Friday Jukebox 9.30.11

If Mr. Peppermint was part of your childhood, this is for y'all.

Mr. Peppermint himself, Jerry Haynes, passed away this week. His son will be remembered as the frontman for the band, the Butthole Surfers. Speaking of which, "Pepper" was off of their '96 album, Electriclarryland.

And as a bonus, here's Mr. Peppermint himself...

His show, Peppermint Place, ran on TV for two decades, from 1975-1996. It was produced at WFAA-TV Dallas/Fort Worth and aired on Saturday mornings on WFAA before the usual ABC Saturday Morning faire. The show was also in syndication in some markets. Jerry will be missed.
