Doing A Small Ns Party For Halloween - Need Themed Songs

Posted

I don't mind stepping across boundaries a bit and playing a lil jazz/funk/disco/whatever. The people coming aren't soulies anyway.

So - what can I play at Halloween that fit's the bill?

Did I read somewhere that Charles Sheffield's 'Voodoo Working' was released as a Halloween novelty record? Could the Four Vandals possibly do a cover version of Monster Mash for the end of the month...?

The start of this tune was made for halloween! :)

 

You can try "This Heart Is Haunted" by either Lee Jones or Kelly Garrett, or virtually anything by Robert Johnson (Hell Hound On My Trail, etc)

 

I've also always thought that the intro to this little cracker is tailor-made for Halloween:

Oh yeah, don't think anyone's mentioned ' anything by The Killers'.

 

Have fun!

I's not "Northern" sounding, at all.  But, "Happy Ghoul Tide" by Ray Oddis (VIP Records), is appropriate for Hallowe'en.

Thanks again all. Some wonderful suggestions.



 

Glad you beat me to it Haydn, "Igor's Party" is the ultimate halloween tune. That YT clip sounds way ramped up in speed though.

Try this one, slower n' creepier ;)

Edit: My mate who turned it on to me plays it slow in the popcorn tradition, guess thats why when I heard other clips it didn't seem quite right, hah!

Great little number, the pitch will be determined by the tempo of the previous disc ;)

Just finished a kids Halloween Party....and I played virtually EVERY track featured in this thread....AND...The Lurch....and Igor's dance was played twice....through kids demand!!x

I played this twice......got it a while back....and there;'s a time and a place for every tune....and this had it's moment tonight!!!x Thanx again all....SUPER night filled with 'proper'...different tunes!!x I found a youtube clip that features 20 1920;s/30's/40's horror tunes for halloween...and there's some brill stuff among it all!!x Thanx again for the inspirational tunes!x
