"Monster Mash" . . . debuted in 1962. . . . One of the first records I bought. I was 9 years old. I think Rolf Harris's "Tie Me Kangaroo Down" was big in America around the same time (which I also bought). I got interested early in comedy "novelty songs."

My favorite Halloween special song. I guess Snoopy and the Red Baron is my favorite Christmas era song. Now trivia buffs, what group did that one?

I’m not amazed to see Leon Russel has a small roll to play in this. His genius has been behind the scenes in dozens of records over the years.

The same group that did “The Battle of New Orleans,” wasn’t it? Don’t know their name, but sure remember their sound.

Mel Torme said “All you need is one really great song” to put food on the table. The rest is just gravy. This coming from the guy who wrote a lot of songs, but none more endearing than “Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire”.

About 1963 I had an avocado plant named "Arthur."
Arthur had the Monster Mash played to it loudly for 30 minutes before sunup and 30 minutes after sundown for 3 months.
It's twin was moved to a quiet room for those times. Arthur grew measurably faster.
