Life in my wardrobe - By: mountain jack, 16 Aug 2008 
At the young of age of teen something I experienced a "Bonzo" moment,this made me jump up, run outside & sell my ruptered spleen to a passing gypsy.Ever since, I have livedin my wardrobe hoping one day to become a pygmy, & I do believe it's happening, yours dimimishingly, MJM
Utterly fantastic! - By: Charlotte Bryant, 13 Jul 2008 Can't really say anything more, but I will. I was introduced to them through 'Ali Baba's Camel', but everything else is brilliant as well. I'm a bit worried about listening to itin public because it makes me laugh so much. In particular: 'Look out, there's a Monster coming', 'Trouser Press' & the wonderful 'My brother makes the noises for the Talkies'. Very talented indeed. & 'Hello Mabel'. In fact, every track is superb.
Buy it now, please!
You Done My Brain In- And Thank God You Did! - By: A. Hollingdrake, 27 Apr 2008 Having read the existing reviews there's little I can do but echo the sentiments expressed.
I bought my first copy of 'Gorilla'in 1968 & played it to death along with'Doughnut'. This compilation drags me unresisting back to the sixties & seventies - maybe it should be marketed as an elixir of youth.
I can't think of a single track I don't like,but several I think outstanding:'Death Cab for Cutie', 'We Were Wrong', 'Sport','Quiet Talks & Summer Walks'and 'the wonderful 'Bad Blood', which should give a valuable insight into the state of my mind.
Have a bad day? Then just Bonzo it, although whether you should play it when driving or operating machinery is open to debate. Worth any amount of money, but don't come round for it yet boys.
Aaaaaarghh!! I forgot 'Look out There's a Monster Coming' - Lonely unmarried looking for love? What's wrong with my tie, am I getting too high? Absolutely, & I've no intention of coming down. Thanks guys, you've given me forty years of mind blowing happiness-and here's to Viv, he should be canonised.
THE BONZOS: THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION - By: David Josephs, 06 Feb 2007 I was a huge fan of Niel Innes from the Innes Book of Records & never really delved back any further than Urban Spaceman until quite recently. In searching Amazon for any Neil innes material I came upon a number of Items including this amazing collection. All the albums plus a number of additions.This collection has been played constantlyin my car & is also a keen favourite of my 10 yr old daughter who accompanied me to see the bonzo`s live at wolverhampton. If you have the slightest interestin the bonzos & want to hear more then just get cornology; youll not need any other.
Creative Brilliance - By: M. Watts, 07 Sep 2006 I got into the Bonzos following a recommendation by my Dada to watch a documentary by John Peel about the band's lives & works. That's how it started. Then I bought the "Bestiality" Best Of Album & have been hooked since. You don't know what's coming next with this compilation - some tracks are comical & amusing, others satirical rippings of various musical genres.... I think. It is quite late after all! There are some whistlable tunes here & you'll be singing some strange lyrics to yourselfin the coffee room at work while others look at you as if you're mad. I'm seriously into this at the moment & can't help thinking I will take up the tuba..... buy it now, if you have a penchant for something different & off-the-wall. Which they undoubtedly were.
