The Monty Python Matching Tie and Handkerchief
The Monty Python Matching Tie and Handkerchief is the fourth album by the comedy group Monty Python, released in 1973. Most of the material was newly written for the album along with a handful of sketches from the third series of "Flying Circus", one from the second ("Bruces") and another from the first ("Pet Conversions"). The team were once again joined by Neil Innes, who provided a trio of rock music parodies for "The Background To History". The album was famously mixed and edited in a garden shed belonging to the father of producer Andre Jacquemin.
