Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Cook secretly despised Moore's Hollywood success; this 'comedy' album was psychological warfare disguised as collaboration.
The album bombed commercially—Virgin Records' first real failure—but became sacred text for British alternative comedy, influencing everyone from Fry & Laurie to The Mighty Boosh.
