Very amusing clip. There is actually a group called The Mop Tops. I wonder if that's them. They have some really good songs too. And no bbj, you'll never escape The Fab Four, why would you want to.
I think that is the very same Moptops people know in the Beatle tribute world. Like, they play (or did play...this video's a few years old) straight-up Beatle tribute gigs. But they also make/made these funny videos that satirize themselves and the whole notion of being IN a tribute bad. "A Hard Day's Day" is the one that ends with "Hava Nagila." And there's another, longer one called "Nowhere Man" (right here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_NPvsHc98Q) about what happens when the leader forgets he's not really John. That one has a killer Beatle-ized "Locomotion."

There is no escaping The Beatles is there?

This was from their unreleased "Rabbi Saul" album, no doubt.
Other standouts include "Your Mother Should Only Kow," "P.S. I Owe You" "Sexy Seder" and "The Shul on the Hill."
"Oy-Bla-Di,Oy-Bla-Da," "I Will?," and "Thank You Mohel."
