Album Review

Another dip into the Python's recorded output (circa 1977, this was four albums), this compilation provides enough "hits" for the casual listener to serve as a good introduction to the group, though probably surpassed by numerous CD compilations since. Despite the disparate sources, a decidedly adept editing job holds the whole thing together. Includes "Cheese Emporium," "Nudge Nudge," and "Parrot," among others. The later CD issue contains a very different track order and artwork. ~ Ted Mills, All Music Guide
