 Classic Monster dance party LP "MONSTER MELODIES" (Featuring Frankie Stein and his Ghouls" (1965)
This is the STEREO version and the third of 5 albums released by Frankie Stein and his Ghouls on
POWER records. These albums are in GREAT shape and near-impossible to find in this condition usually.
(THIS LP FEATURES MUSIC BEDS OF BEATLES SONGS FROM THE SAME TIME PERIOD!!)
I'm selling two of the other LPs in separate auctions this week. Below is a detailed write up and track listing
for this ground-breaking music series!


On the cover we have the Mummy, the Creature & that hairy gorilla fellow. Looks like they’re checking out what they got for Halloween in the candy bowl.
Pretty nifty artwork, again by that unknown artist.

1) Doctor Spook (Twist) 2:04

A haunting ditty starts off Frankie’s fourth album after a blood curdled scream, then continues with a snappy snare beat. Some Frankenstein feet are heard walking along at the end of this short number.

2) In A Groovy Grave (Watusi) 1:59

Another blood curdling scream begins this basic tune & a bit of silverware is heard. Then at the minute 20 mark Frankie starts blubbering to the music. Really has me laughing everything I hear it. "Dead…Dead…Dead."

3) Frog Frug (Frug) 2:07

Boing boing boing boing. Frankie certainly had a way of making his music different. After the springing opening, the chug-a-chug beat keeps you bouncing while the harp plays on. Not much but a really hoppin number!

4) Melancholy Monster (Hully Gully) 2:10

Is something spanking a child at the opening to this one? This is one of my favorite Frankie’s due to the fact that I heard it first on his last album (the first in my collection). A bit of Frankie saying ‘yeah’, a whizzy, & some silverware is a great mixture for a great hit. Yeah.

5) Haunted Mouse (Slow Rock, Surf) 2:40

A sad Moon River sounding ballad that contains a few whizzys, silverware, & even some crying. Pass me a tissue please.

6) Ghoulish Heart (Hully Gully, Twist) 2:14

With a pop pop pop bang, another cool Frankie tune begins. Really cool & I love the ‘Whoo hoo hoo’ singing. Again these are the ones that I like the most. Frankie’s singing is a gas.

7) Dressed To Kill (Fox Trot) 2:12

It’s raining again & Frankie slow things down a bit. With that demented laugh & the silverware clanging it looks like that squeaky duck might be dinner.

8) All Choked Up (Surf) 3:17

Man the screaming at the start of this one really creeps me out again. Do we have another girl on the rack? A bouncy ditty here with sax & whizzys moves things right along. A bit longer that most of Frankie’s compositions & ends kind of abruptly. Hmm?

9) Swingin’ Head (Swim) 2:34

A duck, an ghost (or owl), & a couple bangs starts this mediocre tune. It reminds me of the tune ‘King of the Hill’. Contains ghosts, clattering, & cranking.

10) Ain’t Got No Body (Mashed Potato) 2:10

Okay, is that sound someone on a pogo stick, or a couple making it in bed at the beginning of this one? A fairly decent tune to end this album. Complete with whizzys. Oh & how bout that Beatles ‘She Loves You’ riff?
