Spynal Tap: Tap members originally thought they were misspelling the name of the band. As David told an interviewer in 1992 for an exclusive "Talk with Tap" that appeared on the UK CD single of "Bitch School": "It was a fad in those days to misspell words [in band names]." Derek: "We thought its supposed to be s-p-y, [but to be] clever, lets call it s-p-i. We found out later we spelled it right by mistake."
