Here Come The Judge by the Magistrates 1968

Details

Description

This 45 was one of many family records that I studied as a kid. I love this song! While researching this record, I discovered that there were quite a few "Here Come The Judge" records, not one of them being remotely similar to the other! This one, by the Magistrates, is novelty version based on the Laugh-In TV series judge skits, which were probably inspired by the earlier "Judge" records (talk about trends creating trends!).

Tons of fun reading about the entire JUDGE craze that swept the nation back in the late 60s can be found here: http://funky16corners.tripod.com/funky_judge.htm
