Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs’ “Wooly Bully” (1965) was a huge novelty rock hit, with its famous “Hully Gully” riff. It was reportedly the #1 pop single of 1965 on some charts. The song’s nonsensical lyrics and raw Tex-Mex garage sound made it emblematic of mid-’60s fun rock. Decades later, *Rolling Stone* listed it as one of the 500 greatest songs.
