WAKE UP AND SMELL THE LEATHER
By now, of course, you have all seen This Is Spinal Tap, Marty DiBergi's masterful cinema verite evocation of the ups and downs of the eventful recent American tour by that 'li'l ol' band from London.' Following a typically aggressive marketing strategy, Polymer Records, having picked up the entire Tap catalog when they signed the veteran band last year, has released a soundtrack LP that is truly an extraordinary greatest hits/historical survey of all the stages of their fine, superfine career.
WAKE UP AND SMELL THE LEATHER
SPINAL TAP From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack "This Is Spinal Tap" (Polymer/Polygram)
Jeff Nesin
By now, of course, you have all seen This Is Spinal Tap, Marty DiBergi's masterful cinema verite evocation of the ups and downs of the eventful recent American tour by that 'li'l ol' band from London.' Following a typically aggressive marketing strategy, Polymer Records, having picked up the entire Tap catalog when they signed the veteran band last year, has released a soundtrack LP that is truly an extraordinary greatest hits/historical survey of all the stages of their fine, superfine career. As as a whole new generation of American rock fans feel the noise and smell the glove via the film and the hits, I'm certain an ineluctable demand for the Tap's 15 earlier LP's—now tragically unavailable—is sure to grow.
