The ghoulish grooves of Frankie Stein And His Ghouls rise again with the first reissue of Monster Melodies since its original 1965 debut. Blending mischievous rock and infectious pop, this album conjures up a madcap dance party, inspired by everything from surf and twist to the Frug, all led by the enigmatic maestro Frankie Stein himself. Surprising nods to The Beatles and a playful parade of dance crazes make for a frightfully fun listen.
This release of Monster Melodies captures the full-spook spectacle of its original era, complete with high-spirited covers and tongue-in-cheek tribute tracks that showcase the band’s unique take on popular hits. Issued by Real Gone Music, this edition is a treat for any fan of novelty rock or vintage pop, offering a melodic time capsule from the mausoleum of music history.
