Bruce also contributed a song to the fun A.I.P. 1959 drive-in classic GHOST OF DRAGSTRIP HOLLOW.  The song in question is a very Bruce-like ballad called "I Promise You" credited to Bruce Johnston and Judy Harriett.

The movie itself is a 65 minute riot... a comedy horror epic with drag racing teens in a car club up to hijinks in a haunted house, where they encounter a beast previously featured in AIP's THE SHE CREATURE.  This was the template for the Beach Party movies... GHOST IN THE INVISIBLE BIKINI (1966) was a kind of a nod to this one...

Starts at 12:47 on Part 2.

So wait, the credit is Harriett-Johnston?  That's prescient.

AIP had a record label!  "I was not aware of that."  Makes total sense though.
