  1. Assuming these are the Rutles Vinyls versions you're posting - please keep it up, if you have more! As I think I commented elsewhere, nearly all of them were pulled from YouTube, and are more or less lost forever.

  2. Next week's 'The Shite Album' was going to be the last one, but I've been inspired to make up some more, and I now have all of them from this site http://rutlesriki.wikia.com/wiki/The_Rutles:_Complete_Discography so five more posts to come.

    1. If you need the new "Revolution 9" parody ("Evolution Number 10") from The Wheat Album, I can send that.

  3. Hello PJ. The second track "Time to Kill" could use an improvement in quality. Here's a YouTube video you can use. https://youtu.be/4AMY9SDkNAY?t=183 Otherwise, great album!

  4. Thanks for pointing that out, as the take that I used sounded fine to me, until I compared it with the other version, so link now updated.
