Some notes:

i) Not the most imaginative cover art ever realised perhaps, but gimme a break – drawing these covers is my only chance to get the crayons out all year these days.

ii) If I’d thought it through a bit more, I could have called this comp “Season of the Witch”, which would have tied in perfectly with my preferred witch theme, and the fact it’s, y’know, my THIRD Halloween CD, AND I could have put Vanilla Fudge’s Manson family nightmare rendition of Donovan’s “Season of the Witch” on it, which could have gone right after Mike Rep & The Quota’s “Donovan’s Brain”… then I could have added some dialogue and sounds from the George Romero movie of the same name, and the whole thing would have just been, like, COMPLETELY thematically consistent!

iii) But I didn’t think of any of that in time, so it’s just a bunch of horror related songs and pieces of audio that don’t really have much to do with each other at all, although hopefully the whole thing at least flows nicely… lots of soundtrack extracts and instrumentals this year, and overall the tone seems to have emerged as slightly more, um, genuinely scary/creepy, as opposed to comedic, than previous instalments, perhaps..?

iv) Somehow, I’ve also somehow forgotten to include any Electric Wizard – I always mean to. But I am going to see them play for the first time tomorrow night! Yeah! I hope they play “The Barbarian”!

v) Previous instalments can be found here and here. I don’t know whether the links are still active, but just give me a shout if you want a re-up.

vi) Disappointingly, there is little or no actual boogie on this CD.

Happy Halloween everybody!
