David Seville ficou principalmente conhecido pelo seu êxito "Witch Doctor", de 1958, em que acelerava a velocidade de gravação para criar um efeito de voz tipo "Donald Duck".
Nº 11 no Top singles UK e Top álbuns com "Ragtime Cowboy Joe" (Jul 1959)
do wikipedia
Alvin and the Chipmunks is an animated music group created by Ross Bagdasarian, Sr. in 1958. The group consists of three singing animated chipmunks: Alvin, the mischievous troublemaker, who quickly became the star of the group; Simon, the tall, bespectacled intellectual; and Theodore, the chubby, impressionable sweetheart. The trio is managed by their human father and confidant, David Seville. In reality, David Seville was Bagdasarian's stage name, and the Chipmunks themselves are named after the executives of their original record label, Liberty Records: Alvin Bennett (the president), Simon Waronker (the founder and owner), and Theodore Keep (the chief engineer).
The voices of the group were all performed by Bagdasarian, who sped up the playback to create higher pitched, comical, squeaky voices. This oft-used process was also not entirely new to Bagdasarian, who had also used it for two previous novelty song projects, including "The Witch Doctor," but it was so unusual and well executed it earned the trio two Grammy Awards for engineering.
"The Chipmunk Song" foi nº 1 nos EUA
David Seville era o nome de um dos bonecos
Bagdasarian é que era o principal "mentor" do grupo
Quanto aos Beatles
One "documentary" episode spoofed John Lennon's 1966 infamous comment that The Beatles had become "more popular than Jesus", by recalling how the Chipmunks had fallen in popularity after Alvin boasted they were "bigger than Mickey Mouse!"
O disco com temas dos Beatles é de 1964

In a December 1982 Goldmine magazine interview, Ross Bagdasarian, Jr. remembered that his father "thought it would be a cute idea for a Chipmunk record and he spoke with the Beatles. When he was in London, he even met the Beatles, who were very supportive of the idea."
E que tal este disco?
Trata-se, creio, de uma das mais famosas edições de versões, talvez por ter sido das primeiras, não? Eu não tenho (mas adorava ter).
GPS: David Seville, ainda antes dos Chipmunks, era o nome artístico de Bagdasarian e foi com esse nome que foi editado "Witch Doctor"
De facto não tinha lido bem (o que transcrevi do wikipedia) :)

Demasiada wikipedia, caro GPS. Eu tenho ali o disco ("Witch Doctor"). Se quiser o ficheiro é só pedir.
Pelo que eu conheço dos chipmunks deve ser HOOORRRIIVVELL :)
Prefiro o David Fonseca :)
(que para Mr. JC é igual a tortura)
Vou mandar ficheiros pró Filhote e pró Paulo.

Obrigado, Ié-Ié!
