You Need Is Cash (30TH Anniversary Edition) flac album

The Rutles is a soundtrack album to the 1978 telemovie All You Need Is Cash. The album contains 14 of the tongue-in-cheek pastiches of Beatles songs that were featured in the film. The primary creative force of the Rutles' music was Neil Innes, the sole composer and arranger of the songs.

Complete your The Rutles collection. Wonderful and loving parody of a band you may have heard of, called the Beatles starring Eric Idle (of Monty Python fame), Neil Innes (Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band) and even appearances from Michael Palin, Paul Simon, two Rolling Stones (Mick Jagger and Ronnie Wood) two Ghostbusters (Bill Murray and Dan Ackroyd) and two Blues Brothers (Dan Ackroyd (again!) and the late John.

A recurring problem with Idle’s non-Python writing, such as the 1970s series Rutland Weekend Television (from where the Rutles sprang) is that he overplays his hand, riffing on the one good joke until it is as dead as a Norwegian Blue.

Not only did "All You Need is Cash" spawn a popular soundtrack, which was reissued in 1990, it inspired songwriter Neil Innes (Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band) to write the 1996 album The Rutles Archaeology, which coincided with The Beatles Anthology. I didn't realize how much Beatles fans liked the Rutles until I was invited to go to a Beatles fest in 1994, Innes told Yahoo Music. and one in New York and I spent hours and hours signing Rutles albums

Rutland Weekend Television takes a look at the Pre-fab Four: Dirk, Barry, Stig and Nasty; better known as the Rutles. This documentary follows their career from their early days in Liverpool and Hamburg's infamous Rat-Keller, to their amazing worldwide success. A parody of Beatlemania and the many serious documentaries made about the Beatles. Genre: Comedy, Music. Actor: Eric Idle, Neil Innes, John Halsey, Ricky Fataar. Director: Eric Idle,Gary Weis. Country: United States, United Kingdom.

One of the early mockumentaries, The Rutles is also significant as a one-off convergence of the Beatles, Monty Python, Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band and Saturday Night Live. Creators Eric Idle and Neil Innes were pals of the Beatles, but that didn't inhibit their natural comic instincts, such as having their Yoko Ono substitute dress as a Nazi or getting John Belushi to lampoon litigious manager Allen Klein. The music is perhaps the main reason why this is considered a classic. If you weren't in on the joke you'd probably think these were real Beatles tracks. Also out. Christmas On Mars The Flaming Lips' eccentric lo-fi sci-fi, directed by Wayne Coyne (who plays an alien, of course).

Instead of travelling to India to be with the Maharashi, The Rutles caught the train to Bognor Regis to be with Arthur Sultan but as that journey to the centre of their own minds failed, they put all their efforts into their Tragical History Tour. The look of All You Need Is Cash only tells a part of the story, though. All the songs sound great with Innes not only getting the songwriting just right but Ollie Henshall doing the same for the recording. A Girl Like You does sound exactly like the early pop of The Beatles and Piggy In The Middle has the thick sound effects of the psychedelic years while Barry Wom's Living In Hope is the kind of jaunty song that Lennon and McCartney might have given to Ringo to sing. It sounds great with the stereo soundtrack doing justice to the songs and presenting the dialogue, effects and screaming.

On 17 March 2008, all four movie Rutles (Innes, Idle, Fataar and Halsey) reunited for the first time at a 30th anniversary screening of All You Need Is Cash at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood. The event included a question and answer session and performance by members of the tribute show "Rutlemania" which ran for a week at the Ricardo Montalban Theater in Hollywood before doing a week in NYC at the Blender Gramercy Theater.
