"Touching Old Magic"

Just heard some of this song from the Halloween Special on the DVD set, nice tune. After looking online, I noticed J. Michael Stracyzensk (however you spell it) wrote the song. Is this a cover of a song by a real band, did he actually write it, is it available anywhere, ect? Thanks.

Given the subject of the song and it’s kinda hokey generic sound, I’m inclined to say it was just written for the show. I’m not sure but I believe the only place to hear it is in the episode. :cool:

It for some reason makes me think of BTO’s Takin’ Care of Business. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6Abk1wqHz4 parts of it anyway

Yeah, thats what I was thinking. Well if anyone who has the know-how ever deciedes to rip the songs from the DVD set, please include this one. Its corny but pretty catchy. Egon and Winston have some pipes, lol.

This year’s WGBI was in this week’s Crossrip podcast. In it Chris included a ‘modern’ rendition of Touching Old Magic that plays near the start.
