Derek Smalls Interview

SWR's own Tony Franklin caught up with Derek Smalls of Spinal Tap during rehearsals for the Live Earth concert at Wembley stadium in 2007. The conversation ranges from Derek's favorite SWR gear to the status of his long-dormant solo projects. Rated PG-13!

derek was the little known bass player for motown for three weeks , whilst it was under construction ....didnt use him though ..he always used jazz oddysy scales . Jazz oddity really , oddity jazz ...he was deemed too odd. He says it was because of all the hammers and saws and construction going on ...but it was the scales really , sad.

@TangledWebFilms No, but oddly enough, David St Hubbins DID play Lenny (of Lenny and Squiggy), on Lavern and Shirley.
