A Star Was Born
The “Lenny and the Squigtones” album that was released in 1979 featured more than one familiar face for Spinal Tap fans. It featured McKean on vocals and a young Christopher Guest on guitar, who used the pseudonym Nigel Tufnel as he would again later in the “Spinal Tap” film. Another Spinal Tap member, Harry Shearer, also made appearances on the sitcom with his future bandmate.
