NEIL INNES

R.I.P 1944-2019


No words will suffice but another brother from another mother is lost to us and the wonderful Neil Innes is mourned across all levels of music and comedy. From 'I'm The Urban Spaceman' to Grimms' 'Rockin' Duck', I adored Neil and his 'How Sweet To Be an Idiot' always struck a poignant chord for me and the missing fifth (seventh ?) Python, friend to the stars (George Harrison) lune and funster without equal we are all a bit more sad today as we hear of Neil's death. The giggling will stop
