Halloween Hits: “The Martian Hop” The Ran-Dells (1963)



The Ran-Dells were a doo-wop group from New Jersey. They scored a #27 hit in 1963 with this song. But they would be a one hit wonder, as their further singles didn't chart.....

Halloweeen Hits: "X-Ray Vision" Moon Martin (1982)

Here's a lost early MTV classic....... 


Indeed upon his release from the aliens, John Denver was never the same again.........
Moon Martin was a journeyman songwriter and scored some hits for others, namely "Bad Case of Loving You" for Robert Palmer in 1979. "Rolene" from his 1979 album Escape From Domination. was his biggest solo hit.

Halloween Hits: "Alien" Atlanta Rhythm Section (1981)


OK, I'm not sure if anything else beyond the title of this song qualifies it for a Halloween playlist.


This song went to #29 on the Top 40 charts in 1981......

But you had to admire ARS's sense of compassion towards aliens. Especially after we've already seen this.......
