The Rutles, a hilarious spoof of The Beatles and the brainchild of Monty Python's Eric Idle, made their first appearance in a short film on Saturday Night Live. Audience response was so overwhelming that SNL producer Lorne Michaels decided to go ahead with a full production, All You Need Is Cash, which originally aired on NBC-TV in the spring of 1978 - six years before the more famous "mockumentary" Spinal Tap. The extravaganza starred Idle and Neil Innes (the latter of whom wrote all of the music) and featured special guests Mick Jagger, Ron Wood, Paul Simon, John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd, Gilda Radner, Bill Murray, and even ex-Beatle George Harrison. Follow four mop-topped young Brits whose right choice of trousers (tight) gets them a lifetime recording contract despite their lack of musical ability. Overcoming that, they go on to produce monumental albums like Sgt. Rutter's Only Darts Club Band, along with appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show and a concert at Che Stadium, cementing their world domination of pop music. But, as with their Fab Four namesake, artistic differences and various other problems threaten to derail Rutlemania. Don't miss The Rutles' wonderfully warped songs "Hold My Hand," "Love Life," "Ouch!," "Piggy In The Middle," "Cheese And Onions," "Get Up And Go," and many other familiar-sounding tunes.

"In those early days, there was a fifth Rutle - Leppo, a friend of Nasty's from Art College who mainly used to stand at the back. He couldn't play the guitar, but he knew how to have a good time and in Hamburg, that was more important."

Years before spinal tap and predating the mockumentary style of filmmaking, this is a masterpiece that really needs to be re-released in the cinemas and on DVD...

[@tlatosmd]

This is not even a trailer for this immortal gem in cinematography and hilarious Big Bang and grandmother of all mockumentaries. It's only the film's first 4 minutes! Patsy would probably say: "It's only a model..."

"Sh!"

[@d.a.elliottjr.367]

I saw this on TV in March 1978. I bought the soundtrack album 2 months later, still have it. I didn't see the movie again till I bought the DVD in 2005.

[@glenbard657]

I still have my album too.

[@TheRealSinjinsmyth]

Haha when he keeps getting faster lmfao Eric Idle is the greatest.

[@anon9110]

Their first album was made in 20 minutes lol

[@tlatosmd]

Their second took *EVEN LONGER*!

[@SirBorisHayter]

Elton John once made 4 albums in a day.

[@TheEchovoices]

so funny omg this was the best

[@TurtleFrack]

20 minutes? How'd they do that when the album is 38 minutes long? Did they record it at 78 rpm with their little Chipmunk voices, and then slowed it down when they pressed it? I am confused by your comment.

[@shizyninjarocks]

The true sound of rock and roll.

Face the music! The Rutles ARE a national treasure!

Get up and go is a great tune 😂

Rut in Peace Neil Innes 😞

[@kjamison5951]

I have never seen this behemoth in full... I need to correct that. Neil Innes was a genius matching the sounds and style of the prefab four to the, er, well that other mop-haired quartet, The Beadles. John, Jarge, Powell and Rhino.

[@johnbateman6883]

This was beyond clever it was genius 👏 🙌 😅

[@taissafarmiga6682]

Greatest parody ever!

[@BelaCurcio]

I work at a used record store and I always see that Rutles record around, I always mistake it for a Beatles record at first because they copied them so well haha. I never knew that was Eric Idle lol. I guess I never looked close enough.

[@bganey]

This was a ROAST. Savage!

[@celosemnexo]

I want this in dvd!

[@henryd98]

Best movie ever

[@heimonen5174]

I was 17yr old and Beatles fan for many years when I came home from basketball practice. Then I opened television and slowly started to understand what I was watching. The Time I heard Harrisons voice in front of banana record Office I was rolling on the floor and laughing like crazy. That night I understood what is the meaning of all... You cannot die because you laugh too hard. You must die for another reason🔫

[@johnyohann6946]

C'mon everyone- how about getting the Rutles into the RRHOF? RIP Neil.

When it was still funny to use the name Mountbatten in a comedy sketch... British comedy is legendary. The Rutles should write "Back in the EU".

[@tlatosmd]

"Back in the EU, and we still can't fight this flu..."
