Several years ago one of the local Los Angeles FM stations, forget which one,
ran a Christmas special of novelty songs. I caught it on tape but, of course,
can't find it now. Included was the Seymour Swine version of 'Blue Christmas',
which was the parody of Elvis's Blue Christmas; but in the same broadcast was
another Elvis parody where Elvis keeps singing "Jelly Doughnuts" in the
background. Cannot remember the song itself or the artist, just that refrain,
sung in Elvis's trademark stuttering style.
Anybody have a clue which song this might be? May not have been commercially
released but a homegrown parody from one of the popular DJ duos who broadcast
here in L.A. May be Kevin and Bean of KROQ, I know it wasn't Rick Dees (KIIS-FM
102.7) or Mark and Brian (KLOS FM 95.5).

Actually... it sounds like you are indeed thinking of "He Ate Too Many
Jelly Donuts" by, yes, Rick Dees & His Cast Of Idiots. Circa 1977.

Yeah, and it was on the Disco Duck album, LP, never CD. Strange how few of those
albums I have seen considering "Disco Duck" was #1 on the pop charts. Also "He Ate
Too Many Jelly Donuts" was on a 45 RPM single.
I stand corrected. Many thanks for your ID. Krispy Kreme, eat your heart out.
