The soundtrack to cornerstone music-mockumentary This is Spinal Tap is set to be reissued on vinyl this summer for the first time since its initial release.
The OST had an original, but limited, run on the format back in 1984 via Polydor, but now will see the light of day again as a black cover, black vinyl, black inner sleeved deluxe gatefold package.
The release features all eleven songs from the movie and will come with original linear notes from Rocklopedia Brittanicus. It’s scheduled for a 11 June release and can be pre-ordered here.
