H-Fi Halloween 2024 (115)
This time on the program, we head to the spookier corners of our record library for our annual look at hi-fi Halloween music. The Atomic Age really was a golden age for Halloween music. All the classic movie monsters were out in front—mashing, stomping, and causing all sorts frightful fun. We’re giving you all sorts of musical treats this week…and maybe a few tricks thrown in for good measure. We’ll hear from Tarantula Ghoul & Her Gravediggers, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, Bobby "Boris" Pickett, and many more.
