Spinal Tap Classic Gets Twisted For Fat Chicks
. Eddie and company contribute a new incarnation of the Spinal Tap favorite "Big Bottom," a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the well-padded posterior. "Big Bottom" is infamous for featuring three separate bass parts (bass, lead bass, rhythm bass) with no guitars whatsoever. A bass-centric tune with a lot of low end, it's a bottom-heavy ode to the bottom-heavy girl. "When I was first asked if I wanted to cover 'Big Bottom,' I thought it was a joke! I mean, why would you ask a guitarist to play on a song with no guitars?" commented a bewildered Eddie Ojeda. "That's like hiring Dee Snider to record a song and then telling him not to sing on it! I just figured I'd stumbled into an easy gig, since my band would end up doing all the work. In the end, I did find a way of adding my own personal touch to the song, while also being respectful to the bass-heavy sound of the original." "It wasn't hard playing all three bass parts," added Chris McCarvill, "but it was hard playing them all at the same time. There has to be an easier way to do this!" The exhausted McCarvill then passed out from his exertions and declined to comment further. "Remember, you can't spell BASS without ASS!" remarked singer Andre Vanchot, moments before dropping trou and mooning hapless bandmate B.J. Zampa. Summing up the band's collective pride in the finished product, Ojeda beamed, "I think our version is absolutely killer. On a scale of 1 to 10, I give it an 11!" A sample of the song is now available at the official "Whole Lotta Love" MySpace page here Preview and Purchase Twisted Sister CDs |
