In 1978,
Churchill Records released a 45 RPM
record entitled Harry Caray At The
Ballpark. Side A - Take Me Out To The
Ball Game, the baseball classic anthem,
written by Albert Tilzer, Jack
Norworthy in 1908. Caray
performed the song traditionally with
the crowd, in the middle of the seventh
inning, of a baseball game. 'Take me
Out To The Ball Game' recorded by Harry
Caray in the studio was done with a
disco beat.
Executive producer Tommy Martian said, Harry Caray sang the song in Ft.
Wayne, Ind., accompanied by local
studio musicians there. The background
voices and instruments portion was
recorded in Nashville Tenn. The Crowd
nose on the record is an actual White
Sox crowd cheering on opening day
rather than moaning later n in the
season.
Side B -'Na Na Hey Hey'(Kiss him Good bye) written by Gary De Carlo, Dale
Frashner, Paul Leka, was also a staple
at White Sox ballgames. The recording
features basic guitar with a drum beat,
with Na Na Na Na - Hey Hey Hey -
Goodbye vocals. Harry Caray
occasionally does play-by-play...
"Here's the pitch... It Might Be, It
Could Be, It Is!" ..."Holy Cow!"... "We
Really got something going now"... "Boy
We Need a little bit more help" ...
"Let Me hear you"... Just a little
louder, louder, bit louder, that's got
it" ..."Holy Cow"...
