"Transfusion"- NERVOUS NORVUS

[DestroyAllorNothing]

love it hate most greese ball crap but this hits it hard, love it..

[IVatworky]

If you dislike this song

you are a slowpoking cat and i am going to pass you on the right!

[IVatworky]

you would think this song is playing on everyones car radio 24/7 when you drive around today.

My road rage aggrevates my turrets.

I say things when I'm alone in my car that I would never say anywhere else.

Try to stay calm, bros.

[trianglecafe]

I first heard Transfusion in the mid 50s @ my dad's billiard parlor/cafe in Chico, CA & I am so glad that it (& Ape Call) are still around for us old farts.

[Davegobble82]

Pussy pussy come on in pussy lovers

[michaelmuller]

Wow. Memories of Dr. Demento decades ago. Thanks for posting!

[silowhore]

thumbs up if Coupe De Ville bought you here :D

[1960rjf]

remember this from Kenny Everett's Worlds Worst Wireless Show ... was talking about it yesterday, unfortunately one of my mates had a bike accident, he's ok but sharing this with him!

[Natash3]

My mom has this 45....awesome....

[mavido79]

One of my all time favorite songs I learned from listening to Dr. Demento. thanks so much for sharing this with us.

[TheBiggen31]

first heard this 25 years ago and still like it

[woodythemug]

Great lyrics ,its been bugging me for some time.!!! THANKS M8

[pyroglasstic]

Shoot the juice to me Bruce!

[rokarolla]

I just heard this on Car Talk. Reminded me of the side splitting laughter that almost killed me hearing it on the Dr. Demento radio show some time ago. I love your phono. People are surprised how good 78's sound, but in terms of space for detailed information, you've got more space. A 78 record ought to be like running a VHS tape machine at it's highest speed, the best possible quality. I heard on NPR that the Smithsonian Museum put modern recordings onto 78 rpm records (like Eminmem). Wow!

[Huggy1959]

Shane - is that a good machine to play that record on? I would think that record would be too soft. What kind of needle? I just didn't think you could play a record that recent on a machine that old. Sounds great!

[gramophoneshane]

@Huggy1959 It's an Australian pressing so it's not too bad. Most of our 78s from the 50s contained as much abrasive as they did in the 20s, so they handle an acoustic machine and steel needle pretty well. I've got 3 or 4 copies of this one anyway, so I use the worst one on the HMV 202.

[schnellguy]

What ever happened to nervous novus?

[dreamkill1970]

I was born in 1970 but I'm the youngest of 7 and I was about 5 or 6 years old when i first herd this song and today at work it came to the radio that plays in my head so I just had to look it up.Thanks for posting it and thank also for the vinyl,boy does that bring back some very young childhood days is this the same guy that does they're coming to take me away Ha Haaa and the Little Nash Rambler. Oh wait I can look that up.have fun you all

[MrMathesonk]

Want more? Norton Records released this and every other one of Nervous Norvus' "hits" on "Stone Age Woo". Well worth the time to check it out if you're a fan of Nervous Norvus.

[rcdowling]

My Dad had this 45. I used to play all his old records over and over. I haven't played those record since the late 70's early 80's but for some reason on the way to work this morning I thought of this song. Great to hear it again.

[dar4869]

LOL..when this came out..I played it over and over and over..at an older friends..house..!! Yes..she stil talks to me..she was my babysitter..gosh what year was it? '56-58?

[phonyx11]

the reverse is also cool....DIG

[rangermatthias]

A rollin' down the mountain on a rainy day.

Oh, when ya see me coming you better start to pray.

I'ma cuttin' up the road and I'm the boss all the way!

[poughkeepsiejohn1]

I'm a real-gone paleface and that's no illusion! LOL!

[blackmountainboar]

an anthem for the many incurable leadfoots such as myself

[TheGordonfan]

One of the best!! Your awsome for posting this!! Fav. all time!

[if66was99]

OMFG!!! My mom had a 45 of this exact song. I can still sing along with it, 40 years on. Thanks for posting this! :)

[DiaBlomgren]

My red corpsuckles are in mass confusion!

[nowhearthis2]

Coagulation, coagulation, lord a-mighty what's happenin' to the nation? I'm never never never gonna speed again... shoot the juicy to me, Lucy.

[mntnbees]

[VTMCompany]

no wonder people died in droves in their 50s cars...head ons all over the roads...

[weinerbongo]

does anyone know the chords to this?

[weinerbongo]

never mind. i found them. incredibly easy.

F-F7-Bb-C

[hahahahaha23]

FUCK REAGAN

[SpokenVerse]

Ronald Reagan managed to fit so many careers into one lifetime. You have to admire his versatility.

[Clint2165]

OMG how ironic! we used to have this Spitting Image puppet of Ronald Reagan and we'd get stoned and make Ronnie sing this song! good times good times......

[rrhayah]

:3 Dr. Demento was where I first heard this, and I still love it.

[Pixalprattle]

Slip the blood to me Bud

Slip the juice to me Bruce

Pour the crimson in me Jimson

Slip a gallon to me Allan

Great lines hehe.

[darush012]

what an interestin song, not sure where I heard it first but my dad used to have a cassette he made with this and a bunch of other odd songs brings back memories

[zeromanz12]

TERRIBLE SONG

[deedlepoo]

This is just totally Far Out. As Far Out, Man, as you can get

[hstasam]

GREAT!! I been looking for this. No one knows who nervous norvis is but I listened to him on AM radio and thought it was great. Still do. Great fidelity - er considering.

[Huwmongous]

Nervous Norvus = Jimmy Drake (1918-1968)

[TimelordR]

Pop the fluid in me, Louie!!!

[NCTaikoDrumboy]

@Huwmongous Okay, you've got his birth year and death year. Do you know anything else about him?

[bbrannddX]

@NCTaikoDrumboy I heard he died in a car crash. ( | ; < ()

[CharlesRados]

Wow, I didn't know anyone was watching me on the highway. When they "say learn defensive driving" they really mean it.  But I'm not scared, Because "I'm the other guy" Everyone is watching out for me. I love this song, Thanks for posting it.

[oysterjoe]

This is an alternate cut. Almost sane compared to the 45 original. Nervous lived in Oakland, Calif. Probably explains what he was so nervous about.

[pornguy2]

You obviously know nothing about Oakland in

the 50s. I lived in next door in Berkeley and was in Oakland all the time. I saw over 100 baseball games there (Oaks) and it was a model community. Things have changed a bit since than but don't judge yesterday, by what you see today!

[newjerseybt]

Never, never gonna speed again.....

I heard that one before.

[mrpete222]

Thanks--haven't heard that since 1956--in my buddy Dave's basemant.

[flynnscafedan]

I also have a 45 of this song. I still remember listening to it in my mothers '55 Ford

[nssteve1979]

Great Oldie,Thanks for the post!!

[LakeRatDan]

Barnyard drivers are found in two classes,

line crowding hogs and speeding jackasses

Love it!!!

[zpasquier2887]

I remember this song! It was on my parents Dr. Demento CD! I forgot it existed!

[stringkini]

First heard this at my grandparents place on the Pine Ridge Indian reservation, a 45 left there by an older cousin. Must have been in 57 when I was ten. Lots of other cool music there, mostly on one sided 78s. Way pre elvis, but cool as hell. (daddy-O)

[JohnnybobTexas]

Lester1Beck, I have a .45 of it too. My girl cousin, two years older, discarded it when I was about 15. That was in '57 or so.

My father loved it, unlike most of my music.

[0254133]

type "o" hehe!!

[musicmamma]

I first heard this song when I was 14 and checked this album out from the library. Story of my life!! Gonna pass him on the right.

[jasonlava]

The very song that got Dr. Demento his name.

[pinky59guzzler]

Brings back a lot of memories. Thanks

[geert107]

thanks for posted this

i like it much 

regards

geert

[atomicapril]

Excellent SONG, Ive loved this song since I was a kid. yeah I was a weird kid lol.

[JaminRebel]

Love this song!!  : )

[psychoweird]

I have a suspicion (only a suspicion, mind...

have no concrete proof to establish my theory)

that ol' Nervous later opened a school of

driving, thereby enabling a steady stream

of business for Dr. McDreamy down at the E/R!
