Classic Monty Python
Ever wondered why fans can't resist quoting lines from Monty Python skits? They cackle something absurd and then break into fits of laughter leaving the uninitiated clueless?
I had this recording on a cassette tape when I was a kid. I played it so often it became stretched and unplayable. Today I was reunited with a recording that is a Monty Python classic. The Flying Circus is a great place to plug into the absurd, mind bending British humour and be introduced to their whacky world perspective.
Before you know it you will be cackling absurd lines and laughing out loud before you finish leaving others wondering what's going on. They really do 'shine out like a shaft of gold while all around is dark'.

Flying Circus Forever
As a long time fan of the Monty Python troupe, I've always appreciated their witty shtick based humor. This audio book helps me while forward deployed to Afghanistan and my only regret is that there are no other MP audio books with just the skits and not documentaries.

Monty Python is awesome, but this isn’t the best recording
The sketches included are good ones, but they aren’t the best recorded versions. If you’ve never heard Monty Python, I don’t suggest starting with this version.

Awesome
Incredibly funny and I found this to be developmental and maturative for a young man coming of age such as myself. I further highly recommend this book.

Maybe not for audio…
I love the Pythons, and it’s good to hear all of their best Flying Circus sketches, but there’s something lost without the video. The Dead Parrot sketch is still funny, but without seeing John Cleese screaming at the dead bird to try to wake it… well, it’s not quite the same. If you can’t get enough of them, try their autobiographies and other books on Audible instead.

Great, but no chapters.
A great CD is ruined as the formatting is messed up on this audiobook - there are just two chapters - the first 15 seconds, and the remaining 53 minutes. Want to jump ahead to a particular sketch, move the slider around and hope.

Classic, but, several are missing
Wish it was longer with other sketches. Has some I'm familiar with, real classics, though.

Took audio from TV show
That is it. Just cut the audio from one of the shows and ask money for it.
Still a little funny but i think the best part was lost.

classic python. very silly
here lies why so many English of a certain age have a sense of humour, can laugh at themselves and are courageous with what they say. Pity Python along with Private Eye aren't central to English education...
