The original version of what later became "Indian Reservation", a huge hit for The Raiders in early 1971. This was written by John D. Loudermilk, who also wrote "Tobacco Road" (a hit for The Nashville Teens and The Animals), "Waterloo" (a hit for Stonewall Jackson) and "Sad Movies Make Me Cry" (a hit for Sue Thompson) among many other things.

An old favorite

A great rendition of "Memory" by them from the 80s.

A great rendition of a Louis Armstrong classic from Steve Perry (former lead singer of Journey from 1977-1987 and 1995-1998). Believe it or not, Steve is now 75.

Michael, that was a very nice rendition of "What a Wonderful World".  The Louis Armstrong version is still my favorite, but this one is good too! 

Me too ------

A countrified version of the classic 1964 song "Haunted House". This was originally recorded by Jumpin' Gene Simmons. This version is from 2009.

A polka version of the theme from Ghostbusters. The Heimatdamisch is a German polka cover band from Bavaria.

A nice medley by Irish accordionist Dermot O'Brien and his band.

A forgotten monster-themed novelty tune from late 1964.

Here's a cheerful, happy song to get us all through the coming week.  
 Wake me when it's over!     

Here's a "Happy Song" from Canadian pianist Frank Mills (best known for "Music Box Dancer"). This is from his 1980 album The Frank Mills Album

Back to the spooky stuff, here's a great one from 1962 by Merv Griffin, combining an upbeat instrumental with crazy vocal effects. It even briefly quotes the 3rd movement of Chopin's 2nd piano sonata in a couple of places. Hard to believe this is the same guy who went on to fame and fortune creating TV game shows.

No surprise Michael:  Remember Merv's hit song,   I've Got a Loverly Bunch of Coconuts.   Griffin was the vocalist with the Freddie Martin Orchestra, during the 1940's and '50's.  He was very active in all kinds of show biz in Southern California, during those years.  A very smart businessman! 

Another fun Halloween-themed song from Merv and friends. This one's from 1961.

Here's my musical contribution to Halloween.   
Witchy Woman, by Donovan.  I prefer the original by The Eagles, but couldn't understand the lyrics on the video, so decided to go with this one.
