Zebra in the kitchen 1964

Also found something nice n interesting here
Even though the Standells were signed to Liberty Records, we were allowed a special record deal with MGM Records. The recording Zebra in the Kitchen, was the title song from the movie of the same name, starring Jay North. Sung by Larry, the song was produced by Perry Botkin Jr., who was quite a well-known composer / arranger for films in those days. The song was not written by us. It was not even written as a rock song and we had to completely re-arrange it.(Larrys Tamblyn notes)

The flip side of "Zebra..." is even better - "Someday You'll Cry". A great moody garage ballad.
awesome, cant wait to listen to this!!!! but i must wait, i am writing from my workplace....
cheers!!
excellent stuff!!!! Does anyone have the 2 songs they did in the 'Munsters Go Home' episode of the Munsters? I am sure they never properly recorded them, so if they DO exist, no doubt they'd be taken from the show sound itself....anyone have those cool nuggets? jim
I think any B-side "Quetzal" song would be a Sonny Bono composition. He had a habit of writing B-sides with "quetzal" in the title.
thx to GYRO 66 from twilightzone for your post

Am I imagining this? I thought the Monkees also did the song "B.J. Quetzal". (No, I'm not thinking of D.W. Washburn...)
Ahhh yes...cant remember now...we will have to check that!
