DR. DEMENTO A.K.A. BARRY HANSEN

radio host/music historian

“My folks had a lot of records that they let me play, but the first one that I remember buying myself with my own money was ‘Lavender Blue Dilly Dilly’ by Burl Ives, which would have been in 1949. I had just seen the movie ‘So Dear to My Heart’ which features that song.”
