"And looking very relaxed, Adolf Hilter on vibes - Nice"
Viv Stanshall I know but still makes me laugh.

"I've suffered a lot for my music.
"Now it's your turn."
RE the joke about The Beatles. Innes' biggest hit credit was the one he eventually got for Oasis's "Whatever". Funny.

Some Bonzo Dog genius. Heard in an interview with Neil Innes about Viv Stanshall that this beauty was Viv's idea.
Why not all go to the pub, have a liquid lunch, go back to the studio, all swap instruments to one you can barely play and see what happens?
Well this does:

A real loss, spent the late 60s and early 70s (and still occasionally) listening to Gorilla and Doughnut.
Neil was also a key ingredient in the short lived outfit GRIMMS (Gorman, Roberts, Innes, McGough, McGear, Stanshall) who were responsible for this (and many other) little gems.

Minstrel : [singing] Brave Sir Robin ran away...
Sir Robin : No!
Minstrel : [singing] bravely ran away away...
Sir Robin : I didn't!
Minstrel : [singing] When danger reared its ugly head, he bravely turned his tail and fled.
Sir Robin : I never did!
Minstrel : [singing] Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about, and valiantly, he chickened out.
Sir Robin : Oh, you liars!
Minstrel : [singing] Bravely taking to his feet, he beat a very brave retreat. A brave retreat by brave Sir Robin.
Minstrel : [singing] He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp Or to have his eyes gouged out and his elbows broken To have his kneecaps split and his body burned away And his limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin His head smashed in and his heart cut out And his liver removed and his bowels unplugged And his nostrils raped and his bottom burnt off And his penis...
Sir Robin : That's enough music for now, lads.
Minstrel : [singing] Bravely bold Sir Robin rode forth from Camelot. He was not afraid to die, oh brave Sir Robin. He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways, brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin. He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp, or to have his eyes gouged out, and his elbows broken. To have his kneecaps split, and his body burned away, and his limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin. His head smashed in and heart cut out, and his liver removed, and his bowels unplugged, and his nostrils raped and his bottom burned off and his penis...
Sir Robin : That's, uh, that's enough music for now, lads... looks like there's dirty work afoot.
Minstrel : [singing] He is packing it in and packing it up And sneaking away and buggering off And chickening out and pissing off home, Yes, bravely he is throwing in the sponge.

Very sad to hear this news.
I was a late comer to this chaps career.
Loved his work with the Bonzo Dog Doodah Band and also with Monty Python.
