STUCK IN THE VINYL AGAIN - DRACULA'S GREATEST HITS - GENE MOSS & FRED RICE

[maggot]

Good mourning goblins and trolls and welcome to the All Hallow's Eve edition of Stuck In The Vinyl Again, otherwise known as Friday.  With just one terrifying day to Halloween, we offer up this 1964 RCA Victor novelty release, Dracula's Greatest Hits. The album, features Gene Moss, host of KHJ-TV's (Los Angeles) classic monster-themed kids' show, SHRIMPENSTEIN,  on vocals, with lyrics penned by him and Fred Rice and musical accompaniment by Billy Riley. The front and back artwork is by page favorite Jacks Davis and the LP originally contained 10 Monster Cards (also by Davis), but those cards were long-gone before the LP found it's way home to us.
