Track by Track Review
House On Haunted Hill Part 1 Surf (Instrumental)
This is a slowly "fee-fi-fo-fum" introduced track that uses a melody almost exactly like "Istanbul," but with heavy toms underneath. The lead guitar is thin, but the track is fun.
House On Haunted Hill Part 2 Surf (Instrumental)
Like Part one, but with shimmering vibrato chords added to the intro, and more emphasis on the damped lead guitar, and more frantic tom tom action.
