BOB MCFADDEN & DOR - Songs Our Mummy Taught Us (Limited Clear With Orange Pumpkin Swirl Vinyl)

What do Frankenberry, Richard Hell, a cat named
Sloopy, and Bill Haley and His Comets have in
common? You can find out with Real Gone Music and

Second Disc Records' first-ever reissue of the long-
lost Halloween classic Songs Our Mummy Taught Us!

This one-of-a-kind, super-rare LP was the creation
of voiceover artist Bob McFadden-best-known as
the voice of Frankenberry, the Thundercats' pal
Snarf, Cool McCool, and countless others-and the

mysterious "Dor," otherwise known as singer-
songwriter (and America's best-selling poet!) Rod

McKuen. Rock-and-roll and beat culture met horror
headfirst on this off-the-wall album, with McFadden
taking the role of a not-so-scary Mummy and McKuen
voicing a blas beatnik on its best-known song, the
novelty hit "The Mummy." According to McKuen, none
other than Bill Haley's Comets played on the rocking
track! But that's not all. McFadden's Mummy also put a
new spin on "Shake, Rattle, and Roll" and "Hound Dog,"
while McKuen's original song "The Beat Generation"
would inspire Richard Hell's "Blank Generation." Other
satiric targets on this frightfully fun LP include exotica
("Noisy Village"), surf music ("Bingo," a riff on "Tequila" with
McFadden as the bingo caller), and celebrity culture ("The Beverly Hills Telephone Directory
Cha-Cha-Cha"). The original 1959 Brunswick album artwork has been meticulously recreated
for this new reissue, and an insert features new liner notes by The Second Disc's Joe
Marchese. It's all been remastered by Mike Milchner at SonicVision and pressed on clear with
orange pumpkin swirl vinyl limited to 750 copies. To miss Songs Our Mummy Taught Us would
be, well, a grave mistake!
