Monty Python's Flying Circus - Main Theme
The Monty Python Connection
In my introduction, I forgot to mention the profound effect that Monty Python’s Flying Circus had upon me. During my high school years (1972 – 1976), American public television was overrun with British productions, Masterpiece Theater, Upstairs, Downstairs, International Animation Festival, and, of course, Monty Python’s Flying Circus.
Once I had a taste of it, I was hooked. The accents, the settings, the simultaneously high and lowbrow humor. I was in heaven!
From the unforgettable show opening to the classic sketches included here, I was very much entertained, but it never felt “foreign” to me. For me, I was home! Enjoy!
