Herb Alpert and the...?
I am a strange bird sometimes. A few weeks back I was listening to Herb Alpert's "Rise" from his "Definitive Hits" CD (but here is the YT link) and I got this silly inspiration to have him drawn raising the dead with his music. Yeah. So I handed it off to ATOM and now here it is. Bloody well done, ATOM, old chap! Yeah, like I said, sometimes I am strange, but it did inspire me on another blog entry I will be making soon.
Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Bones?
ReplyDeleteNot bad!
ReplyDeleteThough how about: H. A. and the Tartarus Bunch (or, ays, 'Bones')?
Anyone else reminded of Dead Man Stomp, which is one of the included adventures in recent editions of Call of Cthulhu?
ReplyDeleteIt too features a horn with similar animative properties. A Trumpet of Animate Dead is a pretty damn cool magic item; in fact, I think I know just where one will fit in my work-in-progress...

I love Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass.
ReplyDeleteAs a quick break from work I popped over here. The funny thing is we in the bookstore are listening to the Whipped Cream & Other Delights album as I'm typing this!
