Favoriting Merrily We Roll Along with MHLee: Playlist from April 12, 2024 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.

Hey Mh! I just found out I’m able to take out vinyl records from the library, I took out big bands and territorial bands from the 20s and 30s!

It wasn’t from my local library thought, it was through the statewide borrowing system, I didn’t even know it was gonna be vinyl until it showed up at the library, that made me very happy

I'd assume it wouldn't be 78s because playing 78s and not destroying them is a speciality hobby
