Monster Mash" is a 1962 novelty song and the best-known song by Bobby "Boris" Pickett. The song was released as a single on Gary S. Paxton's Garpax Records label in August 1962 along with a full-length LP called The Original Monster Mash, which contained several other monster-themed tunes. The "Monster Mash" single reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on October 20 of that year, just in time for Halloween. It has been a perennial holiday favorite ever since.
It is a great song. Anyway, for those who were Oakland A's fans in 1988, the A's Marketing team did a spoof of this song dubbed "Monster Bash". It was named after the Bash Brothers, McGwire and Canseco, as they exchanged forearm bashes after an A's home run.
