new music tuesday

Today is October 17, Two weeks before Hawlloween and it was on this day in 1962 that Bobby Pickett & the Crypt-Kickers noviey Halloween song "Monster Mash" hit No.1 on the Billboard Pop Chart and it re-apperd on the chart in 1970 and 1973 and have been staple of cover bands at this time ever since.

Also on this day hiting no.1 for the first and only time Chuck Berry with his rude Novtiy song "My Ding-a-Ling" and he will turn 80 tomorrow.



And speaking about new released it was on this day in 1995 that Rhino Home Video releases all 58 episodes of "The Monkees" on 21 VHS cassettes, it became the largest video boxed set ever, i wonder how they will do on the DVD Format but hey why wait for today New music from the only bands that matters.
