The approach you are considering may be easier than you think:


filter(str.isalpha, 'The Beatles - help - 03 - Ticket to ride')

'TheBeatleshelpTickettoride'

Hmm, I think this is a case where filter is significantly clearer than the equivalent list comprehension:


Py> "".join([c for c in 'The Beatles - help - 03 - Ticket to ride' if c.isalpha(
)])
'TheBeatleshelpTickettoride'
Py>

Cheers,
Nick.
