Actually it is found on the album "Dr Demento's
Dementia Royale."
I know it's been played lately on Dr D, but I can't
get Jeff Morris' search engine to work for me right
now.

album "Dr. Demento's Delights" It is out of print, so your best
bet is a local used record store, or one of any number of
used record websites.

I have a spare copy of "Dr. Demento's Delights" (1975 the first compilation, out
of print) VG- $5 + $4 for the stamps and the box and stuff.
Also Jef Jaisun occasionally sells the original Narco Agent EP's on E-bay or
some such. Also you might want his album "Brand New Rose" which is more
mainstream, not much comedy. I critiqued it here:
http://www.houg.com/critiques/JefJaisun.html Or you could go directly to his
Friendly Neighborhood Narco Agent FAQ at http://www.eljefe.net/fnnafaq.html
or e-mail him at mailto:elj...@eljefe.net He's still quite alive and user
friendly :)

Thank you all for your kind assistance. I will be getting the album
from Eric.
I'm glad I remembered the Rhino title correctly; I believe I read on
Jef's website that it hadn't been on any Rhino compilations.
I wrote him- I hope he replies. All indications point to him being a
friendly guy.
Take care,
Rob Killam

Hey Ken,
You're welcome.
To be nitpicky, Jef is correct. Dr. Demento's Delights was put
out by Warner Bros. in 1975. FNNA has never been on a Rhino
compilation. Of course since Time-Warner bought Rhino several
years ago (after 1975), the distinction is moot.
Dementedly yours,
Rob

Others have answered your questions. Curious--what are the other four?

Hi, Mary:
They are, in no particular order:
"Stealin'" by Eddie Dean (on 45 RPM as opposed to broken 78)
"Toast" by ... oh geez, I can't remember... it's a novelty record from
the early '80s... anybody here know?
"Good Rockin' Tonight" by Wynonie Harris (to replace broken 78)
"Guess I'm Dumb" by Glen Campbell (a Brian Wilson production)
Special Mention goes to:
"I've Got The Sun In The Morning" by Les Brown & His Band Of Renown
(vocalist Doris Day)- a remastered copy of the same take that is on my
78; the version on the LB CD is a different (not quite as good) take.
There are definitely more, but as you get over 11,000 records, the want
list grows shorter and shorter (thankfully!).
Regards,
Al Kossow
