Insanity on the radio!

August 8, 1966-Forty eight years ago today the song "They're Coming to take Me Away, Ha Ha" peaked at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Released by an artist mysteriously named Napoleon the 14th, in reality it was record producer Jerry Samuels.  The public loved the novelty song but a follow-up and album with a similar theme both bombed.  It seems the insanity approach works once, but not again.  Today's forgotten oldie... They're Coming to Take Me Away Ha Ha!!
