Harry Nilsson and Eric Idle Audiocassettes

Harry Nilsson and Eric Idle Audiocassettes

Four demo audiocassettes containing music by Eric, largely for the song "Harry" about Harry Nilsson. Also shown is a commercial copy of Flash Harry, featuring Eric's song as the title track and Nilsson's cover, "Bright Side of Life," as the album's last track. 

"Interesting that the production of "Harry" is credited to Trevor Jones, which was John Du Prez's real name before he changed it shortly after this...The Rutland Isles tracks - we recorded some in LA with Ricky Fataar and Van Dyke Parks and Charlie Dore. The Noel Coward song was the original title of "The Penis Song" from The Meaning of Life. "One Foot" is the title track I was commissioned to write for a BBCTV series called One Foot in the Grave... The 'Eric Idle and Charlie Dore' tape was recorded in Neil's Yard, Soho, at Redwood, the Python 8 track recording studio." - Eric Idle
