Thread: Spinal Tap - Stonehenge

    Unhappy

    I was searching for the tabs for the mando part of the Spinal Tap song, Stonehenge. #I can't seem to find them anywhere. #It seems it would be an easy piece to learn, but I am no musical master and cannot figure it out by ear. #I was hoping somebody here may be able to help me out a little.

    I guess this goes to show I should dig a little deeper next time I am searching for something. Anywho, thank you very much for your help, it is much appreciated.

    Today is the 29th anniversary of the release of the great mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap. An advanced search of the forum shows we have 12 different threads over the years dedicated to the movie, including favorite quotes.

    I discovered at some point someone contributed the following tablature for the song Stonehenge, from the movie. Someone named... wait for it, Nigel, contributed it. Alright. Crank up to 11 and try it out. Don't know if this version is accurate but sounds close.

    Stonehenge
    From the Mockumentary, This Is Spinal Tap, directed by Rob Reiner.
