MA-80 - Boneyard Bash -- Celebrating Walpurgisnacht





Today, April 30, is Walpurgisnacht.

For most folks (like me), it’s just another excuse to celebrate the fun of creepiness.  So that means it’s time for an anthology of songs about the raise-the-dead aspects of Walpurgis Night.

Here’s what I’ve dug up:
01. Reveille - American Military Bugle Call (0:32)
02. Danse Macabre (Franz Liszt piano transcription) - Camille Saint-Saëns (9:59)
03. Graveyard Dance - Ray Sanders (1:44)
04. March of the Trolls - Edward Grieg (2:56)
05. Zombie Stomp - The Del-Aires (2:07)
06. Dance in the Graveyards - Delta Rae (3:40)
07. Laurie (Strange Things Happen) - Dickey Lee (3:02)
08. The Skeleton Dance (1929) - Carl Stalling (5:09)
09. 'Til the Following Night - Screaming Lord Sutch with The Savages (3:42)
10. Spooky Boogie - Cecil Campbell and His Tennessee Ramblers (2:25)
11. Zombie Jamboree (Back to Back) - Harry Nilsson (2:54)
12. Yodeling Ghost - Patsy Montana (3:06)
13. She Came Out of the Cold (1967 demo) - The Iveys (2:17)
14. The Cat - Rod Willis (2:23)
15. Tennessee Hillbilly Ghost - Terry Preston (Ferlin Husky) (2:26)
16. Cha Cha with the Zombies - The Upperclassmen (2:39)
17. Skeleton Frolic (1937) - Joe DeNat (7:13)
18. The Way Out Mummy - Bob Ridgley (2:00)
19. Rigormortis Rock - The Gazmen (2:17)
20. Pet Sematary - Ramones (3:30)
21. Misty Water Woman - Rick Springfield (4:37)
22. The Ghost Song - Salty Holmes (2:51)
23. Flip Top Box - Dicky Doo and The Don'ts (2:09)
24. Dead Shall Rise - The Dark (3:54)
