And so it makes sense that several years before the 1984 release of the legendary rock ’n’ roll mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap, director Rob Reiner and stars and co-writers Michael McKean, Christopher Guest, and Harry Shearer first had to make a shorter version of the same movie: a sort of sample-size Spinal Tap, meant to whet the appetite of studios that might bankroll the real thing.

Vinyl on track to become a billion-dollar industry in 2017
If someone told you 10 years ago that Vinyl would become a billion-dollar industry by the end of 2017, what would you say?

Party like it's 1999: Finnish power metal band Battledragon covers and remakes Bomfunk MC's video from a bygone era of Minidisk Walkmans and cool remotes.
