SPOOK ALONG WITH ZACHERLEY - Zacherley

YEAR: 1960

LABEL: Elektra

TRACK LISTING: Coolest Little Monster, A Wicked Thought, Ghoul View Commercial, A Sure Sign of Spring, Transylvania P.T.A., Frank and Drac Are Back, Come With Me To Transylvania, Spider Man Lullaby, Ring-A-Ding Ourangoutang, Baying at the Moon, Zacherley For President

IMPRESSIONS: Nothing could be better than a Zacherley album and this is my second favourite of his three original albums after the classic MONSTER MASH discussed elsewhere. SPOOK ALONG contains some of my all-time favourite Zach tracks such as "COOLEST LITTLE MONSTER" and "SPIDER MAN LULLABY".

MY FAVOURITE TRACKS: Coolest Little Monster, A Wicked Thought, Ghoul View Commercial, A Sure Sign of Spring, Transylvania P.T.A., Spider Man Lullaby, Baying at the Moon, Zacherley For President

FACT SHEET: SPOOK ALONG WITH ZACHERLEY is the Cool Ghoul's first album. The title is a play on Mitch Miller's TV show "SING ALONG WITH MITCH". The album was recorded with a full orchestra and produced by Stan Rhodes and Gerald Alters. The original vinyl LP came with a book and poster set tying in with the "Zacherley For President" campaign and the Ted Bates advertising agency also came up with a faux campaign platform for the Cool Ghoul.
