I watched The Ruttles: All You Need is Cash again the other night. I love the movie. Any film that has a black guy from Mississippi claiming that Lawrence Welk stole all his ideas is sure to live forever. My problem is that I can't get the songs out of my head. I know that Dave Barry says that our brain's highest priority task is repeating bad songs endlessly, but it should be easy to get rid of these. I worked on playing Help for about an hour (the opening riff is a great cross-string alternate picking exercise). But the parody Ouch! is still in my head. What do I do?

that it was originally on NBC...seems so out of character for a network these days...and who can forget Leggy Mountbatten's mother..."Yes...their trousers were very...tight...left nothing to the imagination..."

One of the "old black guys" in the Rutles was Jerome Green, Bo Diddley's maraca man/comic foil. I forget which one though.

was running through my head yesterday, and I haven't seen the movie in years.

The George H character is a riot.

My brain has also been playing 'that's amore' after going to a great Italian wedding last week and screaming it at the top of my lungs.

The brain is a scary thing indedd.

Love the bit where Mick Jagger (I think) is asked whether the Rutles will ever return and he repies , "Oh, I 'ope not."
