Does anyone remember a group called Mammatapee? I have an old demo 45
with a song called "Monster Fun" on it (stereo on one side, mono on the
other). I won it at a school fair when I was 10; I guess that was a few
months after the song came out. Was this song (or any other Mammatapee
song) a hit? How high did they chart?
I can't find any information about Mammatapee on the Web, except for a few
sites that have their albums for sale. There isn't an entry in the
Allmusic guide.
Here's what I got from the label on my 45:
"Monster Fun" by Mamatappee
Whitfield Records, item WHI49607 (YCA 9673 VI S)
Written by Mark Kenoly
Produced by Norman Whitfield and Mark Kenoly
From the Whitfield Album WHK 3510 "On The 1"

one was a list of used albums for sale;
the second was a brief history of funk (albeit in Italian) which mentioned
Mammatapee in the context of Norman Whitfield;
the third was a D.J.'s list of records;
and the fourth was a list of band photos for sale.
