    I went to see the film, "High Fidelity" at the theater when it came out. This was the first time I think I had seen Jack Black in anything. And when he sings Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On", at the end of the film, I was floored and not entirely convinced it was him. About a year and half later, their eponymous album dropped and I listened to it over and over and became a D fan.

    It's CRAZY to me that you never listened to Tenacious D before! They were pretty popular back in the day. Back when I was in high school Tenacious D came out and yeah, I SUPER dig on it! Tenacious D's flippin' AWESOME! This performance is CLEARLY brief and leaves you wanting more. :P
    I hope that you continue to listen to more/other Tenacious D performances. As many others have no doubt and will no doubt recommend - I'll go ahead and hop on the bandwagon to suggest that you check out Tribute! The song's flippin' sun and it's from the early days of Tenacious D with both Jack Black and Kyle Gas. They've been working together all throughout!
    Very happy that you enjoyed this one! :)

    Jack's probably one of the most explorative singers in the world. I don't think anyone outside of highly trained classical masters has the mastery of his vocal and expressive range. Certainly not the playfulness. He's spent his whole life figuring out every cool sound his mouth can possibly make!

    Tenacious D (sort for "Tenacious Defense") is a comedy-rock band that was formed in 1994 by actors Jack Black and Kyle Gass (they were members of the "Actors' Gang", a LA based theatre company founded by Tim Robbins).
    Since then, they've released 4 albums, an HBO miniseries, a movie and a webseries.

    Tenacious D are a comedy band but at the same time are not a comedy band.
    Just listen to Wonderboy. Such an amazing song, but some of the lyrics are certainly comical.
    They kinda made their mark with most people with the song Tribute. The debut album was absolutely fantastic.
    Also they did a film for the band called The Pick Of Destiny, which was not a huge success but defo has a cult status among those that fully appreciate it.
    Songs worth checking are Wonderboy and Tribute, which I already mentioned, but also Kickapoo (which features Meat Loaf and Dio), Beelzeboss (which also features Dave Grohl) and a personal fave of mine 39, which is a blatant Neil Diamond inspired comedy track.
    They have also done some good cover versions that are complete songs. Timewarp (from The Rocky Horror Picture Show) and The Last In Line (Dio)
    I was lucky enough to see them live several years ago and they did a whole play basically, with a storyline and other characters etc

    -Tribute
    -Double Team
    -The Ballad of Hollywood Jack
    Jack Black's voice is so good that it makes ME want to learn how to sing. That's how great he is. He even got Meatloaf and Ronnie James Dio to do some verses for their Pick of Destiny movie soundtrack (Kickapoo).
