letters of complaint Allan received from his son Robert while attended
Camp Champlain in Westport, New York. The song is a parody that
complains about the fictional "Camp Granada" and is set to the tune
of Amilcare Ponchielli‘s "Dance of the Hours". The song scored #2
on the Billboard Hot 100 list for three weeks beginning August 24,
1963 and won a 1964 Grammy Award for comedy
