The concept of Back from the Dead is that Spinal Tap has reunited in honor of the 25th anniversary of This Is Spinal Tap, and have launched an "unwigged and unplugged" tour. The album is packaged with a DVD featuring commentary on each of the album's tracks.
Acting
Guest, McKean, Shearer—still in character after 25 years.
Writing
Commentary tracks that roast their own fake discography.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The 'unwigged and unplugged' tour actually happened in 2009, with the actors performing as themselves AND their characters.
