Thanks for uploading this. I had a cassette recording of it from when Alan Freeman once played it on his Saturday afternoon show. It got lost along the way.
@@BatemanTubeit was his publishers who sued on his behalf. He actually invited Noel and Liam to appear in the video for Shangrila, but in Neil’s words ‘they were busy having a fight!’😅
it's Halsall on the records, too ... indeed, a truly underrated talent!! there's a recording of him dueling with Holdsworth as he was replacing him in Tempest - he's great at mimicking different styles of players!!
@@GaryWayneHill64 It's fair, because it's on a record on top of the movie. Not many people would have bought that record if it wasn't for the Beatles' input. People have been sued for way tinier than this by the music industry. I'm glad that this is now settled and even the Beatles themselves are paying their respects for the late Neil Innes.
Neil Innes said he was credited with Lennon/ McCartney / Innes, but that he wasn't equally entitled to the credit as such. So the songs were basically credited to Lennon / McCartney, which he found very funny. To think that Lennon / McCartney would be credited with writing the likes of Cheese and Onions. Anyway it all seemed to get sorted with a lot less hassle than what George Harrison had to go through.
What a fucking good ending, so lennonesque as well ("Can you dig it?") They should have kept it in some way I got blisters on my.. ? I can't get the last word
Thanks to Neil Innes and the Rutles we have the Beatles' songs the Beatles forgot to write.
RIP Neil🎶🎵 your brilliance will never go cold🎶🎵🎶
"Do I have to spell it out? C-H-E-E-S-E-A-N-D-O-N-I-O-N-S ONO" Genius songwriter. Rest in peace, Ron Nasty x

Alan Freeman, another great voice we've lost. Al'right? Stay Bright. Not 'Arf.
RIP
oasis learned everything from this song
They learned everything from The Real People!!!
No wonder Noel and Liam were so defensive when people accused them of ripping off The Beatles...they were ripping off The Rutles
@@DrKennyWangto be fair, Neil successfully sued Oasis 😂

Epic ending!!
I bet that's Ollie Halsall in the pic at right.
Jeff R. It sure is
Yup. But I think it's Billy Bremner playing guitar on the recording :)
it's
Halsall
on the records, too ...
indeed, a truly underrated talent!!

nice!
Due to the court action by the owners of the Beatles music, this is now created as written by Lennon and McCartney
Lennon/McCartney/Innes

@@janskia The song actually predates All You Need Is Cash. It was written for The Rutland Weekend Television.

I think he says "I got blisters on my thumbs" but I can't make it out.
TheDudeMinds89 "Bum", actually.
the ending is more lynyrd skynyrd than lennon!
lennon wrote this song
almost :)
Well, not- but he played this song live !!
"influenced" but this time deliberately ;-)
