Existential Blues - The Original
Ah, this is great. I remember having to conceal a radio under my pillow at night so I could listen the Dr. Demento Show, because it was on past my bed time. This was my favorite Dr. D song.
Sorry to geek out on you nicole, but the 'original' original had a recurring quote from 'Dream the Impossible Dream' that had to be edited out because of copyright issues.
The Death of an Icon - George Carlin 1937 - 2008 (Standup Talk Post)
He was the best. I remember first hearing Carlin's 'Icebox Man' on the Dr. Demento show at around age 7 or 8. He will be missed.
Boot to the Head Anime Conversion - Funnier than live
Heard this skit YEARS ago on the Dr. Demento show! Ah, the memories. What they need is the martial arts boot to the head skit.

Oh yes, I loved Dr. Demento! Great GFR story. My radio station growing up was WQLT which is owned by the Phllips family, Sam worked there before he moved to Memphis to start a little publishing company called Sun Records...

We had a band of high school kids who could emulate GFR to the tee. I think it was about 1971. I remember an assembly in the auditorium when they played and absolutely tore the house down. I wonder if they do that in High Schools any more . . .
I played the crap out of my GFR double album as well as the Woodstock album on a record player which had a turntable that got so hot it discolored the record labels.
KPPC radio in Pasadena was my station. Wikipedia has a great article about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KPPC It was home to Dr. Demento and Firesign Theater as well as the Credibility Gap. I was introduced to rock music through them and a couple of brothers I hung out with. I didn't know it at the time, but we were at the roots of something very special in pop culture and, in a larger sense, American History.

One of my brothers had this LP and I used to sneak into the boy's room to listen to it. I think I scratched it up and the boys complained to Momma so she got me my own little record player. This was one of the first 45s I asked for.
Catholic High School Girls in Trouble
This song was on a Dr. Demento record I used to have. I had hoped to find a video, but nothing turned up.
