When Slade embarked upon their one and only movie in 1974, fans and critics alike were expecting something akin to a Glam rock update of The Beatles `A Hard Days Night, released a decade earlier. After all, in the dark days of a Britain beset by strikes, power cuts and a collective musical identity crisis, Slade were the ultimate good time band: irreverent, loud and armed with a terrific set of singalong stompers.

Clip from SLADE's "Flame" movie, this is probably where spinal tap got the idea from, or at least the same story, which obviously came from Screamin' Lord Sutch's stage act.
Here's Noddy (Stoker) singing with rival band The Undertakers doing a Screaming Lord Such thing..."Flame" allthough made in the early 70's was really a document of the realities of mid 60's band life. Check out their manager who is soooo Don Arden.

Another clip from Slade In Flame. Probably the best(or at least most realistic) Rock movie ever made. Great offshore Pirate Radio/Radio City/Radio London/Caroline/Seagull type thing...
