    Neil is an English Writer and performer of comic songs best known for his collaborative work with Monty Python, and for playing in the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band and later The Rutles.

    In the period 1962 to 1965, Innes and several other art school students started a band which was originally names the Bonzo Dog Dada Band after their interest in the art movement Dada, but which was soon renamed Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band (often shortened to The Bonzo Dog Band). Innes, with Vivian Stanshall, wrote most of the band's songs including "I'm the Urban Spaceman", the sole hit, (produced by Paul McCartney and Gus Dudgeon under the collective pseudonym Apollo C. Vermouth) and "Death Cab for Cutie" (which inspired an American musical group of the same name), which was featured in the Beatles' film Magical Mystery Tour. Innes own an Ivor Novello Award for Best Novelty Song in 1968 for "I'm the Urban Spaceman".
