Rodney on the WOQ/Barris Put In His Place

Thanks, and a tip o' the tall white Goof hat to Bedazzled! for pointing me to Mark London's HEAVYPAPERZ weblog, where Mark reports that the so-called "Mayor of Sunset Strip," Rodney Bingenheimer, was awarded his very own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame last week. I wonder what Rod's rival claimant to the Strip's mayoral office, Kim Fowley, thinks of that?

This week, it's Kustom Kar King, George Barris, creator of the Batmobile, Munster Coach, and the ZZR Surfmobile shown above, who's being honored by having a Los Angeles street named after him.

Tony's Hot Nuts Redux

Click for NSFW version

I don't like to work blue here on the Goof, but I have a nostalgic fondness for cheesy, innuendo-loaded, nudie novelty LPs from the 60's, and they don't come much cheesier, nudier, or innuendo-ier than My Pussy Belongs to Daddy, a record chockful o' songs with eye-rolling double-entendre titles like, Things Are Soft For Grandma, Tony's Hot Nuts, and She Sits Among the Cabbages and Peas. Despite the ridiculous titles, the songs are actually pretty decent; most are done in a smoky nightclub jazz style, and sung by naughty-record vet, Fay Richmonde (among others).

Tikiwahine, posted a smallish photo of the LP cover and an MP3 sharity of the songs last year on Tiki Central (link NSFW), however, the RapidShare link expired quite a while ago. She recently uploaded the individual songs to FileFactory, but since I've got plenty of unused bandwidth, I volunteered to give the sharity a more permanent home, and created a 41MB .ZIP file for your downloading pleasure. I'll leave it up unless it gets so popular that I have to start paying Dreamhost for the extra bandwidth. Tikiwahine has also promised to send me a larger photo of the LP front and back cover, so I can make a CD jewelbox insert. I'll update the post when I've completed it.

Enjoy, but don't let Mom and Dad catch you listening to this filthy smut!

Update: Wow, when I posted this, I knew it'd be popular, but I didn't think it'd generate as much traffic as it has. Many thanks to PCL, Unknown Highway, and UniqueDaily for all the hits! Also thanks to Helvecetier who posted this beautiful scan of the LP cover [Link], perfectly sized for a CD insert.
