Frank Gallop - Got A Match?

Frank Gallop was a stockbroker-turned-actor who gained fame by voicing spooky radio shows like Lights Out, an Inner Sanctum clone.

When novelty tunes were A Thing, his 14 words on this single drove it to Billboard's #57 in 1958.

Gallop's also famous for the awful Ballad of Irving, but you can find that for yourselves.

...and yet, "The Ballad of Irving" was still better than Lorne Greene's "Ringo".
