“Hallow​-​Baloo” - Vance Midnight and his Swank Bodies (Rare 1968)

from Spectacular sounds of Halloween Vol. 2 by Kill the Hippies

/

about

Very rare cut from long forgotten late movie host Vance Midnight's Halloween Novelty 45. Recorded to fulfill a contract a full two months after being fired from WQRN for drunken behavior, his vocals were recorded separate from the studio musicians (according to sources, he was impossible to work with). The studios engineers were able to cull very little clean material from Vance's vocal session and had to leave one tirade on the cut. They attempted to cover their losses by marketing the record as an adult novelty, but since it could only be sold in adult bookstores, the whole project was a total financial failure.
