Spike Jones in Stereo
Spike Jones in Stereo is a comedy album by musical-satirist Spike Jones. Unlike his previous recordings, which make fun of genres such as Christmas and classical music, Spike Jones in Stereo is a send up of everything horror.
Making a notable guest appearance on the album is Paul Frees, who plays the voice of Dracula, Doctor Von Steiner, and one of the heads on the two headed monster. Loulie [Jean Norman], Thurl Ravenscroft, and George Rock also lend their voices.
The album was the first of Spike Jones original releases to have been re-issued on CD.
