Made in Houston, Tx.   1970!

From the back cover:   “This message discusses the uniqueness of the female nature, VD, abortion, and the subtle way in which the modern style of women’s clothing reduces precious womanhood to the status of cattle on the auction block.   Every single teen-age girl and young married woman should hear this message.”

“Nicky Cruz was running wild on a one-way street to the electric chair and hell!   Millions know him from The Cross and the Switchblade as well as his own book Run Baby Run.  Nicky Cruz shares his full life story on this special record. ”

Nice primitive painting of a multiple murder juxtaposed by the sunny, smiling face of former JD, born again Cruz.   Kids do the craziest things sometimes.

Most interesting about this is that this obscure kid’s sound effects record cover was adopted by the British ska band The Specials for the cover of their 7″ single, Ghost Town released in the UK on the Two Tone record label, catalogue number CHSTT17.

Side 1. Night in a haunted house Side 2. Witch laugh. Maniac at work. Screams. Screams and groans. Moans and groans….

This is the original on Soma Records out of Minneapolis (better known for garage band guitar hits like “Surfin Bird” by the Trashmen).   A Pickwick reissue with a cartoon illustration on the cover is common.
