Another Edinburgh session tune; written by Niall Kenny, the same flute player behind the 'Trip to Pakistan'. Although the key at first looks odd for the flute it works out very easily on an 8-keyed instrument

... Where did he get the tune name from?

Spinal Tap
I don't know if this is the same tune, but I will check. I know that Niall wrote a tune and called it "Baby, Suck My Love Pump", which came from a quote in the spoof "rockumentary" "Spinal Tap", one of the funniest films ever. Sorry if this is too much detail for those of a sensitive disposition - blame Niall.

I think "Sucks" would be a better name for it.

I agree with Dow
This tune really does suck - as our american cousins would say. I cannot imagine anyone ever bothering to learn it.

Niall's written some good tunes and he's a great flautist and good guy. However, i'm not to keen on this one either.
