1956 novelty song by Nervous Norvus

I know most of you have probably heard this song, but I just found it and I thought it would fit in here. I guess it was a hit in 1956 by a L.A. truck driver named Jimmy Drake. He had other songs, but this one is pretty funny... about a guy that gets in accidents and needs blood transfusions every time! Enjoy... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVewdwuyyw8

 

"Transfusion" is a great old tune..I have the original 45 record-- Make that type O Daddy-O...

 

Novelty record? That's a true story....

 

Thanks, I needed that. I just came back from having a blood test, talk about irony! I never realized that song was that old.-MIKE

 

Ive got it on a doctor Demento LP......great song,"get outa my way I dont pass with my horn".................

 

My little brother's name is Allen, every now and then I tell him "slip a gallon to me, Allen" and he has no idea what I'm talking about.

 

"Pass the juice, Bruce"

 

I love that song...Its also on Hot Rod Artist Robert Williams compilation album Chrome, Smoke & Fire from 1991...A great double album if you can find it

Holy Crap, Cosmo, you just made my day. I haven't heard that song or Nervous Norvus in sooooooooooooooo many years. Thank you...

 

Love it! First heard that on Doctor D. many years ago.

 

My foot's on the throttle and it's made of lead
But I'm a fast ridding daddy with a real cool head
I'ma gonna pass a truck on the hill ahead-
[Scrreeech-BANG, tinkle]
Transfusion, transfusion
My red corpsuckles are in mass confusion
Never, never, never gonna speed again
Pass the crimson to me, Jimson

 

I love Novelty records. Here is one they banned but I can't remember why, it's pretty stupid. There used to be alot of these back in the 50's

HA! I've got that set too, and can't listen to it 'cause I don't have a record player any more! Have 'em framed and hanging on the wall in the garage, pretty, but I'd like to be able to play vinyl. That song I had as kid on a '45, it may still be in my folks basement. The flip side was another wierdo song called "The Fang".

For those of you in So Cal, Friday July 10th, The Sound FM100.3 is doing a tribute to KMET "the Mighty Met" and Dr. Demento wil do a one hour show from 7-8:00 pm

 

IF you buy a NEW turntable,get a Technics SL1200 Mk2. Pricey but worth it.

I've got an early '60s Silvertone stereo record player at the house. Send me all your obsolete records, I'll let you know if they're any good!

 

don't forget about beep beep, they have it named wong on the video, but it's there http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4W7oZBhAJg&feature=related

 

since we are on goofy songs, can't forget the Tennessee bird walk, The video they made is cool,it was made by little kids at Arts umbrella up in Canada, little kids who work hard to make videos are always cool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yR0NJYbEhI&feature=related

I've got it on a 78!

 

Man I was a KMET addict and supporter all the way. Shado Stevens and Eddie Rabbit as DJ's plus Dr, Demento and then that wierd shit they would play on sunday/monday morning at around 3:00 am. Wished I was there to record it.

OMG - yeah! that old song's been around forever - wait - I remember listening to it as a kid! '56? Damn, I'm gettin' old! there were sure some great car & novelty songs back in those days. One of my favorites is Jan & Dean's "Schlock Rod" about a piss green Buick... And another one I like is "Vacation" by Connie Francis, "....well we'll hop in our jalopy to a drive-in movie, and never look at the show...." Those old songs were - and are - part of the real Happy Days.

here's a couple of ray stevens songs that were banned off of the radio where I grew up, compared to whats on now they are nothing,but some people had nothing better to do. I've always heard rumors that the Mississippi Squirrel revival was based on a true story,hmmm

the second one the streak,ray at his best of all time, best video he ever did. I remember as a kid,there was a big outcry about this song in church,and how terrible it was, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIPv9AtZ2zE&feature=related

and it's me again margaret, also banned from the radio when i was a kid,
