“Sapo Astronauta” Reginaldo Bessa / Esther Glanzer (1969) Brazil I know this is a children’s record but not much more. Perhaps one of our friends in Brazil can shed some light on the music inside.

Esquivel and his Orchestra “Strings Aflame” (1958) Vik Alternate Cover from Argentina. Here’s the original RCA Victor cover:

Despite the “strings” in the title, this one actually swings quite well, and has a bit of an exotic gypsy flavor to it, augmented by cool spacey production that makes the strings hum with a strange other-worldly tonality. The set’s filled with the usual crazy Esquivel arrangements, and includes the cuts “Turkish March”, “Andalusian Sky”, “Misirlou”, and “Gypsy Lament”. (Dusty Groove)

Shrimpenstein was on KHJ channel 9 in LA from 1966 to 1968. This is the opening theme sung by Dr. Von Schtick (Gene Moss in a bad Boris Karloff imitation and the Tijuana Bats.
The hosts were Gene Moss (Dr. Von Schtick) and Jim Thurman (voices). Shrimpenstein was a miniature Frankenstein monster (a ventriloquist dummy who was “created” when jellybeans were thrown into the Monster Machine) Moss and Thurman wrote the Roger Ramjet cartoons and did advertising campaigns, mostly for radio. Moss later did voice-overs for LA’s channel 2 news and Disney/Touchstone pictures previews. Thurman also wrote and did voices for Sesame Street.
