The Worst Best... Monty Python
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

1976 2LP original in gatefold. Saw cut. Monty Python’s album "The Worst...Best of Monty Python" is a compilation of some of the comedy troupe’s most iconic sketches and songs. Rather than being an original studio recording or a live performance, the album is a curated collection, drawing from earlier albums such as "Monty Python’s Previous Record," "Matching Tie and Handkerchief," and "Monty Python’s Life of Brian." The title itself is a comedic contradiction in typical Python style, suggesting both a "best of" and "worst of" simultaneously, poking fun at the very concept of compilation albums. The album aimed to provide listeners with a broad selection of Monty Python’s audio highlights, particularly those who may have discovered the group through their television or film work and were seeking an accessible introduction to their audio material.
