I've been waiting for this one ... Reverend Frost has creative and interesting mixes throughout the year, but the only ones I care about are the Halloween ones! His mixes are always a good combination of oldies and rarities ... this one looks good. I haven't even listened to it yet, but I wanted to mix sure y'all knew about it.

Thanks to the good Reverend!

Reverend Frost's latest kick-ass Halloween mix!

I've listened to this one a few times... might be a modern classic. I played it for my kids and they are plenty freaked out. You should give it a try. Nice job on the songs, but terrific on the stories (most of which are familiar, but Buck's fingerprints are on them all). Good storytelling.

And, as the website clearly indicates, it won a Grammy Award.

Here are some classic sound effects recordings from the late 70's / early 80's. I listened to the first one at work ... definitely some classic sounds in there. I know you've heard the organ music in more than one place. Hope you like them. The first one is at a pretty decent bitrate ... the last two not so much, but not awful.

Sound Effects Vol 27 - Even More Death and Horror

Dan Augustine has compiled another solid mix of Halloween songs. (Gotta love those retro album covers too ... I think he likes Hammer Films.) ALL of his mixes (8 in all) are available through 11/1/2011, so get 'em while they're hot hot hot!

And thanks to Dan for another fun mix.

One of my favorite blogs this time of year is Music You (Possibly) Won't Hear Anyplace Else. Every year he pulls out some hard-to-find oldies from way way back. Lots of old novelty records, orchestral works ... stuff you possibly won't hear anyplace else. How 'bout that?

Here's his first slaylist of the year!
Slaylist time!
