These guys were the band Spinal Tap in the movie of the same name.

The female bass player sounds like principal Skinner. Weird.

komjong

Isn't that the guy from the Lavern and Shirley show?

Chester Copperpot

Wonder if this is where Guest got the idea for A Mighty Wind lol

ZelbeQahi

These guys are geniuses. I believe they were SNL writers? Isn't that Lenny from Laverne & Shirley? Was Guest in The Long Riders?

Marc Bennett

The folk history of Start Me Up. Pete Seeger did this in Providence, RI in 1958, right? Kum-ba-yah!

Steve Fowler

purple haze is actually electrified folk music...the audience and the host are clueless about music.

Steve Fowler

conan shows his ignorance about music

BHAKTI BROPHY

So this is what happened to Spinal Tap!: )

Gitte Bjerre Braae

Rather late in discovering these three.....and realise that I've loved them from when they first appeared:)

Vicki Lawshe

hahahahahaaaa "Ol' Purple Haze"

Conan was intimidated by Harry and rightfully so. Many people forget that they worked together on writing for the Simpsons. Harry caught him off-guard to make a point. Probably the same point he was making between 1991 and 1993 that Conan fails ( to this day ) to pick up on. you don't want to get into a pissing contest with Harry on most any subject, really.. He is a 'Pandora's box' of knowledge. :)

3:25 Michael McKean is correct in my humble fact. :)

Old Purple Haze

i love christopher guest and michael mckean echoing each other "sure" "sure" "yeah" "yeah"

David Ditch

-After the big applause at 0:30, Harry gives a very genuine "thank you!". -The "solo" at 1:00 is insane. All of them are really talented but Guest is off the charts. He would have had a great musical career had he taken that path.

Furry Lewis

"...it was originally called Old Purple Haze..."

Visda58

3:51 Mckean does the awkward yet subtle head down, chin-into-neck smile; body language showing how uncomfortable he still is with his bandmate's gender-swap. ...The little things that make this trio fucking genius.

WDRowlett

Too hilarious.
