#Rocktoberween 2025 wraps up with a new-to-me song that offers hope of ongoing Halloween spirit. Or something.
Good night, sweet dreams, #at40 friends & fiends!

#Rocktoberween, day 31, continues ... but down to the last two. Here's one more from Alice.

#Rocktoberween, day 31, continues ... I still got a little bit left in the tank, but I'm starting to wind down. But not without a little more Alice.

#Rocktoberween, day 31, continues ... Any Rocktoberween, but this one especially, would be incomplete without a tribute to the departed Prince of Darkness.

#Rocktoberween, day 31, continues ... We heard from folkie Donovan earlier in the month. Today we circle back to this rocker's cover.

By #Rocktoberween follower suggestion! I think I see the origins of Alice Cooper's look here.
Happy #Rocktoberween! Day 31 continues with one that's new to me, but fits the mold. I've avoided some of the cliche songs, but this one might be better than Monster Mash anyway!

SPOOKY: I'm putting this in the Spooky category. Ooh That Smell. The smell of death surrounds you. What's even spookier was this album being released just days before the plane crash that took the lives of band and crew members youtu.be/nG0GjjakjaU?... #70sMusic #Rocktoberween #MusicSky #NowPlaying
SPOOKY: This one might be about planets and space, but I still find it spooky. Black Sabbath. youtu.be/SvrOzYtnLMA?... #70sMusic #AT40 #70sLP #Ozzy #Halloweenie #Rocktoberween #MusicSky #NowPlaying

I want to give a witchβs H/T to our

Getting you ready for Spooky Season. I went to Cedar Point's "Fright Night" several years ago, and as we exited, Tubular Bells was playing through heavy fog. The song and the soundtrack is from 1974. youtu.be/FN6jIvKiYOs?... #70sMusic #AT40 #Rocktoberween #Spooky #Halloween #MusicSky #NowPlaying
Happy #Rocktoberween, day 24. By follower suggestion ... I was on the fence: innocuous fun or offensive stereotype? #at40 friends & fiends

#Rocktoberween you say. One of my childhood records, from 1959. Bubi and Bob. I'm a Mummy. youtu.be/zldkgaqrt-M?... #AT40 #Halloween #Weird #50sMusic
Happy #Rocktoberween, day 23. It's not Spooky Season without Warren Zevon -- but there's that one ubiquitous song ... and then there's this one.

Happy #Rocktoberween, day 22. I had trouble choosing a Black Sabbath song, but landed on this one after reading a Wikipedia entry in which bassist Geezer Butler was quoted saying that "War Pigs" was originally intended to be called "Walpurgis": 1/3
