 Does anyone know who did the song, "Calling all Girls"? If so, could
one enlighten me?

 Also, could some kind soul post the lyrics?

 I was listening to this song on the radio and I wish I paid more attention
to it.

Thanks to this newsgroup and to Jack Kent, Yesterday USA listener in Milwaukee,
I have recently become a fan of Da Yoopers.

Actually, while going through comedy CD's in a local record store, I ran across
the CD 'yoopy do wah' and recognizing the group 'Da Yoopers' from the above
sources, I bought it. Since then I have obtained their other four albums and
am starting to play them on my own satellite radio show.

The CD is 'yoopy do wah' by Da Yoopers. It is #71168 on You Guys Records and
a record store could probably order it for you.

The cassette albums are 'Yoopanese', 'Camp Fever', 'Culture Shock' and 'Yoop
It Up'. They are available directly from You Guys Records (as is 'yoopy do wah')
at:

They will also send you a flyer of other odds & ends they sell, including a

This news comes (almost) directly from THE DOCTOR HIMSELF:

----------------------------------------------------------

The syndication issues are a done deal, and the radio 
stations have already been notified that the Doctor 
is still "in."  With that issue settled, the new issue
is support from the fans.

There are 4 major cities that are still on the edge.
Their stations may or may not continue playing the show.  
The cities are Miami, Detroit (Ann Arbor), Cleveland,
and Albany.

If there are fans from those four cities who participate in 
the newsgroup, and who want to continue hearing the shows, 
it's time for them to write directly to the stations.

(Please note this is my first post to Usenet, so anything that screws up

Dementites and Dementoids, I am very happy that I have stumbled onto
this newsgroup.  I have not heard a Dr. Demento show in literally two or
three years, and I'm almost sane.  I've been keeping myself at a
tolerable abnormality level with the hours upon hours of taped shows I
have, but I don't know how long I can take it.  I NEED NEW MATERIAL.

I once lived in a town called Boise, Idaho.  It was here I found the Dr.
Demento show, and it was here I sacrificed my Mondays to listen to it
(it started midnight Monday morning).  I started taping the shows (for
convenience and record keeping), building a small library.

And then it happened.

The station went down only to be replaced by a country music station.  I
don't know what happened; it was a popular station.

Well, I went without for a while.  And then I moved here, to Redmond,
Washington.  And here, there is NO Dr. Demento.

Imagine my grief.

I request specific instructions on what to do to bring the magic and
wisdom of Dr. D to this area.  Who do I contact at a chosen radio
station?  What should I tell them?  Is there an address or phone number
I should give them?  What else do I need to do?  

Please.  Help me......

BVDoodles was a truly fun man.   However, his brother Pat Weaver,
   was the former head of NBC, and was reputed to be even funnier
   than Doodles.   Pat is Sigourney Weaver's father, and Doodles
   is her uncle.

Does anyone remember a series of live-action shorts called "A Day With
Doodles?"  They were shown amidst the cartoons when I was a kid in the
60's.  They were narrated by a guy with a goofy voice, while Doodles
never spoke.  It was basic slapstick, probably all stolen from Laurel &
Hardy, but I didn't know it then.

PMS stands for pre-menstrual syndrome.  many women suffer from 
uncontrollable emotions, irritability, and physical discomfort 
in the week preceeding their period.  it has become somewhat of
a joke that they can become absolutley ridiculous at this time,
hence the behaivior of the women in "PMS Airlines" and also why
it is unusually funny that the male at the end of the skit displays
the same symptoms.

(by the way, girls, to eliviate PMS and menstrual cramps emensly,
as well as shorten the length and ease the flow of your period,
adopt a low-low-low fat diet, preferably vegan! works!)

The album was "Have a Marijuana".  I beleive it might have been
Elektra.   That album was not in wide public distribution as the major
retailers, Sears, MW, et al, pulled the album.

There was a 3rd album or it may have been the 4th, that was never
released.   

The quote from Tony Martell, at Paramout (Gulf+Western) was "That
record will NEVER be released as long as I am head of this company".
(not an exact quote but close enough).

Now how do >I< know about this.   Well I engineered this session. Real
low budget in our second studio, before our third studio which was
world class.    Our first was 'block class' - the best on the block!

Next was 'the best in this end of town', and the final was definately
world class.

But back to David Peel.   The production was arranged by a local
manager of a cotemporary rock station, who was also 'producing' the
album.

It made the first album seem mild by comparison.   One of the tracks
was about the then President Nixon and his advisor Bebe Rebozo.   There
were allusions to stragne goings on in his boat in Biscayne Bay.

Probably best for all parties concerned that it was never released.

That would be David Peel and The Lower East Side. The record was 
recorded in the early-1970s (1971?). If memory serves me correctly 
they also put out another l.p called I Like Marijuana (or that could 
have been a song on the same l.p.). Sort of folk punk stuff, while

Just a few corrections...

It's da second week of deer camp, and all da guys are here;
We drink, play cards, and shoot da bull, but never shoot no deer!
The only time we leave da camp is when we go for beer,
Da second week of deer camp is da greatest time of year!

I don't recall which album that's on, but a few album titles
are:
	Yoopanese
	Yoop it up!
	Camp Fever
Thre's also a CD out, which I just saw in Camelot music
yesterday (in Laurel, MD!), which I don't recall the title to.
The group is based in Ishpeming, MI, I believe. (Or is it
National Mine?)

Other great songs include Fishin' Wit Fred, Beer Guts of
America, and A Happy Dog Named Zippo
