Is that a dig on those of us who are differently re-animated?

Baldur

Oh certainly not Bugoy1 I love the reanimate.

But let us transition now onto the topic of Hallowe'en.
I think it would be fun to build the ultimate Hallowe'en Party music playlist.
Let me start with this juicy number

'They're coming to take me away' by Napoleon XIV

Baldur

..and the obversive: 'I'm happy they took you away' by Josephine.

Baldur

and if that isn't enough, the B side of Napoleon XIV's version which is the same song played in reverse. Life is good.

Two that I will be looping for my darling candy ankle biters:

And

I fill my yard with dancing pumpkins and sugar skull skeltons. Creepy cheer!

Btw Napoleons orginal is still so fabulous.

Fangzzz

No sure why my links are bad but the first is Skelton Watlz by Dave Thomas. The second Faran Flad version of Shaking of the Sheet which is strangely addictive.

Baldur

Both excellent additions Fangzzz. Here are the hopefully functional links:

'the Shaking of the Sheets' by Faran Flad
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0HWgjcwrAc

Baldur

Here is the theme song froom the old television version of
'The Addams Family'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3CH0tN515M

To this day I think Carolyn Jones made that show as wonderful as it was.

Baldur

Warren Zevon's timeless 'Werewolves of London'

Thank you Baldur! Loved the flamenco guitar played by Ash Wainman and Benjamin Woods. I would consider adding one to my collection.
Also enjoyed Faran Flad. I would add them to my East Coast music collection.

And thanks Fangzzz for those adorable furballs on youtube!

My forever Addams Family couple have to be Angelica Houston and Raul Julia (who sadly is no longer with us).

More Zevon YEA!!!

"Excitable Boy"

Baldur

I'm glad you are enjoying this indigo.
Here is another before my daily errands begin.
The classic Sam the Sham & the Pharaohs' 'Little Red Riding Hood'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwNP9HOFvwQ

Baldur

The music just keeps on coming.
There are many versions of this song, 'Disco Inferno' by the Trammps, online. Being a sentimental fool I chose this version introduced by Wolfman Jack for this countdown.
Enjoy.

Baldur

It is time to pile on the atmosphere.
Nina Simone singing 'I Put a Spell on You'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SL44gqUne0w

Baldur

Some Halloween silliness, not one but two clips of Adam West as Batman, dancing the Batusi..... as only he could

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVn7mIHog68

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exhNT2_bHs8

Baldur

Jim Stafford had a few frightful follies on the radio.
Here is 'Spiders and Snakes'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGJVA6pKWpw

Baldur

This is another by Jim Stafford.
'Swamp Witch'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrEDZ31EEaA

Baldur

Next a song from a goddess that I have conversed with online. She is a charming chanteuse. Buy her music, every record library would be enriched by her classic album: 'Polka-Haunt-Us'

Veronique Chevalier, with her song 'Vampire Surprise'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjX3uw6lKGg

Baldur

Of course what Hallowe'en list would be complete with Bobby 'Boris' Picket's 'Monster Mash'?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0thH3qnHTbI

Baldur

Here is an interesting one.
Stevie Wonder performing 'Superstition' live on Sesame Street.
It appears to have been filmed in the 1970s.

He also is wearing a wristwatch. I understand that there are probably electronic watches now that would be of use to a blind man, but back then?
Was there such a device that could audibly give one the time and be as small as a watch?
