    Hi, wonder if anyone can help me out with this.....

    In the movie 'This is Spinal Tap' there's a bit at the end of the song 'Heavy Duty' ("Heavy Duty...Heavy Duty, Rock and Roll!") where the band play an excerpt or riff from a classical piece.

    Anybody know the name and composer of it? (I've a feeling it's something by Mozart) It sounds really familiar.

    :)

    It's Boccherini's Minuet

    (or if your record store clerk is a picky fecker, it's "Minuet from String Quintet in E major (G275)")

    Academy of St-Martin-in-the-fields recorded a nice version for EMI in the mid-eighties if you're looking.

    Derek Small's solo bass album, was supposed to be called 'It's a small's world' but never saw the light of day.

    Not a day goes by where i don't think about it.
