Dead Parrot Society: The Best of British Comedy gathers sketches and music from witty British
comedians and musicians such as Peter Cook, Listen With Mother, and, of course, Monty Python
and its individual members Three extended sketches, Peter Cooks "Memoirs of a Miner," Graham
Chapmans "Oral Majority!," and Monty Pythons "Courtroom", are interspersed with the Portsmouth
Sinfonias classically silly interpretations of "The William Tell Overture," and "Pinball Wizard,"
and sketches and songs like Dudley Moores "Psychedelic Baby," John Birds "The Audition," and Neil
Innes "Protest Song " Python gems such as "The Dead Parrot," "Crunchy Frog," and "The Lumberjack
Song" round out Dead Parrot Society, making it a fun, if somewhat anachronistic, look back at
whimsical British comedy from the 60s and 70s.
