Pickett was a young actor, who sang with a band named the Cordials in the evening while he auditioned during the day.
One night, while performing with his band, he acted out a monologue in the style of horror movie actor Boris Karloff, while performing the Diamonds’ ‘Little Darlin”.
The audience were big fans, and his band member Lenny Capizzi encouraged Pickett to do more of the same.
Pickett and Capizzi then composed ‘Monster Mash’, and recorded it with Gary S Paxton, pianist Leon Russell, Johnny MacRae, Rickie Page, and Terry Berg, named ‘The Crypt-Kickers’.
