I have ALL of Tom Leher's albums. My favorite tune, which I could actually sing at one time, is:

More Dr. Demento fare: I Love Onions by Susie Christy; Friendly Neighborhood Narco agent by Jef Jaisum; Ape Call and Transfusion by Nervous Norvus.....Mairzy Doats by the Merry Macs; Phantom Windbreaker by "Red Bovine"("He ate our beans 'till he busted his jeans...")...Mr Slater's Parrot by the Bonzo Dog Band...
Speaking of Norman Greenbaum, did you know he wrote "The Eggplant Than Ate Chicago", recorded by Dr. West's Medicine Show?

OOWOLF-

Windbreaker was done by Red Sovine- the godfather of trucker music. He made a few more hits with Phantom 309 and Giddy up Go Daddy.
