Hey ho, Spacebro! Will you be playing Weird-Girl Groups or Weird Girl-Groups ?

@ Fab - I think they fall in both categories.

I had never heard of Elvis Don Ringo until this week. So far behind!
Avatar 5:08pm

I hadn't heard this until now. Elvis Don Ringo didn't get the airplay that Lorne Greene did.

There was no one not named "Johnny" in the 1950s.

The Three Graces are wrong. I think "7L" is just half of a swastika.
Avatar 5:16pm
David in California:

Does 7L predate Sam the Sham using L7 to mean square in Wooly Bully?
Avatar 5:18pm
spacebrother:

@ David - It might. I couldn't get a date on the recording.

This is a pretty great set so far. Distractedly trying to get into the radio zone. It's taking time, but I think I'm almost there... and you are helping!

I feel like I finally cracked the code of what this record is "satirizing."

"Junior Varsity" have a very "Threeteens" vibe to them.
Avatar 5:22pm
spacebrother:

OK, maybe there were a few "Mike"s in the 1950s too.

Although they are making fun of the old expression of exasperation.

@ Austin - Now I need to look that one up!

Good morning Greg and gang

The "One X One" song seems very "X + Y = Z" to me.

And they have a song called, "Bobby The Beatnik" that I adore.
Avatar 5:26pm
spacebrother:

Hey Aitch! Hope you're enjoying the show.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:27pm
Austin Rich:

I wonder if you can composite who "Johnny" is, and what he's like, combining all the songs that are about him?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:28pm
Austin Rich:

I xxx-ooo Ken Nordine. The best.

@ Austin - That would make a great book, or at least a blog post.

Austin, for starters, he's an angel, and he doesn't get angry.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:30pm

Exactly, @David! And people wonder if he's queer, too.
Avatar 5:31pm

The researcher must first begin with a list as we are doing here.

Noël's pronunciation is, itself, a thing that cracks me up.
Avatar 5:32pm

I think he had a Vegas residency. There's an album that claims so, anyway.

More Mel!

A little more Mel Blanc.

Greg, yes, Coward said that many in his Vegas audiences thought he was Rex Harrison.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:34pm
Austin Rich:

Woah. This song is... something.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:36pm
Austin Rich:

This "Bartender" set is wonderfully charming. You need some samples from "Barfly."
Avatar 5:36pm
spacebrother:

According to popular music, I guess a lot of men hated their wives in the 1950s.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:37pm
Austin Rich:

Or some routines by AP Mike from The Best Show about the bar he hangs out at.
Avatar 5:37pm
spacebrother:

@ David - I can see how those provincial Americans could make that mistake!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:38pm
Austin Rich:

If old radio shows are anything to be believed, the "everyone hated their wives in the 50's" was certainly a trope.
Avatar 5:40pm
spacebrother:

On one trip to Disneyland, I saw Cruella standing in a doorway on Main Street. A little nervous, I approached her and said "You're my hero." She looked at me with surprise, then contempt, rolled her eyes, and snorted and walked away. SWOON!!
Avatar 5:41pm
spacebrother:

And the actress was made up to look a little older, but obviously wasn't, which contributed to the swoon.
Avatar 5:42pm
spacebrother:

I think she was supposed to be the Glenn Close version.
Avatar 5:43pm
Mr Fab:

And they really hated the mother-n-laws. At least according to all the jokes and sit-coms.
Avatar 5:43pm
spacebrother:

My first mother-in-law hated me too. i liked her, so it was confusing.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:44pm
Austin Rich:

Cruella is pretty rad. I haven't seen any of the new stuff, but as a kid, I sang this song all the time. Only later did i realize she was not really supposed to be idolized.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:44pm
Austin Rich:

Mother-In-Laws are complicated. But certainly not as bad as sitcom jokes would make you think.
Avatar 5:45pm
Mr Fab:

Castration Squad feat. Dinah Cancer, the ex of our own Don Bolles. Wonder what his mother-in-law thought of him?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:48pm
Austin Rich:

I sort of forgot how the 70's and 80's were the high mark for comedy about going crazy. I guess Napoleon XIV presaged that trend by a few years, but I think by the 2000's, that trend is no longer "PC."
Avatar 5:50pm
Mr Fab:

i have no idea what's gong on here but it's quite fun.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:51pm
Austin Rich:

Welcome to the World of Tony Tani, I guess?
Avatar 5:51pm
spacebrother:

Yeah, well no one is going to play Julie Brown's "Homecoming Queen's Got A Gun" song.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:51pm
Scott67:

Sounds like my like Fab!🍻😎🤙🩴🩴
Avatar 5:52pm
spacebrother:

Tony Tani is insane and actually looked totally cool.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:52pm
Austin Rich:

Apparently, he was an entertainer who was Japanese, who performed in stereotypes for American audiences. But had a bit of a career in both countries, I guess? I'll have to read up on this more...

Oh, wait... it's even more complicated than that. Yeah, read the wiki...

Another show idea.

"Hair" across the countries?

Thanks Greg! Too brief mate, I was just entering a trance of blissful ignorance.

I don't know if it was done anywhere else besides Japan, but I suppose it had to be. I played about 5 or 6 versions of songs from Rocky Horror on one show a couple of years back.

Thank you, Greg! I've enjoyed the show.
