SoundCheck FlixEpisode 28: Adam Gimbel - "Spinal Tap" (1984)Despite not being much of a college town, Chicago produced Adam Gimbel before exporting him to California in the 1900s. Raised on the not-so-mean streets of San Diego, he became an instant lifelong fan of Spinal Tap as a teen. In college, he attended a celebrity-filled Spinal Tap drummer audition in an empty Los Angeles Coliseum shortly before meeting Harry Shearer in an even emptier club on his 21st birthday. Hopping up to sing with the English Beat's Dave Wakeling that night turned out to be the first of many times Gimbel graced stages all around California.
