Editorial Reviews
Amazon.co.uk Review
One of the greatest ironies surrounding This Is Spinal Tap is that it's actually better than many of the recordings it parodies. Songs like "Tonight I'm Gonna Rock You Tonight", "Hell Hole", "Heavy Duty" and even "Stonehenge" are fun, 1980s-style rockers that any closet hair-band fan will enjoy, and "Sex Farm" and "Big Bottom" are hilarious, especially to those same closet fans. There's also the hippie-drippy "Listen to the Flower People" (even funnier if you've seen Rob Reiner's film of the same title), although Michael McKean and Christopher Guest singing "Cry, Cry, Cry All the Way Home" is sadly absent. The CD does lose some of its entertainment value if you haven't seen the film, but its mix of comedy and unabashed pop metal makes it the perfect party album. --Genevieve Williams
Customer Reviews
Pray for one more tour.
The thing about this 'spoof' band is they are by far the greatest rock band seen in the modern world. I doubt if even the masters of rock, the ancient Greeks, had ever performed to such a high standard.
Any album that has the lyrics: "My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo, I want to sink her with my pink torpedo" can only rise to the greatest heights that the musical world can soar.
If you like rock, don't buy this album. On the otherhand, if you love rrrrrrrrrrrrock buy about 4 copies, just in case you lose three of them.
Parody? - Never! - this is the real deal baby!!
After reading some reviews I noticed that some look at the mighty Spinal Tap as being a spoof or parody! - Shame on you! - I didn't think the visit to A&E was a parody after my ears bled after listening to Venus de Milo or the time when I slipped into a temporary coma after listening too much of Shark Sandwich in the same sitting!! - These guys live the dream and all naysayers are over-looking the genius that is Spinal Tap.
Search out your lycra and spandex and rock til' it hurts.
"Hello Cleveland!!!!"
Very , Very Funny!
What a great soundtrack! The songs are what make the movie for me. With songs like Big Bottom, Tonight We going to Rock You and Give me some Money, you know you are going to laugh.
The guys in Spinal Tap do play all the instruments on the soundtrack and are all very talented. The songs are very well written, the lyrics making you laugh every time, there are riffs and solos aplenty.
It's not musical genius but still very good!
