Playlist for Friday, October 27, 2006


This was Radio Rumpus Room's pretty much annual Halloween show!

SAVVY SHOW STARTER (always a local artist!)
Zip Caplan & A Cast Of Thousands -- Son Of Dracula
(Monsters And Heroes; Silver Bullet, www.zipcaplan.com)

Former Litter guitarist Zip Caplan and longtime friend Bernie Bomberg love '30s and '40s horror movie and serial soundtracks, and spent two and a half years arranging music from them for rock instruments, not orchestras. The result was "Monsters And Heroes," released on Caplan's Silver Bullet label in 2001. The all-instrumental album features Caplan on guitar, Bomberg on keyboards, and a selection of guest musicians from bands like the Ventures, Mason Proffit, the Yardbirds, and Badfinger.
