For those unfamiliar with the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band, imagine a musical group that blends the absurdity of Monty Python with the infectious energy of the Beatles, all wrapped up in a psychedelic jazz sound.

Their unique style and humor set them apart from their contemporaries.
The upcoming collection is a must-have for any serious Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band fan. It features remastered versions of all their original albums, including the iconic “Gorilla and the Donut in Granny’s Greenhouse” in its original mono mixes. Additionally, the set includes a newly compiled remastered CD of all their singles, two discs of demos, rehearsals, and outtakes, a disc of backing tracks, three discs of BBC sessions, and two live discs.
But that’s not all. Still Barking also includes three DVDs featuring TV performances, rare appearances, short films, and vintage footage. To top it off, a 148-page hardcover coffee table book accompanies the set, featuring tributes from renowned figures like Pete Townshend, Stephen Fry, and Yvonne Innes.
The collection is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band. It’s a treasure trove for fans who want to immerse themselves in the band’s music and history.
