Here she comes! The Black Diamond Express to Hell with Sin the Engineer holding the throttle wide open; Pleasure is the headlight, and the devil is the conductor. You can feel the roaring of the express and the moanin' of the drunkards, liars, gamblers and other folk who have got aboard. They are hell-bound and they don't want to go. The train makes eleven stops but nobody can get off - Vocalion advertisement for Rev. A.W. Nix's 1927 recording Black Diamond Express to Hell

http://soundclick.com/share?songid=7342253 I thanks ye sir. We here at O'Muck's Thanatology institute are exploring new ways, like our cryogenic Holiday Hider option and now our Human Taxidermy eterna-plasty front hall coat rack, umbrella stand option, to provide ephemeral life forms with unique preservation opportunities. One no longer need think of death as the long goodbye but as a chance to serve your loved ones generation after generation as a decorative and useful coat and hat rack, sandwich board holder, Objet d'art etc.
My voice is always a surprise to me Mr.Slack, I never quite know what to expect or what I'm going to get. Its an adventure every time these days, so thanks much for the good words. Always enjoyable, M. O'Muck. Love the graphic as well. Here's wishing it's a long time before you get stuffed.
Mr. O:
Well done and thoroughly enjoyable! (--to echo Uncle Bud.) Now I remember where I've seen you--in one of those dioramas at the American Museum of Natural History! Talk about your posers!! Jeesus, the lengths that some people will go to... Your singing gives me hope
My old granny had a pair of monkey's and when they died, as they do, she took them to the taxidermist and asked him what he suggested. Well of couse he said to have them stuffed and mounted, to which she replied, "Oh no, holding hands would be quite sufficient...." ..crazy, just crazy ..! So, I could be preserved as a guitar stand? ..oh, the possibilities
..thanks for the entertainment! ..Tom Excellent, Mr O'Muck. Sounds like the B side to Sam Chatmon's "God Don't Like Ugly!" Don't know that one Frankie But it sounds right up my ally. Thanks for the good words. Pages: [1] Go Up
