obviosly you have no musical knowledge or talent. If you think lenny from laverne and shirley and christopher guest can play better guitar than these guys you are sadly mistaken,and a chic with leather pants is better than a dude with a cucumber in his pants anyday.
Never said it was better in guitars. I'm sure these guys outclass David and Nigel completely (maybe not Nigel, since he is awesome...) But Spinal Tap perform this better. More heart into it. This is good, but the crappy lead vocals suck.
Besides, its like saying who is better at drawing a scribble. The song is not very complicated. No solo, just riffs based on power chords and chomatic notes up and down a scale.
thats true,but if you looked at any one else covering this song,these guys did a great job.I would like to see tapo do another cd and movie.Maybe lenny got better at guitar over they years???
I would love a 40th Anniversary tour for Spinal Tap (First song, Listen to the Flower People came out in '67)
Apparently, David St. Hubbins and Nigel Tufnel are both accomplished musicians, but they would probably make some Nu-Metal songs, since they always enter in on a musical fad right on its decline.
They were suppose to make the Stonehenge monument start "dancing" with the dwarfs! Check the original film footage.
