The Men Of Ivy from Muskingum College in Ohio. This is an interesting record going into great detail in a clever way about Titusville Pa’s oil boom. In 1859 Edward Drake hit oil which launched America’s oil industry as we know it. In 1865, just as the civil war was ending, the “Pit-Hole Creek” oil field was discovered. I’m not sure who “Frasier” was that they talk about in this song. From the little bit of information I was able to find on the subject it seems that this song is accurate. This is a very rare 45 from around 1960.

This video is short but quite scary.
A relative took this with her motorola and I am about the wind blowing the dense smoke from the explosion away from my house…
It started around 10:00PM, and for the last 2 hours nothing but fire and chaos.
I can say that around 10:09PM EST is when it started, when we heard a big BOOM!
And our house shook for about a second.
It was like a bloody bomb went off, I went outside to see what happened and was at first wondering what was going on.
Going outside was nothing out of the usual in this area, the refinery has been burning up crap for practically 100 years now.
At night seeing bright orange lights in the skies is not out of the ordinary.
But not tonight, because tonight is when quite literally all broke loose.
It was like watching fireworks, there were two maybe more bangs afterwards, I mainly heard the two initial blasts from this event.
It was like someone was shooting a cannon, not ear splitting but certainly enough to get one riled.
But the big scary bit of the whole thing is that I could hear something pounding in the background, it was rhythmic like the sound of a locomotive.
It was intense, it was like the refinery was a ticking time bomb ready to go off.
It was nightmarish at a distance, and we knew that something was wrong when at least five different fire sirens went off.
At best we hear one or two, but tonight it was way more then that.
Now luckily no one was hurt so far but there was something worse then an explosion out there in the air.
Ethylene Oxide, a product used to make things like detergents and foam, and is a step away from Ethylene glycol…
Antifreeze for those less chemically knowledgeable then I.
Now lucky for me the toxic cloud has blown away from my house, the winds blew towards New Jersey.
No evacuations were called for my general area and nothing suggested any immediate danger.
