LISTEN TO A CUT FROM THE STUDIO LP
Do yourself a masochistic favor and listen to the orchestra do their version of Led Zeppelin's Whole Lotta Love. Better than the original.

Happy Birthday, Zacherley!

The Cool Ghoul turns 92 today, but he doesn't look a day over 483! I didn't grow up in Philidelphia., so I couldn't watch him doing his horror-host gig on TV, but I wore out the grooves on my Dinner With Drac 45:



Thanks, Eegah!! and Tabonga!

Filipino Elvi.

Really, doesn't that CD cover just tell you all you need to know? (Except maybe for the fact that they don't do songs by Elvis, but original songs about Elvis.) Go check out the sample tracks at Music For Maniacs right now. We'll still be here when you get back.

Yub Nub. Eee Chop Yub Nub.

Like any self-respecting nerdy kid in the late '70s, I lived and died with the original "Star Wars" trilogy. Meco's 1977 disco version of the "Star Wars" theme blew my 6-year-old mind when it came out, but somehow his 1983 follow-up version of the Ewok song from "Return of the Jedi" didn't cross my 12-year-old radar. If it had, I probably would have had a junior nerdgasm over it. But discovering it now as an adult, I can recognize it for the atrocity it is. Give it a try and at least try to stick around to the 3:52 mark when a rap by a bad C-3PO impersonator really sends it off the rails.
