As Monty Python was the first major British-comedy team without previous experience in radio or other audio-only forms of comedy, one would think that this would be a difficult transition. However, the new material on the album is uniformly excellent, and parts of the record quickly became fan favorites. In particular, John Cleese's song "Eric the Half a Bee," with its brilliantly twisting semi-philosophical lyrics and jaunty tune, and Michael Palin's "We Love the Yangtse," a precursor to his post-Python work as a travel-show host, are among the best songs the troupe ever did. An excellent mix of new material and old favorites, MONTY PYTHON'S PREVIOUS RECORD was the team's first great comedy album.
