Spinal Tap’s Derek Smalls Made A New Music Video With Chad Smith

Derek Smalls — formerly of the band formerly known as Spinal Tap — is back. His debut solo album, Smalls Change (Meditations Upon Ageing), is scheduled for release via Twanky Records/BMG on April 13.

In the meantime, you can watch the music video he made with Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer and Will Ferrell look-alike Chad Smith for the song “It Don’t Get Old,” above.

“Smalls Change is a poignant and oftentimes furious contemplation on ageing that explores the passing of time and all things loud. With styles that cross the gamut of musical bases, the album possesses the edgy rawness and Rock God sensibility that was always shared by Derek and his fellow former band members, Nigel Tufnel and David St. Hubbins and, is now all too evident in his solo work. The album also features some of the greatest talents of rock and roll music and beyond including Peter Frampton, Donald Fagen, Dweezil Zappa, Rick Wakeman, Richard Thompson, Steve Lukather, Joe Satriani, Waddy Wachtel, Michael League, Jeff “Skunk” Baxter, Paul Shaffer, Steve Vai, Larry Carlton, Judith Owen, Jane Lynch and The Hungarian Studio Orchestra. Smalls Change is produced by C J Vanston.”
