And then take that remaster and let Zeus and Ghandi have a freestyle rap battle over the top of it. And then take that record and wipe  This Is Spinal Tap 's…" ...yeah.

No creo ser la única a la que le gustan las películas sobre música. Especialmente cuando estas retratan, con mayor o menor fidelidad, lo que pasa detrás del escenario, una experiencia que la mayoría de nosotros tal vez nunca pueda experimentar en vivo y a todo color. Aunque claro, esto no es lo único que nos ofrecen estas cintas. Ahí están, por ejemplo, los soundtracks de antología y la aparición especial de nuestros músicos favoritos. Y las bandas . Sí, las bandas. Porque para haya una gran película musical tiene que haber un grupo o un solista, [...]

There once was "an Englishman with a very high voice, doing rock'n'roll." He hailed from Lowestoft in the kingdom's easternmost reaches, and derived his craft from hairy fretboard fiddlers whose luscious manes would be showered with the radiant spotlights of stadia nightly. He would climb into clinging catsuits which hugged his svelte figure as a steely panther might its prey. A genuine eccentric topped off with a tennis visor, his wife would be his manager and his brother his subdued foil forever cling filmed in a Thin Lizzy tee. They stole a summer – that of 2003 – before their [...]

Jens Lekman's new record I Know What Love Isn't is out this week, and on the whole it's a pretty morose affair, as befits its status as a breakup album. Still, even on a record this subdued, Lekman's signature humor can't help but shine through, despite the fact that he's left some of his funniest recent songs (namely "Waiting for Kirsten" and "An Argument With Myself") off the tracklisting. The fact that Lekman's songs are often as witty as they are moving is something that we've always liked about him — after all, love is frequently as bewildering, ridiculous, [...]

The cigarette in Dirk McQuickly's hand played right into the "Dirk is Dead" rumors. The Rutles The Beatles This week instead of Cover Friday, I'm making it "Parody Friday" - and for the specific idea of doing the Rutles, my thanks go to loyal Reselect reader Terry McDermott, who suggested it earlier this week. Seeing as I had nothing else yet lined up for today anyway, it seemed as good a week to do it as any. The Rutles were a 1978 [...]

Great movie, even better scene... if you haven't seen Spinal Tap then put that one at the top of your New Years Resolution's list. But as far as music goes I'd like to take a bit of time and let you guys know exactly what bands I feel "went to eleven" this year. These are [...]

I would be remiss if I let 11/11/11 pass without acknowledging the profound cultural influence of Spinal Tap 's legendary guitarist, Nigel Tufnel. Sure, his solos were his trademark, but he doesn't get nearly enough credit for rediscovering the saddest of all keys (D minor) in all its Machian splendor. And who else but Nigel dared ask, "What's wrong with being sexy?" However, if one Tufnelian contribution stands above all others in the Western canon, it was his emotional bravery to suggest that at our best, we can all go to 11. [...]

It's 11-11-11 and Nigel Tufnel Day is being celebrated the world over!

From Nigel's Wikipedia page : Tufnel was born in Squatney, east London. He was given his first guitar, a sunburst 'Rhythm King', by his father at six. His life changed when he met David St Hubbins (Michael McKean) who lived next door. They began jamming together [...]
