Monty Python Live at City Center
Monty Python Live at City Center is a US-only live album by Monty Python, recorded at the New York City Center in April 1976 and rush released by Arista Records the following month. In order to get the album out in the shops quickly, the recordings were made early on in the run, where some of the performances were affected by faulty microphones. The team were joined onstage by regular actress Carol Cleveland and musician Neil Innes, who also performed in some sketches. The album was not released in the UK, due to its similarity to Live at Drury Lane. As with that album, Michael Palin provided new linking material. A CD version was released in 1997.
