4 out of 5 stars I'm dancing in my underwear and I don't care........2006-01-06

This is a tribute album to the Rutles, the Beatles parody group. All 20 songs from the Rutles first album are covered here. Most of the cover versions here are pretty good. Long live Rock and Roll!

2 out of 5 stars Uneven but well-intentioned.......1999-02-07

This disc contains cover tracks by Shonen Knife and Bongos, Bass and Bob--the bassist of which is Penn Jilette, half of Penn & Teller. Other than that, it's largely forgettable and so wildly varied that it's not an easy or enjoyable listen.

1 out of 5 stars I had hopes for it...........1998-05-12

Rutles Highway Revisited is a tribute album to the pre-fab four by a bunch of unknown, New York area bands who, for the most part, are either really horrible musicians or just joking. Leppo could've done a better job.

5 out of 5 stars buy it at the right price!.......2004-07-11

This album is top, not just for shimmy disc fans, sixties completists, bozo dog do dah fans, python fans, but just solid music fans. DON'T BE RIPPED OFF though. It is available NEW from Hemisphere.nl at a fraction of the price listed here. It's even cheeper on postage if you go through musicstack.com.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent comp for Rutles, Beatles or Shimmy Disc fans alike.......2001-06-02

This comp of Shimmy Disc artists (and others) doing Rutles covers is just amazing! If you're a fan of Bongwater, Galaxie 500, Kramer or other Shimmy Disc artists, for that matter if you love the Rutles ("Sorry girls, he's engaged ...") you have to get this comp!
