Halloween Howls


01. Halloween Howls (45:00)

Not one of them is correct!

·         Bonus Mix by Deep Blue & Rhodsey (Moving Shadow) (45:00)

·         Monroe Products - キャットナッパー
·         Hemi-Sync Meditation (45:00)

·         Pink Floyd - more

·         Àíäðåé Ïàòðóøåâ - Ãèïíîç è ñàìîãèïíîç
·         Ãèïíîç è ñàìîãèïíîç (45:00)

·         St. Gayane Chorus, Armenia. Conductor: Komitas Keshishian - Komitas: Armenian Mass (Komitasyan Patarag) part 1
·         Armenian Mass (Komitasyan Patarag) part 1 (45:00)

Total Time - 31:01

Mancini's "Monster" Hits

Sad news for you, friends.  When you print your own disc, it won't glow in the dark.  Sorry!

This disc reminds me of an infant's tombstone I once heard of:  "It is so soon that I was done for, / I wonder what I was begun for."  You may feel the same when you listen and realize the whole thing is only, like, less than twenty minutes long.

Still, here it is:

01. The Monster Gets Mark (from The Creature from the Black Lagoon) (6:50)
02. The Thing Strikes (from It Came from Outer Space) (4:51)
03. Main Title from Nightwing (3:22)
04. Surround Fantastique (0:58)


You tell me.  Is "Surround Fantastique" much of a "bonus track," if it's less than a minute long?

*grumble*

Grumbles over, Mister Sunshine here!  See you back on Monday!
