Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from December 2, 2022 Favoriting

Bronwyn Bishop's avatar View Bronwyn Bishop's profile Favoriting

Musical theater from off the beaten path. Obscure and unusual show tunes from within the canon and without, flops, failures, and the newest works from up-and-coming artists—plus tried-and-true hits. Also, occasional appearances from songs that are not show tunes (but only if they go really well with show tunes).

Ragtime is the devil's music.
Avatar 🎭 7:01pm
Listener Gregory:

The syncopation excites the animal passions, and the cake-walking couples cannot avoid sin. This is well known.
Avatar 7:01pm
Bronwyn Bishop:

Then call me the antichrist!
  7:02pm
Ragtime Gal:

It's that scandalous syncopation! Stirs the sinful urges
  7:03pm
Ragtime Gal:

Oh, or I could have looked up while typing and seen that what I was about to say was basically already said. Ah well
  7:04pm
Listener Gregory:

@Gal, no worries. We sinners have to stick together.
  7:08pm
Ragtime Gal:

True! And dance our diabolical turkey trots and such. Further proof of the evil of these new technologies: the word hell is right there in the telephone greeting!
Avatar 🎭 7:09pm
Listener Gregory:

"Hello Central, Give Me Doctor Jazz" must have been a very early telephone song, best known in a 1926 performance by Jelly Roll Morton, but apparently written by King Oliver.

What an incredible voice Robeson had... and so they had to screw it up with that angelic chorus! Arrrgggghhhhh

Sarah Vaughan has one of those perfect, instantly recognizable voices, ahhhh!
  7:26pm
Listener Gregory:

I thought for the longest time that Poor Butterfly was written by Duke Ellington. It is not.
  7:30pm
Listener Gregory:

Foster and Allen are definitely cooling my animal passions that were excited by the syncopation.
  7:37pm
Listener Gregory:

OK, I just realized that Duke Ellington wrote BLACK Butterfly! Why has no one corrected me?
Lady Sings The Blues was a big hit, Bronwyn!

I am feeling pretty ragged after hectic day of work.

Doc when will it be ready? Can I fix you a drink?

I really loved the Barbershop Quartet songs in The Music Man, which were done by The Buffalo Bills in the film, no?

Bronwyn, does WFMU have the Bear Family box set of Black Europe or did you get that recording elsewhere?

Well, Ms. B, you have topped yourself with your selection of Screamin' Jay Hawkins. Can't believe this song is from 1913.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:09pm
Doug Schulkind:

Lyrics by Joseph McCarthy. Who knew!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:09pm
Webhamster Henry:

If you like these sappy old songs, you may like to find the Ed B. Marks books "They All Sang" and "They All Had Glamor", the first ghost written by A.J. Liebling.
  8:12pm
Listener Gregory:

Working on my Drummer Stream history, “They All Listened.”
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:14pm
Webhamster Henry:

And for a slightly earlier era of sappiness, check out Sigmund Spaeth's "Read 'em and Weep" archive.org... and "Weep Some More, My Lady" pdfprodocs.vip...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:15pm
Webhamster Henry:

Spaeth is more cynical about his reporting; Ed Marks was actually part of the Tin Pan Alley scene, publishing tunes and writing a few of his own.

WR, maybe 5 minutes, get your drink ready! I'd like one as well (Give Them Cook Some)!

And we’re back to the devil’s music with Ray Charles! We’re all going to hell.

Just a scotch on the rocks will do, WR (or a beer if that's not available).
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:23pm
doctorjazz:

I always thought Screamin' Jay Hawkins got sick of his screaming, climbing out of the coffin at shows (Wikipee says he wanted to be an opera singer originally).

Billy Murray does a good version: archive.org...

I'm assuming that was a subtweet for Doug.

My introduction to several of these early songs was via The Little Rascals when I was a little scamp. Here's a beer Doc, I just got beer, mezcal or rum Oh, wait, I do have some VSOP brandy.

No. That one guy over there isn't.

I dunno, what does Ted Lewis say?

Turkenburg on the Sheena steam did two programs featuring versions of The Japanese Sandman. And I listened to it all....

I'm giddy 'cause I just bought Claire Rousay tickets. She's performing at the Warhol Museum in February.

@WR, I think that I heard a lot of these songs as spoofs in cartoons, Bugs Bunny especially.

Aside from confusing me with the Post! sign on the right of the box, I haven't yet figured out what else ie new with the new chat board set up.
