31 Days of Halloween 2017 - Day Six - Nolan Strong and the Diablos - The Wind

THE WIND

NOLAN STRONG AND THE DIABLOS

The haunting vocals mourning a lost love and the eerie mist surrounding this recording landed it on this list. One of my all time favorite doo wop songs. Enjoy!

31 Days of Halloween 2017 - Day Five - The Spiders - Witchcraft

WITCHCRAFT

THE SPIDERS

I just picked up this fun one at Euclid Records in New Orleans, recorded in 1955 by this R&B vocal group (from New Orleans) and was later recorded by Elvis in 1963.

31 Days of Halloween 2017 - Day Four - Roky Erickson - I Think Of Demons

I THINK OF DEMONS

ROKY ERICKSON

 

Roky will be on this list every year until I run out of songs of his because pretty much any of the The Evil One can be deemed a Halloween song. And I also saw him play for the 6th time last night and he is still awesome.

31 Days of Halloween 2017 - Day Three - Jack Kittel - Psycho

PSYCHO

JACK KITTEL

 

Lamentations of a serial killer from 1973, originally recorded by Eddie Noack in 1968.

31 Days of Halloween 2017 - Day Two - Eartha Kitt - I'd Rather Be Burned As a Witch

I'D RATHER BE BURNED AS A WITCH

EARTHA KITT

The voluptuous voice of Eartha Kitt returns to my Halloween countdown..."I'd rather be burned as a witch then never be burned at all!"...My admiration for her grew when I recently learned that after she spoke out against the Vietnam War the CIA branded her a "sadistic nymphomaniac."

31 Days of Halloween 2017 - Day One - Ministry - Everyday is Halloween

EVERYDAY IS HALLOWEEN 

MINISTRY

To say I am late to the party when it comes to Ministry is an understatement. Until a few weeks ago when I saw them live, I couldn't have picked Al Jourgensen out of a lineup. But obviously the show was awesome and while I still haven't absorbed much of the Ministry catalog I figured this was a good one to start with. Song is accompanied by a worth watching video of old cartoons put together by a dude named Blake Banks (thanks YouTube!) Happy October everybody!
