Quote:
"Oh my goodness, don’t tell me I helped you through puberty too," Cassandra Peterson, once known as horror host "Elvira, Mistress of the Dark," told KCRW's Garth Trinidad during a guest-DJ session on Wednesday. "If I had a dime for every guy who said I helped him through puberty..."

Well, here's another dime, Elvira. Happy Halloween!

Peterson stopped by Los Angeles' indie standout as part of the radio station's Guest DJ program, which has given people like Digg's Kevin Rose, skate legend Tony Hawk, Iron Man director Jon Favreau and more a chance to spin their favorite tunes through the laser. And to be honest, Peterson turned in a less than ghoulish set, pumping out oldies but goodies like Elvis Presley's "Hound Dog," The Beatles' "I Saw Her Standing There," The Pretenders' "Brass in Pocket" and Jimi Hendrix's "Foxy Lady." The newest tune in her playlist was The White Stripes' "Conquest." They just don't make them like they used to.

But Elvira did come clean on her date with Elvis and a fling with Jimi, Listening Post's favorite guitarist.

On Elvis: "It wasn’t that exciting. I mean it was exciting -- oh God, it was exciting for me -- but not that much happened because I was 17. That spells jailbait."

On Hendrix: "Man, the first time I heard Hendrix, I just didn’t know what hit me. I was such a freak. I followed him around where he played in the United States, just like concert to concert, and then finally I met him too at the Denver Pop Festival. And I had quite a lot of fun with him, I must say. Ow!"
