Description
"Spinal Tap" (from left): Michael McKean, David Kaff, Christopher Guest, R.J. Panell and Harry Shearer. Spinal Tap is fiction. You won't find Shank Hall in the phone book. And Derek Smalls is actually comedian Harry Shearer, who spent a year on "Saturday Night Live." It's all part of a perverted movie parody directed by Rob Reiner, aka Meathead in "All in the Family." "This is Spinal Tap" is a funny mock rock-umentary that follows the misadventures of four members of a heavy metal band on tour.
