3.0 out of 5 stars Should've stayed dead! 24 July 2009
Format:Audio CD
Being a Tap fanatic, I had to buy this CD but was left wondering what the point of it was since it's mostly reworkings of old material. Still, it was worth it to hear 'Jazz Oddysey' at last but will 'It's A Smalls World' ever see the light of day?

2.0 out of 5 stars same old same old... 17 July 2009
Format:Audio CD
I consider myself a real fan of Spinal Tap: i got the VHS tapes, the cds, the Criterion DVD, etc... so naturally i pre-ordered when i heard the guy's had a new cd. But "Back from the dead" is disappointing: only 2 new songs really, the other tunes are re-recorded classics and some studio jams. The bonus DVD is 1 hour of the guy's talking about the songs, unrehearsed and thus only sporadically funny. To make matters worse they're on an acoustic tour at the moment (???)
If you saw the band rock out on Conan O'Brien a few days ago and you want to hear more then i suggest you buy the amazing None more black album aka This is Spinal Tap and also the most excellent "Break like the wind".

4.0 out of 5 stars Great music, shame about the packaging 9 July 2009
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I'll keep this er, 'Short & Sweet' and say that I have loved Tap since 1985 and think this CD is up there with the best of them. It loses a star though because of the awful CD packaging - what were they thinking? They have even released an instructional video clip of how to put the sleeve together, which leads to me think that some problems have been encountered by previous purchasers already. Oh how I wish I'd only waited for the standard CD of this to be released.

Never mind, as I said its the music that really counts and this is excellent!

5.0 out of 5 stars There are no words great enough 2 July 2009
Format:Audio CD
Two words:

SPINAL TAP

If you don't know what those words mean then where have you been for the last 40 years???? They have been total legends since they were named The Themesmen in the late 60s, just they may have lurked in the shadows for the majority of the time, but still are about as legendary as you can get!
SPINAL TAP have played an influence on all music since they began, and also influenced the bands which formed before them!

SPINAL TAP are the definition Heavy Rock.

This album include great re-recordings of some of their well known classics, plus a handful of new songs. It's totally all 100% pure Heavy Rock, all Rock, nothing but Hard Heavy Rock.......with some adventurous ventures into Jazz, Funk, Reggae and Celtic A Cappella!

If you like music of any form at all, you owe everything to SPINAL TAP. So pay them back just a little and BUY THIS ALBUM!!!!!

SPINAL TAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars First Spinal Tap I've Ever Owned! 8 Jan 2010
Format:Audio CD
From someone who claims to have been a rocker since the 80's, I'm ashamed to say I never really knew much Spinal Tap until watching Glastonbury - so, hubby bought me this and I love it!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Boys Are Back 12 Oct 2009
Format:Audio CD
For those of us who saw them at Wembley Spinal Tap's "Back From The Dead" CD will bring back treasured memories, such as the inflatable Stonehenge collapsing on one of the dwarves or the ladies in the audience that joined the boys on stage for a very special rendition of "Big Bottom".
For those of you who weren't there, this is the next best thing....make up the stage, turn the volume up.... this one goes up to 11 (that's one louder, right?) if it's too loud....you're too old!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Tap have still got it! 2 Aug 2009
By R Lough
Format:Audio CD
This is an excellent release from Spinal Tap. The album is a collection of new songs and re-recordings of classics such as Hell Hole and Tonight I'm Gonna Rock You Tonight. The re-recordings offer a fresh take on the old hits and the new songs are great too.
The album also comes with a DVD featuring the band talking about each song individually and as usual they are absolutely hilarious.
Overall, a truly great release from Spinal Tap!

4.0 out of 5 stars Fresh re-workings and some new stuff too! 12 July 2009
Format:Audio CD
Glad I purchased this. The re-recorded versions of old favourites feel really fresh and lively, and the new additions are mostly good stuff. Good to have Warmer Than Hell on here which was written for their Live8 performance.
The DVD is excellent stuff, with David, Derek and Nigel talking us through each track on the album. They are on top bantering form, so for die-hard fans this is comedy gold. Newcomers may find the mostly static nature of their discussion a little boring, but hardcore fans will find loads of new hilarity in there!
