The Troggs

Oh, so I'm going to crack into this, guys.

You ever have this? It's a Troggs Master of Pumpkins.

Otto, you're into pumpkin beers, right? Yeah, we'll see.

Yes, I am.

I mean, obviously that's in a lot of songs from that time period, but I wasn't really sure if, yeah, okay.

If there was a specific like, oh, now we're playing the troggs part.

Okay.

I don't think we would necessarily use those exact words, but it was, we knew a lot about the troggs.

Still do.

So you have that sustained thing and you have an actual whole line of lyrics.

And then it would be like, you know, you'd be coming to the end.

You know, that was a Troggs Wild thing.

Coming up next, it's the Bonanatelli Hour.

And it would be all Italian.

Now tracks four, five, and six.

Track four, The Troggs, Reg Presley on vocals, The Night of the Long Grass from '67.

Six weeks on the UK chart.

Didn't actually get too much airplay on, uh, regular radio.

Interesting thing about this, uh, the backing vocals were by Anita Pallenberg, who was the muse of The Rolling Stones, first Brian Jones, and then Keith Richards, and Marianne Faithfull.

And track six, Jerry Samuels, better known as Napoleon XIV, They're Coming to Take Me Away.

And, uh, here we go with The Troggs.

[singing] I walk alone in dreams.

...

the, uh, the, the Wild Things song, like, play in, in, in transitions as to the next...

That all kinda worked for me.

Like, despite, like, the, the actual science of it, I liked it quite a bit.
