This is Spinal Tap

This movie does for rock and roll what "The Sound of Music" did for hills.

Rock and Roll High School. (good call, newbie! )

Heavy Metal. ("Don't worry...I've got an angle!" )

Well talking only about movies, not concerts, historical documentals of a determined band or publicity DVD's:

  1. Tommy: The music plus the excellent concept made of this movie a classic.
  2. Liztomania: Rick Wakeman and Roger Dañltrey together.
  3. Jesus Christ Superstar
  4. Help (Stupid plot but funny)
  5. Quadrophenia

Excuse me Ivan... but ELP's Rock n Roll Your Eyes was released here in the States as a movie.. at movie theaters... I saw it at the Loews Theater on 57th St. in  1975.  It started so well... until all those psychadelic and cartoon characters kept blocking my view of Greg.. that was downright disappointing....

Was anyone as disappointed by the Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus as I was? There were some great moments but it was only an hour long movie, it had "singing" by Yoko Ono, and the Stones performance was atrocious. It is worth it for three parts, Jethro Tull,  The Who, And the Dirty Mac before Yoko Ono came on.  But I highly reccommend Isle of Whight Festival as an alternative It has its share of bad music (Tiny Tim, Kris Kristofferson, Leonard Cohen) but it has the last performance of Jim Morrison and it has the Moody Blues, Jethro Tull, ELP, The Who, Hendrix,Joan Baez and others

What was the name of that film with the fictitious band called 'Strange Fruit' in ? Featured Timothy Spall as a mad drummer.Absolutely hilarious film.I enjoyed that a lot more than Spinal Tap which is overrated IMO.

But maybe we are missing the best 'In Concert' film of them all (IMHO)...

Zappa :200 Motels , Neil Young :Rust never sleeps, Spinal tap (The filmed concerts are not really movies!?! )Has anyone seen the Beatles Cameo The Ruttles :all you need is cash? I think some of the Monthy Pythons were involved in it.

I haven't seen many, but especially WOODSTOCK and BABY SNAKES (FZ) were great. FZ's 200 MOTELS looked a bit dated... still funny though!
