I simply meant Mental Notes is clearly Prog rock, and when judged by that very significant album, they definitely deserve to be here

and I'm a big Tap fan also

This thread has inspired me to watch Spinal Tap again.  Is there a version of the movie that has commentary out-of-character?  Where they give insight on some of the film's inspiration?

I would have liked to hear that prog epic they were going to write about Jack the Ripper.


you mean Saucy Jack

..and BTW;  if you couldn't believe Split Enz were added then you either have not heard Mental Notes or you have an incredibly narrow view of Prog (which doesn't seem to be the case)

Why do I think that I've been shot down again. Cry  I'll send it when it's done. But so far it's pretty silly I'm warning you. I have even gone through just about every interview I could find. Best one was with Nigel when he complains that most of the time they could find the stage but Marty DeBergi had to use footage shot on one of the rare occasion when they couldn't find the stage.
I remember an interview with Ozzy commenting on Spinal Tap. He didn't find it funny because most of the things in This Is Spinal Tap really happened to him including not being able to find the stage on more than on occasion!

Please let us have a read before the evaluation team, if still alive after the read (place your bets now), proceed with the matter.

Bad choice. I mean Corn ... what ... fakes or flakes. You need a better company to vodka - potatoes, meat, fish, mushrooms (not the ones which extend your boundaries though) etc. And a friend to talk with.

Not if you are eating corn flakes in a bowl of vodka. Then the inclusion of Spinal Tap in PA becomes far more important than life itselves.

I saw them live in 91 and the Stonehenge portion was very proggy.  Good concert.
