Wooly Bully

[horn blaring] Five to four the final score, as the Delta Center rejoices in relief.

"Wooly Bully" Oh, yeah.

Stand by.

Two Hawks for two points coming up after a 5-4 win over Toronto.

Welcome on in, folks.

Thanks for tuning in to the post-game edition of Hockey Night in Utah.

As we get things started with our victory anthem, "Wooly Bully," here as Utah improves to 5-2, 2-0 at home.

They've scored 11 goals in two home games this year.

This stuff could be found in another song.

And maybe that's why the other version that's in this box kind of went like woolly bully.

Yeah.

You know, it's kind of the woolly bully rhythm.

It sounded the sham and the pharaohs.

I have no idea how long I played the song in that rendition.

[laughs]

I, I took this note that, um, that it cuts from Wooly Bully for no reason to Rob Zombie.

[laughs]

And then, and then later, um, LL Cool J says, "Just smile and take the money," and immediately cuts to I Am Hated by Slipknot, which the subtitle said.

The, the lyric and most of the narrative was there.

But before we were putting this box together, a friend of mine wrote to me after a long time of not being in touch and said, "I found a tape that you recorded at my house in 1976." And, and I must have just been playing through my new songs, and there's a version of The Angels Wanna Wear My Red Shoes, and the rhythm of it is like, um, Wooly Bully-

Mm

... by, uh, Sam the Sham & The Pharaohs.

The episode was too short because of the writer's strike.

At the end, all the writers are in the background and Curtis is singing Wooly Bully.

I don't know if you were there for that.

That's

Um, so, uh, for the period music, they reviewed Billboard's list of top 100 hits for each year from '62 through '68, considering many songs that he found that, quote, "Sometimes our dynamic range of the music was too great and we couldn't work in dialogue." So, you know, some songs where they wanted you to dialogue with the song in the background, but the song was too good, where do you cut it to talk, you know? Um, and there is a one, uh, s- uh, musical, or, uh, part at the end that's not on the list, but here we go.

It's, uh, Johnny Wright with Hello Vietnam; Dixie Cups, Chapel of Love; Sam the Sham & The Pharaohs, Wooly Bully; Chris Kenner, I Like It Like That; Nancy Sinatra, These Boots Are Made for Walkin'; The Trashmen, Surfin' Bird; Goldman Band, Marines Hymn; and The Rolling Stones, Paint It Black.

Um, again, all very good songs right there, and all very short songs.

It's not a very long soundtrack right there.

There was... a 60s garage vibe to it.

You know, some of the stuff like Louie Louie and Woolly Bully.

I could hear in some of the Inspirals songs, even before I joined, I could hear that sort of simplicity.

Almost bubblegum at times.
