Vampire Circus - Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats.

Victims of the Vampire - Slaughter and the Dogs

I love digging up the old and new Halloween Specials from this site.  Thanks Mal.  and Podcasters in general should never think the Halloween special gets old; I think most people are waiting for those.  garage punk and Halloween go hand in hand.

I have a mess of 'em in THE MAL THURSDAY SHOW Halloween Special, but I left out a whole set of psycho killers: "Strangler of Boston Town" by Thee Headcoats, "Albert, Albert" by the Bugs, "Night of the Sadist" by Larry & the Bluenotes, "Richard Speck" by the Chesterfield Kings...

Of course , The Horror Rockin' Horror Rock King , Roky Erickson , and The British Prime Minister of The Sinister , Screaming Lord Sutch.

The Fuzztones did a respectable "Night of The Vampire" , but , Roky Erickson's original version is one of the greatest non - Novelty Hallowe'en Hymns , ever.

3-D Invisibles , to my knowledge , are still around , but , only playing around Hallowe'en in Detroit (They used to sometimes play the odd Hallowe'en night in Chicago , as well , and opened for Rudi Protrudi , here , about 5 years ago.). bUT , GOOGLE 'EM OR CHECK THEIR MYSPACE OR FACEBOOK - YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO ORDER THEIR CDs , which are all great. They've been around since the early 80's. They refuse to grow up. THEY WON'T STAY DEAD.

 Dracula's Greatest Hits - Gene Moss as Lugosi and Karloff w/ music by Billy Lee Riley. Great Jack Davis artwork. It even came with Jack Davis Monster Cards , but , I've never seen 'em.

Spike Jones in Stereo/Hi Fi.           Late 50's. Great novelty Horror songs with Lorre , Karloff , Vampira and Lugosi mimics (Very good , too , but , the best moment is "I Was a Teenage Brain Surgeon" by a guy who's voice is so impossibly low , I thought it was the singer from the original (And only ) "Grinch" , but it's not ).

Anything by Transylvania 500

Rob Zombies Halloween Hootenanny

Ghastly Ones et. al

Anything by Murder Lane on the album Ghoul TV......if you can find a copy.

"Right , Vamp , you're messing with The Big Boys , now !" - Neil "The Young Ones".
