I just wanted to keep the ball rolling with the ice cream related posts to celebrate the publication of Marilyn Powell's new book ICE CREAM: The Delicious History...
WFMU's eclectic blog has some mp3s of ice cream truck music here. Just in case you're not blessed enough to live in a neighborhood where the ice cream truck parks in front of your house and blares that same song over and over again with the accompanying screams of children swarming around the truck, you can load those guys on your ipod, set it for repeat and crank up the volume until you start to lose your temper...No really, I LOVE the ice cream truck song, even if it sometimes reminds me of the repetitive mind-control jingle in Halloween III.
More mp3s of ice cream-related music from WFMU here, as well as a long article on the history of ice cream truck music.
...and of course, what better way to beat the heat on a scorching summer afternoon than digging in to such classic ice cream flavors as squid and ox tongue? Am I right, or am I right?
