Halloween music is the topic of this episode of Boys and Ghouls.  There is a lot of Halloween music out there to choose from, so Kat and Marshall are going to look at the important, historical stand-outs of this spooky genre as well as the real toe-tappers that, put together, can make up an excellent Halloween Mix.

Journey through decades of Halloween tracks; from the ghost and skeleton songs of the days of vaudeville, through the novelty songs of the 1950s and 60s, with its graveyard smash, “The Monster Mash”.  Then, tune in as the MTV era produces Halloween songs that are good for the clubs, including the chart-topping song about the terror on the screen, “Thriller”.

Get into the groove, as we select our choice of instrumentals, songs from musicals, and songs from movies to fill out our own Halloween mixes.  So, get a blank CD and burn, burn, burn a mix of songs and sounds to get you in that Halloween mood.  And if you can’t think of enough tracks to fill an eighty minute CD, this episode might give you some hot ideas.
