Monty Python Live at Drury Lane is an album released by Monty Python in 1974. It was recorded at the Drury Lane Theater in London . The skits are from the Flying Circus and are slightly different from their TV counterparts. A new edition on CD was released in 1997.

The album was not released in the United States until 1994, when it was released in the box set The Instant Monty Python CD Collection .

To promote the release of the album, a double-sided flexi record called Monty Python's Tiny Black Round Thing with 6-7 minutes of partially exclusive material on each side was sold.

With The Idiot Song , the album contains a song by Neil Innes , a member of the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band , who regularly participated in the productions of Monty Python and was therefore often referred to as the Seventh Python.

All Python albums are special editions on CD, but this is the only one with new material, namely an interview at the end of the CD.
