Our Take

Artist: Bobby Boris Pickett
Album: Monster Mash

Bobby Boris Pickett's "Monster Mash" is a graveyard smash of an album that is sure to get the creatures of the night grooving. This ghoulishly delightful offering features the titular track, a Halloween classic that has been haunting the airwaves since its release in 1962. Pickett's distinctive voice, reminiscent of a werewolf howling at the moon, adds a quirky charm to this spooky tune.

The album is a graveyard-themed party that never lets up, with tracks like "Monster Motion" and "Scary Ghost Stories" keeping the momentum going. Pickett's clever lyrics and infectious melodies will have listeners tapping their toes and singing along, even if they're not already in the Halloween spirit.

While some may write off "Monster Mash" as kitschy or campy, there is a sincerity to Pickett's performance that cannot be denied. He fully commits to the theme of monsters and mayhem, making the album a delightful romp through a haunted house of music.

Overall, Bobby Boris Pickett's "Monster Mash" is a creature feature worth sinking your fangs into. So put on your best vampire cape, gather your friends (or fiends), and get ready to do the monster mash all night long. It's a graveyard smash that will have you howling at the moon in delight.
