SSR1966 Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 In Cony Maul, there is a bit of calliope sounding music (like you might hear on a merry-go-round or at an old carnival) which is followed by the sound of a frog croaking. I believe this is from "Igor's Cellar" by The Detergents Actually the song you're thinking of is "Face Like A Frog" by Danny Elfman off of his Music For A Darkened Theater album. I am aware of the "Music For A Darkened Theater" CD but have never heard it. I'll have to check it out sometime soon, especially "Face Like A Frog." In the meantime, here is a You Tube video of the song of "Igor Cellar" that was recorded in 1966. Listen to the beginning of it and hear how similar it sounds to the music in Cony Maul. If the Elfman songs sounds like this also then I wonder if he credits The Detergents on the song in the liner notes? Or perhaps the music/frog combo is even older and both artist borrowed from the same original? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODQEhvq3CYo Sorry the video is boring, but it was all I could find that was easily accessible.
