"Teach Yourself Heath" is the name of a one-sided 33rpm flexi-disc by Monty Python[1] which was given away free with issue 27 of ZigZag magazine in December 1972 and also included inside initial copies of their third album Monty Python's Previous Record.
The track is billed as "Home Tutor Language Course, Number 14 - An invaluable introduction for Beginners to the Theory and Practice of Heath". This title is read aloud by Michael Palin, after which Eric Idle is heard teaching the listener how to mimic the speech patterns of the then British prime minister Edward Heath (which are presented as though "Heath" is a separate language or dialect). Real extracts of Heath's voice are used to demonstrate. In addition to reading the title, Palin has a few brief lines during the opening portion of the sketch, but otherwise Idle (with some background music and the clips of Heath) carries the piece.
As Palin explained to Time Out: "Eric and I spent a day listening to Heath's speeches; at a certain point I went to sleep...I feel the record hasn't done justice to the boredom and inanity of those party political speeches. If it is funny, thank Mr Heath for that. It's all him..."[2]
The track was released on CD in 2006, as part of the bonus tracks on the special edition release of Monty Python's Previous Record.
