The Monty Python Matching Tie and Handkerchief is the fourth album by the comedy group Monty Python, released in 1973. The full title of the album is Free Record Given Away With The Monty Python Matching Tie and Handkerchief, and the initial pressings were allegedly packaged with a real tie and handkerchief and distributed to menswear stores, the concept being that the record was merely a 'free gift' in the manner of plastic dinosaurs with breakfast cereals. It is also notable for its inner sleeve art, which is visible through a cutaway hole in the album's outer sleeve. It appears to be a simple Terry Gilliam artwork of a tie and handkerchief, but when the inner sleeve is pulled out, it reveals that the tie and handkerchief are actually on a dead man hanging rather graphically from a gallows. Later releases of the album would just have the picture of the clothing on the front cover, and removed the inner sleeve and the unusual hidden artwork.

The album's original LP edition (on Charisma Records in the U.K., catalog no. CAS 1080, released 1973, and on Arista Records in the U.S., catalog no. AL 4039, released 1975) is particularly notable in that it was mastered with two parallel grooves on side two, so that different material would be played depending on where the stylus was put down on the record's surface. For this reason it is sometimes referred to as a "three-sided" record. The cutting was carried out by George "Porky" Peckham. To further confuse the listener, both sides of the LP are labelled "FREE RECORD Given away with the Monty Python Matching Tie and Handkerchief" - only the matrix numbers identify which are the first and second sides.

The album did not have a track listing, so that this feature would come as a complete surprise to the listener, who might on a second listening hear material he had never heard before, creating genuine confusion.

The following sketches are from the TV series: "Church Police", "Bruces/Philosopher's Song (minus The Philosophers Song)", "Cheese Shop", "Mrs. Niggerbaiter Explodes", "Oscar Wilde", and "Buying a Cat". The remainder are exclusive to this album.
