Editorial Reviews
Back From The Dead is a deluxe CD/DVD package containing 19 original Spinal Tap songs, a one-hour DVD and unique pop-up diorama package that unveils three 12-inch action figures (courtesy of Sideshow Collectibles) of the band along with a proportionally sized Stonehenge. Back From The Dead is destined to be a collector's item, especially among collectors.

Okay...
the 1 hour bonus DVD with their fall on the floor laughing funny riffs on their music is worth the price of admission alone..
The music CD is actually a very cool revisitation with many familiar friends and new tricks/tunes as well....I picked it up for 9.99 and felt that even though the pop-up folder was a bit odd....that it was a very well spent ten bucks in the current economy where every entertainment dollar is to be considered.
I will admit the EW&F sort of treatment on Sex Farm and the Reggae version of Listen to the Flower People may take a bit of getting used to and make me glad to have the originals. On Short and Sweet ...guest axemen Steve Vai, John Mayer and Phil Cullen all combine to sound a bit like one Jeff Beck.
If you are a Spinal Tap fan...this is a great addition to your collection..(particularly the DVD) if you aren't....I'd recommend seeing the movie first...it will make this all the much more enjoyable and it is!

Fans! This is not a greatest hits album! This is a NEW Spinal Tap album! Rejoice!
This is really a very remarkable package for the money.
After the Black Album debacle, Tap must have decided to go all out on this one. In a package slightly thicker than a regular CD, you receive a very funny DVD with some new moments with Tap, a CD with a selection of a few reworked oldies and a great deal of new material, a booklet with lyrics and an extremely cool pop-up standee set of the entire band, complete with a festival audience.
All this for 10 bucks? Forget all the pretender rock stars who moan about their fans being screwed by the ticket brokers and the record companies while they, themselves, live off your money in shameless luxury churning out untenable crap.
Don't be put off by the inclusion of re-worked older material. These songs definitely stay true to the Spinal Tap mythos and are as valid an addition to the Tap legend as "Break Like The Wind."
I think St. Hubbins, Tufnel and Smalls all recognized they needed to thank the fans that have made them into unlikely pop icons and I believe they have released this fantastic little package at an unbelievable price to do just that.
The new material on the CD includes several selections from the Jazz Oddyssey (actual spelling) and although not appropriate for a festival crowd, on the CD they achieve the musical heights intended.
Welcome back Tap and thanks to you and your pals (Shearer, Guest and McKean) for this special treat. It's going to take a long time for this one to catch up to the number of times I've played the previous two albums, but I've already started trying.
LONG LIVE TAP!

Format:Audio CD
Spinal Tap has proven again that you don't have to write new songs to have a great album. This collection of Tap gems has a few re-imagined tracks, re-cut by original (and recently re-animated) Tap members Derek Smalls, David St. Hubbins and, of course, Nigel Tufnel.
As they "tap" into their vast history as one of Britain's loudest bands, the band amalgamates their respective synergies into a vortex of rock fury. Not for the faint of heart, this band proves, once again, that rock lives on...again.

An unexpected and rather uninspired release from the Spinal Tap boys

I want to give it more stars... WHERE'S THE VINYL 11" Lps!?!
Like JC, I have an issue with the delicate packaging on the CD/DVD set. I'm thinking of running down a second (very cheap) copy to cut down the redundant artwork to a jewel box... Read more

Surprisingly Good
For the band that never was they are very talented. The music is crisp and has a lot of variety to it. If you like Spinal Tap there is a high possibility you will like this CD.

Crank the volume to the point of pain.
Spinal Tap's most recent album mostly features remakes of the songs from the This is Spinal Tap soundtrack. Why would they choose to remake all those songs? Read more

Commentary is music to TAP fans' ears
I rented this not knowing what to expect. Two days and two times watching it later, I'm buying it. While the original movie is a classic and is wonderfully funny, it had to pause... Read more

Unnecessary
This isn't necessary. The spoof (i.e., the original movie) from 1982 is great; why try to ride it out any longer than that? Read more

Could only be better if it was in Dubly!
Thanks to David, Nigel and Derek for blurring the lines of reality once again, at least in my mind anyway.
This one goes to twelve, turn it up until your eardrums bleed.

I have been an enormous Spinal Tap fan since I saw the movie in the theater as a teenager. There's no question that the lads from Squatney redefined musical satire, and while I... Read more
