What albums?  You mean the ones before Gillan and Glover joined?  I used to
listen to DP a lot before I got into the Who.  Saw them once on their '85
tour - good show.  (Even saw Gillan fronting Black Sabbath a year or so
before that.  They played Smoke on the Water as an encore.)  I'd say DP
contributed about as much to the Spinal Tap mythos as did the Who.
