About Me |
|
Nigel Tufnel is the lead guitarist of the rock band, Spinal Tap, featured in Marty DiBergi's 1981 documentary This Is Spinal Tap. His hobbies include collecting guitars (particularly noteworthy is his unplayed, unlooked-at foam green six-string Fender Bass VI), critical analysis of rock band riders and hors d'oeuvres generally, hats and tennis. Nigel has a great love for Gumby, carrying a figurine in his shirt pocket and wearing Gumby shirts frequently. He also plays mandolin and piano (having written the classical piece in D minor (which he says is the "saddest of all keys") provisionally entitled "Lick My Love Pump"), and does backing vocals. He is also a self-proclaimed "fish nut", liking cod and canned tuna. Tufnel was born in Squatney, East London. He got his first guitar from his father at the age of six, a sunburst "Rhythm King." His life changed when he met David St. Hubbins, who lived next door. They began jamming together in a toolshed in David's garden, influenced by early blues artists like Honkin' Bubba Fulton, Little Sassy Francis and particularly Big "Little Daddy" Coleman - a deaf guitar player, and wrote their first song, Cry All The Way Home. Before long they had formed the Thamesmen, and the rest is history. Soloing Techniques: * Using a violin (as opposed to a violin bow, as perfected by Jimmy Page) to play his guitar * Kicking another guitar * Classical music inspired solos * Facial Harmonics * Turning amps to 11, which is louder than 10 by 1 STUDIO ALBUMS: * Spinal Tap Sings "(Listen to the) Flower People" and Other Favorites, 1967 * We Are All Flower People, 1968 * Brainhammer, 1970 * Nerve Damage, 1971 * Blood to Let, 1972 * Intravenus de Milo, 1974 * The Sun Never Sweats, 1975 * Bent for the Rent, 1976 * Tap Dancing, 1976 * Rock 'N Roll Creation, 1977 * Shark Sandwich, 1980 * Smell the Glove, 1982 * Break Like the Wind, 1992 These go to eleven |
