3 out of 5 stars Better alternatives out there.......2003-05-15

In 1994 Monty Python had a 25th anniversary release of a boxed set (6 CD) of everything they'd done (except Live from the Hollywood Bowl, which is essentially no different from Live at Drury Lane, which *is* included). This CD is a one-CD boiled down version of this.

There is no substitute for the boxed set, not even "The Final Rip-Off." Go find it in the secondary market.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent Live Versions.......2003-01-09

The live recordings of The Pet Shop, The Argument Clinic, and Nudge Nudge are the best I have heard. John Cleese's lively renditions in the first two sketches are head & shoulders above other releases. The Argument Clinic, sadly, is truncated and does not include "getting hit on the head" and "the complaint department."

The inclusion of snippets from The Holy Grail seem out of place with everything else.

In effect, the title represents what is here. It seems as if a bunch of recordings were thrown together out of what was on hand at the time to "instantly" make a collection. Although ineven in material, it is still a great representation of Monty Python material.

4 out of 5 stars Great, but THE FINAL RIP has most everything here and more.......2000-08-12

The INSTANT COLLECTION, in its day, was probably the best Monty Python album available. Unlike much previous Python fare, this one rips most of its cuts from movies and other previous recordings. Sound quality is unusually high, and sketches are often at their most polished. Unlike so many Python albums of the seventies, INSTANT COLLECTION largely ignores often inferior "live" recordings of the sketches they took on the road. (An unfortunate exception is "Nudge, Nudge", which, though probably the best live recording available, is still not as crisply-timed as the studio version.)

Still, despite its high quality, INSTANT COLLECTION has been eclipsed by THE FINAL RIP OFF, which has much of what's here plus a good deal more. Most people would be better served by getting that two-CD collection than this one.

(It might be important to note for some that this album is similar in name only to the import INSTANT COLLECTION.)

5 out of 5 stars What can I say? It's hilarious!.......2000-02-17

Every caught yourself having to stop your car because you were laughing so much that you couldn't drive? Want to feel it? Buy this!
