Interesting Spinal Tap discovery....

[jem88]

For Hostile, Brainpaint and anybody else who appreciates this gem of a movie: I was watching the video of Big Bottom (one of the extra features on the DVD) and I picked up something bizarre during the first few seconds of the song. If you listen carefully, you can hear the intro to Midnight Rambler by the Stones (the live version from Get Yer Yas Yas Out and Hot Rocks) playing quietly under the bass intro for Big Bottom. I don't know how that would happen but it appears that Nigel, David and Derek were listening to some Stones in the mixing room and some audio 'sediment' found its way onto the movie soundtrack. Take a listen and see if you can hear it!

Hey thanks. I'll listen for it.

I will have to check that out.

I have a question for any Zep fans.

I think the song is I can't quit you babe...

There is a squeaking sound in the song...I am not sure if the mics picked up the bass drum pedals and that is the squeaking noise, if it is another mechanical noise somewhere....or if it is an intended effect to resemble the sound of a squeaky bed (bed springs).

Anyone else ever notice it?
