Dracula’s Deuce – Hear Him Tack It Up In the Cemetary

Welcome to Dragsylvania! Drac’s ‘32 hearse is ported, relieved, strokin’ four, she’ll do 140 in the top end floor, and if it had a pair wings, man, I know she could fly. So Dracula’s got that going for him.

Oh, the horror of these lyrics stay with you long after you hit stop (which will probably be around the 13 second mark.) From 1965, I give you:

Dracula’s Deuce – The Ghouls

Special bonus song! (Amazing how many tunes there are about Dracula drag racing.)

Dracula Drag – Dickie Goodman

A much better tune for this illustration is “Dragula Au Go Go” from a great surf band, the Moon-Rays. I wish I could embed it, but head over to their MySpace page and it’s in their playlist. That platter’s got bite!

This Hearse Has a Curse! Dracula’s the name.

Rubber-Hose Dracula drag racing?! Will the horror ever subside around here??

There are lots of neat songs from days gone by about monsters dancing, surfing and even drag racing. Here we have Dracula in his Deuce rat rod roadster with dropped axle, disc brakes, and coilovers, whammy in the front and four on the floor. Full evinrude in the jimmy-caw-caw, and it’s draggin’. Finished black and white 30’s rubber-hose cartoon tomorrow!

The tune today is HOT. Seriously, one of the best Halloween tunes out there and I have my bud Trev to thank for it.
