I looked all over for this song for my Halloween Party and must have purchased a half doezen covers before I found the real 1961 Boris Pickett classic that everyone remembers. This is the one you are looking for and probably the most popular Halloween song ever. Get it now and tell them Boris sent you ;)

It's been almost half a century since Bobby "Boris" Pickett and Lenny Capizzi wrote "The Monster Mash;" but it never seems to go out of date--especially at this time of year when Halloween is fast approaching. The song is fun; it's easy to dance to even in our times; and the lyrics amuse me. Listen for "The Crypt-Kicker Five" to sing primarily on backup; they are Gary S. Paxton, Leon Russell, Johnny McCrae, Rickie Page, and Terry Berg.

If you like this song, you may want to download or purchase Bobby's album entitled "The Original Monster Mash," although admittedly the jewel of the album is "The Monster Mash." You can also buy the CD and more at Bobby "Boris" Pickett's own website. Amazon does not allow me to give out other website addresses, but you can just use Google to find Bobby's website.

Enjoy the music!

The song that was downloaded was a gift from amazon. It was great. My son used it so he could play that song at a Halloween gig with his band. It was much appreciated. thanks.

It's been covered dozens of times by everyone from the Beach Boys to the Misfits, but there is none like Bobby Picket's original 1962 hit. Put it on at your next Halloween party to really get the party started.
