Favoriting Merrily We Roll Along with MHLee: Playlist from September 2, 2022 Favoriting

MHLee's avatar View MHLee's profile Favoriting

Merrily We Roll Along is a mish-mash of high energy lunacy, reverence, and irreverence for forgotten pop stars, love for Saturday morning cartoons, and exploration of the side of Bandcamp where I seem to be the only one purchasing. Bringing to you the odd and the upbeat from a growing collection of pre-rock novelties, classic and neo-Vaudeville, jug bands, polka, klezmer, and more at the convenient hour of 8-9 AM EST, Merrily We Roll Along starts the day off with a little light-hearted musical tomfoolery cut with an occasional comedy sketch. It's organic, free-range, cheese with the occasional onion thrown in.

Is this fat Elvis?

I think he certainly had been putting on some weight by the time of this recording

I still have to refresh my player at the beginning of your show.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:02am
Jan Turkenburg:

A strange issue that only happens with a particular few DJs
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:02am
MHLee:

Me too. Not sure why but it seems to work
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:04am
Jan Turkenburg:

I think most listeners know that they need tryi refreshing when there's silence at the beginning of a show.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:06am
MHLee:

I believe there's a Bing Crosby recording of this. He sang quite a few cowboy songs thought I don't know if he was in a Western

this selection sounds straight from the Uncle Floyd Show circa 1978

Jan Turkenburg:

No, it's 2 pm here :-)

Grandpa Jones is probably best remembered for Hee-Haw at this point @DJ Guin

Jan Turkenburg:

It's after midnight during your show. That's why I can't listen live, unfortunately

Hi everyone, thanks for the show MHLee – classic country is ALWAYS appreciated!!

And hi Mike Rogers, I also often miss your show live because of European time zone, unfortunately, but catching up in the archives!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:14am
Jan Turkenburg:

Hi Zivilars, our country appears to be in crisis, but I'm ok today ;-)
Avatar 8:15am
DJ Guin:

@MHlee - there was a 'children's' show back in the 70's and 80's that originated out of NJ. I actually knew Uncle Floyd -- he is sad and drinks too much these days. He would play these songs live while playing piano
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:15am
Jan Turkenburg:

I'm sorry Zivilars, in which country do you live again?
Avatar 8:15am
zivilars:

@Jan: The Corona situation or what are you talking about exactly? (other than the Euro and economy crashing, same here in Germany)
Avatar 8:15am
zivilars:

@Jan: Germany :)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:18am
MHLee:

@DJ Guin interesting
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:19am
Jan Turkenburg:

At this moment corona is the least of our problems. We have several crises the nitrogen crisis (with farmers protesting), 13% inflation, draught, hundreds refugees having slept outdoors for a few weeks, trains on strike... did I forget something..?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:20am
MHLee:

Water?
Avatar 8:21am
zivilars:

wow, that sounds bad indeed … you're really already at 13% inflation?? probably soon here in Germany, too. And energy prices through the roof, this even becomes a problem for people who have a "normal" or better salary, it's crazy.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:22am
Jan Turkenburg:

Yes, i forgot energy!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:23am
MHLee:

Oh wait you said drought
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:25am
Jan Turkenburg:

Ah yes I mispelled. After a dry winter, spring and especially summer there was no rain to speak of. That with glaciers shrinking, transport over water rivers becomes difficult. Ground water levels are dropping beneath records, etc...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:26am
MHLee:

Yeah, I've seen some images and heard things from my close friend in Serbia
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:27am
Jan Turkenburg:

Also salt sea water pushing into the rivers is beginning to have consequences.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:28am
MHLee:

I also heard the Oder River on the German-Polish border is just dead
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:29am
MHLee:

I had never heard this particular chaos before
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:29am
Jan Turkenburg:

Through history the Dutch have been focussing on protecting against flood and not against this....
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:30am
Jan Turkenburg:

Meanwhile in Pakistan.... :-(
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:36am
Jan Turkenburg:

Yes The Oder is quite big news overhere. I don't think they have found the cause yet, but dying water animals are causing a cascade effect on the poison levels..
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:37am

Don't think Russ Columbo ever expected that

Sorry everything’s going crazy over there Jan…here we are so used to insanity it doesn’t phase us so much… I suppose that’s one advantage of living in a country with such garbage politics.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:43am
MHLee:

Things are crazy ALL the time
  8:45am
wenzo toad:

There’s been a tree down in the middle of my street since a huge storm Monday… I guess they’re to busy what with all the downed power lines to clear a street only a dozen or so people live on. I kind of like it tho, feels peaceful not having any cars drive by. Maybe my neighbors feel the same.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:46am
MHLee:

Little Spike Jones send off in the beginning there
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:51am
MHLee:

@Wenzo trees in the road is a relatable experience
  8:53am
wenzo toad:

I just saw there’s an official looking dude looking at it now. Just one guy, they must still be scrambling. I was hoping we’d be a dead end street for a while longer. Oh well.

It was quite a move by Ween to go to Nashville and get all the professional Nashville sessions guys to record with them

Thanks for spinning the platters MHL!

Another enjoyable show, thanks MHLee!

Thanks for listening Wenzo! We will go slightly over but not much!
