VARIOUS ARTISTS
Dr. Demento Presents: The Greatest Novelty Records Of All Time (Volume III - The 1960s)
1985 U.S. pressing

Some late night chuckles for last spin of the night.

All the hilarious usual suspects of the novelty realm are here; Tiny Tim, Bryan Hyland, Napoleon XIV, The Trashmen, and my personal favorite, Ray Stevens’ sublimely absurd “Guitarzan”!

I believe Dr. Demento did God’s work, and was a king among men. Someone needs to make a legit biopic on him NOT starring Rainn Wilson.

THIS is why being a vinyl collector is awesome. WHERE ELSE could I have discovered something like this?

What is it you ask?

A comedy album about farting.
That’s all.
Nothing more, nothing less.
👃 💩

I’ll see myself out.

There's this nightclub act from the mid-20th century called Kay Martin & Her Bodyguards, which I've been obsessed with since finding a thrift store 'cheesecake' record called "I Know What He Wants For Christmas...But I Don't Know How To Wrap It!".

It's difficult to find information about them online, so I was thrilled to discover that someone in Reno got curious about the "Kay Martin Lodge" and went to the trouble of digging through local news archives and turned up a good handful of press clippings - including this badass publicity shot of Kay standing between Sammy Davis Jr. and actor Wild Bill Elliott.
