Diga Diga Doo  performed by  Martin Denny  (1960)
Composed by D. Fields/J. McHugh
Arranged by Martin Denny
Mood: swampy, sexy, mysterious,
Recommended by Solo [profile] on Wednesday 2nd January 2008

Featuring a strange assortment of melodic percussion instruments, brass and punctuated with animal calls which are only equaled by those of Roger Waters on Pink Floyd's Umma Gumma, this is BY FAR the strangest (and coolest) version of this song ever recorded. The Residents must have developed their whole series of Mark of the Mole albums after hearing this recording. "Diga Diga Doo" was originally a show tune for a Broadway review called The Blackbirds of 1928.

from Exotic Sounds Visit Broadway (Liberty Records LST-7163)
available on CD - The Exotic Sounds of Martin Denny (Capitol (Ultra Lounge imprint))

Other Versions: The Mills Brothers, Ella Fitzgerald, Les Baxter
