Neil Innes - Taking Off & The Innes Book Of Records. CD. (Hux Records - HUX061) Massive 2 on 1 by Neil Innes who is one of the most important figures in British musical comedy/song. He has the rare ability of a side-splitting satirist who can also write, catchy pop songs. After the demise of the Bonzos, he went on to work with, among others, Eric Idle and Monty Python.This CD includes two of his best loved solo albums, released together on one CD for the first time. "Taking Off" from 1977 and is a collection of songs ranging from the corny country of ‘Crystal Balls’, to the sugar coated offering of ‘La Vie En Rose’. In between we have songs about love, death, sex, murder, fantastic places, God and religion.‘The "Innes Book of Records" was from 1979 which contained the very lovely instrumental ‘Theme’, plus tales of teenage love in ‘Kenny and Liza’, and married life in ‘Love is Getting Deeper’. The 8 page booklet features extensive liner notes and rare photographs
