Tricks Or Treats - Various Artists Halloween Grab Bag

Dartman's Worlds of Wonder usually posts quite a few Halloween 'mix-tapes' for us to enjoy each year. This year he is continuing the tradition but is posting 'grab bags' of music. It's random and you won't know what you are getting until you download but based on his past history it's sure to be lots of great stuff.

Freddie Gage - The Drug Epidemic

60's religious psychobabble - hey, guess what? We are all still alive and kicking. Society was NOT ruined.

Space 1999 OST

In-Flight Entertainment has posted the 1976 soundtrack to this early modern science fiction tv show. I have posted a youtube video with the intro just to get you into the mood for this fabulous late 70's disco-space music.

Barbarella - The Young Lovers

Here is a strange one: an expoitation album based on an exploitation movie.

The Bold Humor of Davey Bold

This relatively unknown comedian is actually pretty funny. A little un-pc but somewhat acceptable for the time.

Morton Stevens Orchestra - Hawaii Five-0 - Television Soundtrack (1968)

Let's step in the time machine and go all the way back to 1976 to enjoy some disco/funk goodness by way of the Car Wash soundtrack.

THE PANORAMIC SOUND OF LENNON AND McCARTNEY by Cyril Stapleton His Choir and Orchestra

The Papy Potage Mixtapes

This won't be for everyone but I have really been enjoying Papy Potage's mixtape podcasts. There is lots of variety here (punk, 1960's Asian rock and pop, indie, and lots more) and he doesn't do any kind of regular schedule but if you enjoy discovering new music this should be a podcast that you will love.

Vintage Turkish 45's

I normally link to specific albums for Music Monday posts but this time I wanted to highlight the Ponytone blog. As a huge fan of 70's Turkish pop music (I keep trying to buy some on eBay but the price always gets too high!) I was nearly jumping for joy when I stumbled upon this web site. The last post was February 9 of this year so hopefully the blog isn't already dead!

Miss Pat Collins – The Hip Hypnotist: Turn On! (1967)

I don't know much about this one as I am presently downloading but it looks to be quite entertaining!

Dick Smart 2.007 - Original Soundtrack (1967)

Here is an obscurity (for me at least) - a 1960's Italian spy spoof film soundtrack. At least I think it's a spoof, I have never seen it (or even heard of it until now).

The Karate Kid - Original Movie Scores

Unfortunately this is only the scores from the movies so you don't get the absolutely horrific 80's soundtrack but you do get all three movies so it's a tradeoff I guess.

My Pussy (cat) Belongs To Daddy - Faye Richmond

This one comes from the 'I Really Really Can't Believe This Is Real' department. This is a really awfully titled masterpiece of 50's schlock.

Sam The Sham - Lil' Red Ridiing Hood (1968)

Here is a nice 45 from Sam the Sham (of "Wooly Bully" fame).

John, Paul, George, Ringo and... Bert! - Original Cast Recording

How about the original cast recording to the 1974 Beatles themed musical?

From wikipedia

John, Paul, George, Ringo...& Bert is a 1974 play by Willy Russell based on the story of The Beatles. It premiered at the Everyman Theater in Liverpool in May 1974 where it ran for eight weeks and later moved to the Lyric Theatre in London in August 1974, where it ran for a year and was later named "Best Musical of 1974" by the Evening Standard and London Critics' awards.[1] It featured the music of the Beatles performed by Barbara Dickson. It also briefly ran in the United States in 1985.[2]
According to an interview with Creem magazine, George Harrison stated that he saw the play with Derek Taylor and greatly disliked it.[3], he walked out while attending the London premiere and withdrew his permission to use his song "Here Comes The Sun".[4] It was replaced with "Good Day Sunshine".[5]

I am a sucker for a good novelty record so I couldn't pass sharing this link to a bunch of great rare tunes from the 50's
