Bob and Rod McKuen

Dracula cha cha

Fun Halloween Rankin/Bass Productions fact: My late friend Bob McFadden was the voice of the Baron in the ABC Saturday superstar movie Rankin/Bass' Mad, Mad, Mad Monsters (1972). Bob was also the voice of Frankenberry and Milton the Monster (he recorded voice mail messages for me as both). He also recorded a novelty record of The Mummy with poet Rod McKuen (as dor) which featured an image of The Hammer Mummy on the sleeve and another single with called Dracula cha-cha, The Brides of Dracula on the sleeve 🎃 #rankinbassproductions #bobmcfadden #rodmckuen #HALLOWEEN

My friend, the late great Bob McFadden gave me this picture of him in the studio with DOR (Rod McKuen) recording one of their novelty records. Bob did many great cartoon voices for RANKIN/BASS and other studios! He also did voice mail recordings for me as COOL McCOOL, JINGLE BELLS (From THE YEAR WITHOUT A SANTA CLAUS), BORIS KARLOFF (From MAD, MAD, MAD, MONSTERS), MILTON THE MONSTER and FRANKENBERRY!
