I hate to burst everybody's bubble....but the original Spooky was an instramental. and the best Spooky of them all. Mike Sharp made it and it was such a great song that Dennis Yost wrote the words to the tune and had a hit also.I knew Dennis Yost.... we discussed this and he agreed with everything tnat i just wrote in the comments box.....as a matter of fact if you go to Dennis Yost tribute the one with the guy with the brown coat on....that is me playing the saxophone....

@faqu100 Right On, man. I appreciate the info. I believe you...that the original Spooky was an instrumental, much like Grazing in the Grass was before Friends of Distinction recorded it. Just to clarify...the reason I put "original studio version" in the title is because most, if not all the other versions posted on YouTube aren't the version of Spooky I used to hear on the radio, this one is. Thanks again for listening and the comment...Peace

This is the original studio version but your missing the left or right stereo track. I cannot hear the organ an who knows what else!

[deejayroyalt1]

@Idelia412 Thats interesting. I have excellent stereo sound from this recording and don't notice anything missing...and nobody has ever left a comment about that before?

I like ARS's version much better

This reminds me of a certain lady.......

I like to dance naked in the light of the moon to this song. It usually ends up with the neighbors calling the cops though. :(

@faqu100 Wait a minute, I played the glockenspiel on this great song! Unfairly,

the studio took me out of the mix, then, although I was wearing a distictive yellow

jacket, I never appeared in any photos. Just kidding, the sax playing on C4 was

great!!!

love 2 hear Sade cover this!

[CornishCockney]

@deejayroyalt1 nothing wrong with the sound,it has good separation and no drop out.the problem is with his eqpt i think.top tune by the way,and love atlanta's version too

[Flex52able]

Yeah, What-ever as my daughter used to say a few years ago. Lol. Great song anyway.

[rpm88able]

I wore out my 45.

@faqu100 The "whys & Wherefores" don't matter. What matters is, this is a classic song, I would guess the most loved version. I know Atlanta Rhythm Section did this song and it was good but this one is better.

Where did you get the picture of the lady in front of the Moon? I want to use it for my desktop picture. Can you give me the link?
