I never thought the Rutles could have bootlegs. They really are a Kin to The Beatles. I'm going to have to start looking for Neil Innes' music now I guess.
Innes is a bleedin' genius! I mean this guy is definitely from the same musical gene pool as Lennon/McCartney. That's why his so-called forgeries are brilliant in their own right.
This is a lovely song waiting for a different treatment: which it gets in the Innes Book of Records, video clip recently posted. Innes is a real one-off, I don't know anyone else who brings this particular mix of comedy, satire, surrealism and spot-on parody to his song-writing. And when he wants he can be genuinely moving: think "Kenny and Lisa" or "Time to Kill". Genius indeed. 7th Python? Maybe, the CV bears that out: but he doesn't have the vicious nihilism of the others. He's too nice!
I know this comment is from a long time ago... But, there's a version by GRIMMS (A band, Neil Innes was there) and it's finished with a coda that goes "Slow down...". Very emotional; it's sounds like "Golden Slumbers" to me.

Songs I Hear: You Never Give Me Your Money, Because, Come Together, Good Day Sunshine, I’ve Got A Feeling, Something, Here There And Everywhere, Golden Slumbers, Carry That Weight
@BeatlesNRutlesBootle Wisely too... I mean it's a nice Innes song, but I agree it doesn't really sound like it'd fit in with the rest of the Rutles catalog. Although Neil can make almost anything sound Rutely.... case in point, if you dig deep enough you'll find earlier versions of ShangriLa that don't sound very Rutles-like - but Neil took it and Rutled it up pretty damn good! Met Neil briefly at a Beatlefest once - you couldn't meet a nicer guy!
@Miracle490d Well, both of those albums are rarities collections - "Sgt. Rutter" has a live performance, movie audio and the rare Dirk & Stig 45; "Hard Days Rut" has a few Rutle demos, and mostly Neil Innes stuff - Bonzo Dog Band, Grimms, and I think the Womble Bashers.
@Miracle490d Sure, there's a ton (usually repeating the same material) - "Short and Curlies" is the best one, I think. There's also "Hard Day's Rut", "Sgt. Rutter", "Sweet Rutle Tracks", "Rutland's Rare Rutles Revisited", "Dirk Is Deaf", "Yesterday's Leftovers", "The Savage Young Rutles", and a few others.
@SecretTimeWarp I thought Hard days Rut and other titles on the Rutles album was just gag names of albums that didn't exist. I'll have to look for the Rutles more now that I know there is more than two albums. Are there other songs or versions on these? I know a Beatle Bootleg collector, so I've got to hear alot that's not on the general market. "Bad to me" was a Beatle song they sold, they only recorded a demo. I'm looking though you had an instrumental interlude before the middle8 was made.
i hear "golden slumbers." piano figures prominently in the intro. @0:24-0:31 parodies "once there was a way / to get back homeward." then @0:59 the shift from minor to major parodies the shift to "golden slumbers fill your eyes."

Beatles parody aside, this actually a pretty great song.
Songs i hear :
Come together (intro)
You never give me your money
Golden slumbers
Carry that weight
And a little of good day sunshine at 2:41
And "the end"

Beatlemaníaco/Star Wars Fan Do you have a link to the song?

I hear Something

kinda reminds me of 'where are we now' (bowie ) in places
Definitely sounds like Ollie singing harmony!
Nice song

First time Ive heard a song from Neil Rutkes sing that doesnt sound like the Beatles - at least not on the pop chorus
Am I correct in thinking that John Halsey would've played drums on the GRIMMS version as well?
I think this would've made a great Rutles song. It kinda sounds like Here, There, And Everywhere if you ask me.

*Here, There, And Everywhere, and I Got A Feeling.
This is better than some official Rutles songs
