*PLEASE READ FIRST*

WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT:
Timed for its 40th anniversary, here is a brand new CD edition of Monty Python's sixth album The Album Of The Soundtrack Of The Trailer Of The Film Of Monty Python And The Holy Grail. Newly professionally remastered and sounding significantly better than any previously or currently available CD edition, this also includes over a dozen bonus tracks including every previously released bonus from prior retail editions and some brand new material never officially released, as well as a couple of surprises. The download also contains full, hi-res printable artwork including an 8-page booklet (featuring sleevenotes, detailed tracklist, original artwork, a packaging montage and rare promotional material), tray inserts, and disc label. This is the only version of this album you will ever need to play from now on.

WHAT IS REQUIRED OF YOU:
- Please do not upload any of the material to YouTube, Soundcloud etc. Let's keep this classy, there might be more where this came from if so.
- Don't charge money for this or put it on eBay.
- I have no problem with mirrors, or if someone wishes to put this on other sites, Rutracker, Pirate Bay et al, as long as it is in its original file format with the artwork PDF included.
- If you wish to enjoy the results of this project, please buy via whatever format you prefer a legitimate version of both the original album from Virgin/Arista and the official score album from DeWolfe. A retail equivalent will only ever happen if there's solid proof that there's still a market for this material. This is intended as a supplement for owners of the real CDs only.

Awesome!! Thank you pernclub for this fine fine offering. :)

Thanks for sharing this classic!!!!!!

Thank you!

Please do not split, re-encode, convert to MP3 or otherwise compromise the delivery method. If you *must* for whatever reason, please do not share the results.

Ah, so this is seamless branching of tracks into each other? (like Pink Floyd's The Wall album).

Thank you for this wonderful share!
I lvoe this movie so much. So nice to have a real remastered update. :)

What an album. Thank you for all of your efforts!

thanks!

Muchas gracias.

Thanks :)

Fantastic share...thanks very much. :)

This... will be listened to :)

That's a verra nice!

(I told him we already got one!)

Thanks!!

Thank You.
Umm, has a soundtrack been released of the films orchestral pieces yet?

Thanks to this album I now eat ham and jam and Spam a lot...... great share thanks!!

thanks for the share.

Thank you for this, top quality too. Spam anyone!!!

Pernclub,

Thanks pernclub.

TRXSCOR

Nice upload you snotty nosed heap of parrot droppings!

Excellent post!!

"Hello! Good evening and welcome to the middle of the thread!"

Serious, does anyone have any info if the orchestral pieces from Grail has ever been released?
I just got to have them, it's something i've always wanted for so long.

Just a note about the .cue file:

Original:

REM DISCID ED12B511
REM COMMENT "ExactAudioCopy v1.0b3"
PERFORMER "Unknown Artist"
TITLE "Unknown Title"
FILE "Holy Grail 40th Anniversary.wav" WAVE

Fixed:

REM DISCID ED12B511
REM COMMENT "ExactAudioCopy v1.0b3"
PERFORMER "Various Artists"
TITLE "Holy Grail 40th Anniversary"
FILE "Holy Grail 40th Anniversary.flac" WAVE

Change the FILE name to read ".flac" and not ".wav" as any reader (program) will expect to load a WAV file.
Keep WAVE (at the end) as WAVE.
You can change PERFORMER and TITLE if you like. Won't affect playback.

Thank you very much! AMAZING!

Thanks for this.


Ah, so this is seamless branching of tracks into each other? (like Pink Floyd's The Wall album).

Like Pink Floyd's every album. Almost.

I noticed right away how seamless it flows between the first three tracks.

This is definitely going on my Android.

Wow, thanks for this great release.

Thanks for all that have been enjoying this, I've been away and have returned to lots of love, so thank you! I would also like to thank all the anonymous collaborators who worked on this. There is definitely more where this came from...!

Few replies...

It's more that I just want to keep the remaster and the bonuses in one place. When, hopefully, I can share more albums in this manner, it'll help create a true set of Purple Chick/Dr Ebbetts-style upgrades of the Python catalogue. A decision was made to keep the sides as single tracks in keeping with the original artistic intent (the Python records were never 'banded' or tracked, just as the TV episodes were always meant to be self-contained 30-minute pieces, not chopped up into clips etc).


Umm, has a soundtrack been released of the films orchestral pieces yet?

Depressingly, that CD seems to be in development hell. Someone on here has created a very good fan version but I and many others have been completely unable to get the link!

Ah, yes. I generally use CUETools for that stuff, which is fairly bulletproof at automatically fixing stuff like that. So yeah, if you want to use a burner, decode to WAV. Cheers for pointing it out, that info fell off my original blether! :)

thank you

Thank you very much! This is wonderful. Though I'm still going to wave my private parts at your aunties.

Many thanks for this awesome release. I have fond memories of listening to the original vinyl, not having seen the film and in the days before home video. And it was still hilarious! Can't wait for further python releases.

Can't wait for further python releases.

What special edition would folks like next? There are other similar deluxe versions in various stages of assembly. One of them in particular is truly insane (a 45 minute record set to stand at three discs and four hours, no exaggeration). Hopefully the next couple of years will see the lot of them done!

I fart in your general direction!!!

Wow. thank you very much this is great.

Spam, Spam, Holy Grail orchestral music and Spam, without the Spam.

Bravo sir, and thanks!

Bad news and good news:

1. I've removed the original link for now, for good reasons I can't discuss but which are the same reasons the album-by-album restoration project never happened

2. DeWolfe have issued an official remastered Holy Grail score album which can be bought from Amazon or Qobuz

Please can I have a link to this?

The ONLY Monty Python de Wolfe album is this one for the TV series.
