RIP Jerry Samuels (Napoleon XIV) who reportedly passed today.

Jerry was famous for his long-standing hit, "They're Coming To Take Me Away, HA-HAAA!", a fan favorite on The Doctor Demento Show.

Pictured are my copies of his 1966 debut LP featuing the hit as well as my 7" novelty single with "!ɒɒɒH-ɒH ,γɒwA ɘM ɘʞɒT oT ϱnimoƆ ɘɿ'γɘ⑁T" printed on the b-side (which appropriately plays the song in reverse).
