The Rutles – “I Must Be in Love” (Video – 1978)

This “video” is taken from the 1978 TV-movie The Rutles: All You Need is Cash – the documentary of the pre-Fab Four.
Of course, The Rutles only existed in our minds. Eric Idle from Monty Python fame (who plays the Paul McCartney “character” in the movie) invented this brilliant send-up of The Beatles and got Neil Innes from The Bonzo Dog Band (who plays the John Lennon “character”) to write & record all the music – which of course, were all parodies of actual Beatle songs. They were so well-done, you would swear these were real songs from the 60s.
This movie is hysterical and highly recommended to any Beatles or Monty Python fan.
