I'm your podcast host, Jumpin' John. I am recording this podcast in October 2026. So it seems appropriate to me that this episode in our Novelty Songs series here on Rock and Roll Flashback should deal with one of the biggest Halloween rock songs ever: 1962's #1 hit "Monster Mash"! Here is the back story behind that popular hit.
