I love that video and song, the one with Louis Armstrong in it. Can't remember the name of the song, but I always found it creepy... maybe because it was so old.

I have some old Halloween songs by him. Might be SKELETON IN THE CLOSET?

Grim said...

That might be it. I'm going to have to try to find that video. I know there is a short clip of it on "The Haunted History of Halloween" that came on the History Channel, which was a pretty good show.

Grim, you have NO IDEA how great this is. I've never seen him perform this song yet I've played it a hundred times.


Going to finish watching it now.

Thanks, man!
