Roger,
>"My ding-a-ling" was definitely the nadir of my listening experience.
Which is what I thought this thread was really about, the nadir (albeit
*perhaps* endearing for that count) of early listening experience. I
thought an example from one of what I consider the real heroes of
rock'n'roll would be a hoot.
>"Long Distance Information" was amongst the greatest.
You bet, a gem through and through.

The Monster Mash is just a notch done on my totem to "Werewolves of
London" (downloading the, ah "Werewolves of London" screensaver from
here http://www.richiesworld.com/desktopthemes/music/werewolves.html
even as I type).
"My ding-a-ling" was definitely the nadir of my listening experience.
"Long Distance Information" was amongst the greatest.
