What to do with a celebrity everyone already knows, someone who brought you the earworm of a song from whence comes our title, and was instrumental in bringing you things like Monty Python and the Holy Grail, and of course, Spamalot? What must their journey through something like 60 years of showbiz be like? And further, how does one prepare for such a thing when the author is self-deprecating, and admittedly name-droppingly pretentious? When it is Eric Idle, it's quite simple - you just power through. Though the book gets name-salad sections pretty frequently, many of these will be stories you'll want to read, and the stuff you don't know is fascinating, hilarious, and often heartwarming. This is Idle's chance to brag on himself, and fortunately, he's got it coming.
