Michael Palin Diaries 1969-1979: The Python Years - Michael Palin - Audio Book

Michael Palin Diaries 1969-1979: The Python Years - Michael Palin : MICHAEL PALIN's diaries begin in the late 1960s and tell how Python emerged and triumphed. Enjoying an unlikely cult status early on, the group then proceeded to tour in the United States and Canada, appearing, like pop stars, at sold-out stadiums coast to coast and on national chat shows. They even stayed in hotels newly trashed by Led Zeppelin, later investors in Monty Python and the Holy Grail,
With this growing fame in the United States came the move from local public broadcasting to national television there and battles over censorship followed as up to one line in four was cut from the Python sketches, rendering them incomprehensible.

A perceptive and funny chronicle, the diaries are a rich portrait of a fascinating period.
