Eric Idle Sings Monty Python is a live recording by original Monty Python member Eric Idle performed at the J. Paul Getty Center in Los Angeles in 1999. The concert runs for under an hour and is packed with songs, poems, and arcana from the then-thirty years of Monty Python, with amusing Idle banter between songs. Idle is accompanied by some background singers, and the audience.

AllMusic reviewer Mark Morgenstein stated "If you like Monty Python, you'll love it; if you don't, you'll hate it. ... Idle's droll voice isn't bad for a comedian, and with his chorus of background singers, it fits the silly tone of the songs well."[1]
