Actually, Tony began satirizing the rock world much earlier. After
working with John Cleese and Graham Chapman in the "Cambridge University
Footlights Revue," the pudgy blond teamed with dark-haired straight man
Nick Ullett. They recorded "To Be Or Not To Be, Babe" a spitting
satire on the pretentiousness of the folk-rock movement. Hamlet's
soliloquy got jangled by music that tweaked The Byrds, Dylan and Sonny
& Cher.
