Spinal Tap - Rock n' Roll Creation (live Royal Albert Hall 1992) HD

[@tmx63]

This is great...I don't mean it in a "hah spinal tap so funny" kind of way; these guys had clearly spent time learning their instruments and honing their craft. I am 100% blown away.

[@Unsung_Earth]

I remember seeing Tap play at the Isle of Lucy

[@andrewcross8244]

😅😅😅wasn’t there a spontaneous combustion of some sort? Maybe a globule

[@tommyt1971]

I heard the puppet show that headlined after Tap really ROCKED.

[@jazzx251]

This is the song that made me a Christian. "Twas the rolling of the ocean, and the rocking of the Earth. And I saw that it was goooooood."

[@rockeraaj]

These guys are so good that when I see them out of character I don't believe they can play guitar, bass, drums or sing. Doesn't seem possible.

[@antrygis1]

Their musicianship has improved dramatically. And there is no problems with the pods this time. And Yin is still searching for his yang. reminds me of early sabbath at the beginning and flashbacks of Captain Beyond as well.

[@mickybarr9032]

This time it was Nigel's, he had to push it open

[@josephclark4999]

I used to have a Captain Beyond album. It had this hologram 3-D image on the cover I cut it out and framed it.

[@antrygis1]

@@josephclark4999 It was a very cool album cover. People called me that and Mr. Trips////such a long, long time ago.

[@FranktheDachshund]

Less than 2000 views, don't you people realize how important Tap was.

[@mikekean8344]

Yeah, dude! They were the best metal band that never was! 😄😄😄😄😄

[@russellj.s.257]

Even if the band consisted of three real life comedians wearing wigs and costumes with a session keyboardist and session drummer,they are better than most artists who by today's standard are considered great musicians,oh I forgot write their own songs and play their own instruments,can Beyonce,Katy Perry,Britney Spears and Lady Gaga(just to name a few) say that? Of course they can't,because survey says they are told what to say,how to act,how to dress and what there gonna sing and how there gonna sing it. Because,they are manufactured entertainers,also selling an image. That's what's wrong with the music industry today.

Is... how important tap is...

@@kiezersosay49 Yep. They're all still kicking. However, the ironic part of this is...Ric Parnell is not.

[@ugadawgs1990]

The album Smell the Glove has been deposited in the US Library of Congress’ time capsule for future generations to uncover and re-live.

[@jazzx251]

Have they archived the original cover, or the black one? [you should have seen the cover they wanted to print! .. it wasn't a glove she was supposed to sniff, I can tell you that!]

[@ugadawgs1990]

@@jazzx251 , what’s wrong with being sexy?

[@johnberger4267]

Hey! I was the drummer in the hottest rock band in Denver in the 80's. We loved dropping acid and watching this movie. Amazing! Tap 4evr!

[@gogoyubari366]

One of the greatest bands ever!

[@captpicard100]

And I looked and I saw that it was goooooooooood Any songwriter would be proud of that line😁😁

[@wendygould7836]

Changed my life when I first watched the movie!! Whack it up to 11.

[@Lee.Higginbotham]

Smell the glove!!! 🎸🎸🎸🎸

[@slawomay5784]

Hell good!

[@michaelbyrne5507]

I love Tap!

[@georgecoventry8441]

What an ending!!! What can one really do except freak out totally and all join together in a thunderous chant of: TAP!!! TAP!!! TAP!!! TAP!!!

[@russellj.s.257]

This song always reminded me of Iron Maiden and Stonehenge reminded me of both Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin

[@jazzx251]

The dwarfs prancing about reminds me of Jethro Tull for some reason

[@andrewpatuasic9738]

The Who and Yes too

[@debradunn109]

They are very good band I love Spinal Tap 🙏✌️👏❤️

[@dooberheim]

Ying was searching for his yang!!

[@thexalon]

The nice thing about this version is we get Derek's harmony parts. Unfortunately, if I recall correctly, it turned out Viv Savage was secretly a drummer, so we don't get his harmonies along with Derek's.

[@jerryp7721]

Shark sandwich was criminally underrated!

[@zincsterc]

You can't print that!

[@alicegrant3731]

Great band!!🎵🎸🎸

[@Lakk6Metal]

Creation now these days aint the same without the banging of a hammer against the pod , blow torch and various other tools on the pod Derek was in :) But damn i love Spinal Tap :)

[@mikekean8344]

Well, the giant chicken wasn't bad though.

[@mikekean8344]

😆😆😆

[@meotv2336]

The best

[@doomgloom8414]

yeah rock n roll!

[@valiantthor2215]

This song slaps! 🔥🔥🔥

[@Scottie_S]

Does anybody have an idea of what bass Derek (Harry) was playing? I love the sound of it. Can't get a good look at it to identify it.

[@jazzx251]

David St Hubbins died for our sins - in front of a festival crowd.

[@kevinohare9216]

I never knew that Nigel did finger-tapping on his guitar. Perhaps that's where Eddie Van Halen learned it?

[@georgecoventry8441]

There's no question that most of the Greats learned a lot of what they know from Nigel. And even a good deal of what they don't know!

[@butterflyboof]

the egg was first, duh.

[@willisknapick4405]

SMELL THE GLOVE! TAP FOREVER! 😂

[@jerryp7721]

It’s amazing how many “real” bands Metallica Et. Al. are legitimate Tap fans!

[@leightnite3056]

Wholly shit that ending !!!

[@NILBOG13]

People dont realize the bass player is Mr. Burns.

[@Ishimura89]

Says who? I would imagine most fans are aware of Harry Shearer’s extensive work on the Simpsons….

[@DonaldHolben]

A Satriani and EVH guitar

[@dallas35167]

This is damn near the only fake real band that got it right

[@maxeypad]

Derek Smalls is the man

[@crstothard]

Well, at least a portion of one.

[@willrichardson5880]

Based on Lemmy and Steve Dawson of Saxon

[@SilverTounge85]

Anyone know what the origin of them coming out of eggs comes from? Ozzy in 1986 inside the "Demon Ozzy" figure that was lowered down during the start of the set, where he was trapped inside?

[@timheavyable]

Spinal tap was released in 82

[@EmileJoulbert]

The film was shot in 1982, but they spent a lot of time editing it. It premiered in March 1984. (I think it says 1983 in Roman numerals at the end of the film, though.)

[@jazzx251]

"Smell the Glove" was 1982 ... so that can't have been origin. There's really no mystery ... David St Hubbins and Nigel Tufnel are both died-in-the-wool Christians. But they are also evolutionist scientists and visionaries. In a song like "Rock and Roll Creation", they explored themes of religion, science and evolution that had never been presented in such a way before, and never will be again. It was - literally - a song that will always stand the test of time. When anybody listens to this song in the future, they will ask the deepest of questions: "What is this? Why am I here? When will this be over?"

[@jimmytgoose476]

Wasn't it inspired by Yes ?

[@BobGolob]

It goes to 11.

[@derricklarsen2919]

On what day did god create Spinal Tap and could he not have rested on that day too 😮

[@matthewhetzler4912]

Is this from the album “The Gospel According To Spinal Tap”?

Intravenus de Milo

Nigel pops out with a Gene Simmons' scowl on his face...

[@stevewarren4813]

Of course, that night the PODs worked.

[@beaudure01]

They really weren’t the same after Viv Savage left.

[@HarvestHome2000]

How long did that drummer survive?

[@Scottie_S]

Ric Parnell is dead now. Oh, the irony. I'm sure he wouldn't mind me mentioning it, though.

I'm still anxiously awaiting the release of "Lick my love pump" in D minor from Nigel....
