Hurrah - The Harold Lloyd 9 DVD Box Set (I'm never sure if it's 'box' or 'boxed') has arrived. Disc 1 is out of the way, and after only watching the iconic clock hanging epsidode in scraps, bits and bobs - to see the full stretch of 'Safety Last' is nail bitingly, neck tighteningly tense.
Here's a Clip from 'An Eastern Westerner' set to the John Spencer Blues Explosion ( a band I've always swerved, but actually like the sound of after hearing this)
I'm also on a bit of a Monty Python buzz at the mo', I picked the 'Python Personal Best' Box Set (I'm never sure if....) for eight earth pounds, via 'new or used' on Amazon. Which is good, but missing a few classics 'Spanish Inquisition', not much 'Gumby' and an edited version of 'Argument room' - edited to the point of 'Argument Room' not being in it..but the Terry Gilliam disc - one solid hour of surrealist animation - makes it worth grabbing at any price. Here's another DIY soundtrack where....

OH NO!!!...what have Python done to the classic Star Trek???
Glad they weren't active around the time to adulterate "The Next Generation", "Voyager" and "Deep Space Nine". I don't think I could bear it!
Fab bit of Harold Lloyd footage by the way...
Have you seen what happens when
Monty Pythons' Holy Grail met Darth Vader
Glad you like the Harold Lloyd clip, it works a treat with the soundtrack
Have now...what a hoot; Fantastic!
I agree; the soundtrack was an excellent choice PM. At times it was almost as though they were lip synching!
DUDE!! you swerved J.S.B.E??? .. come the big day my son ... (in best wolfy smith type voice) they are properly brilliant, its that bloody skip button again!! give them a concerted effort and suddenly it will all click into place.

That soundtrack to the Harold Lloyd clip is inspired. What a beautiful fit. The dvd box set has also sorted my Dad's next birthday present - cheers!
