The Rutles were truly ground breakers. Their (made for TV) movie All You Need Is Cash which at the time had the lowest rating for any show during that week it first aired somehow the paved the way for such illuminating documentaries ("errr... should I say "Rockumentary") films such as Spinal Tap and Walk Hard and is probably the only Mockumentary that predates the documentary film it's spoofing, it came out about 4 years before The Complete Beatles and decades before Anthology did, how was that possible? The Rutles - talk about a band ahead of its time.
