Is Steve Allen's swingin' Mancini-esque vocal version of "Bell Book and Candle" available on a CD anywhere? I have it on his "Monday Nights" LP on the Signature label, but would love a digital version.

Great question. I would love to know this also.

These I require to call you forth--
Bell, Book And Candle,
Here by the fire and facing north,
I'll work my magic on you.

Midnight will start the witching hour,
Hour of enchantment,
Then I'll impart the mystic power
Humans believe is taboo.

There are those who laugh at witchcraft
But they've never been caught in its glow
At the sound of the bell
You are under my spell
You'll be trapped by the voodoo that two do.

Silence the bell and close the book.
Snuff out the candle.
Witchcraft was just a chance I took
Too hot too handle,
Bell, Book And Candle,
I'm only human with you.

Finally, someone posted this on the InterTubes.

It is also available on Amazon for U.S. 89 cents.

Was that Steve Allen album originally handed out as a promotional item by Plymouth dealers?

It is listed as part of the standard Signature Records discography, with a catalog number consistent with their numbering system, for whatever that is worth.

"Record was sold as a promotional item for Plymouth and advertised a record player in the car that played 45 rpm records."

But copies made it to retail outlets as well. Maybe the remainder were sent to the cutout bin when Plymouth couldn't give it away.

This track is available as an 89-cent download on the Amazons, but it sounds absolutely horrible! A terrible vinyl rip.

Someone needs to reissue this track!
