Sometimes we may receive a Cramp that is enjoyable during Halloween time. Today is that day! Goo Goo Muck by The Cramps was released in 1981. But the origins of the original track are kind of murky. The original was recorded in 1962 by Ronnie Cook. The original was released on the Dore Record Label who was known for releasing novelty hits. By the time The Cramps grabbed hold of the track, they made it something special in it’s own.
The Cramps were known to put their own spin on often lost rock novelty classics. The lyrics describe a creepy monster lurking around the streets. Changing the lyrics to give off a more sinister meaning is what the band is an ace for. Brought back into the fold by Netflix’s Wednesday, The Cramps Goo Goo Muck shall make every one of your Halloween playlists till the end of time.
