Favoriting Merrily We Roll Along with MHLee: Playlist from September 27, 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.

Listener Robert:

Wow, then how did Irwin get all his Carl Stalling tracks? Does he just get them as accompaniment tracks of cartoons?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:07am
MHLee:

↳ Listener Robert @8:05
There are two releases on CD of the Carl Stalling Project that colected a lot of scores from cartoons.
  8:09am
Listener Robert:

↳ MHLee @8:07
Thanks. Did Irwin have anything to do with the Project? He's so tied up in my mind with this stuff.
  8:11am
Listener Robert:

Also, did Mr. Stalling do any music for the Harman-Ising productions that preceded their acquisition by WB?

Looks like John Zorn was responisble for them

Spike Jones reference?

As far as I can tell the Bosko cartoons had a different bandleader

Listener Robert:

↳ MHLee @8:14
I don't know whether that explanation of how a horn works preceded Spike Jones, or whether his was the original, but this was clearly referencing it either way.

I thouight the "Good Evening Music Lovers!" was a hint
  8:25am
Listener Robert:

↳ Song: "Stalling Self-Parody: Music from Porky's Preview"...
Imagine how it would've been had Porky's preview (the cartoon within the cartoon) itself contained a version of Porky's Preview, getting farther away from realistic drawing and music at each stage. Fabio somewhere had a series of drawings representing musical styes more and more abstract, so like that I guess.

Honestly I can't imagine playing any of these scores

It feels like you'd always be running there is so much movement

Listener Robert:

Yes, the horn-explaining song is older than Spike Jones's recording: en.wikipedia.org...

↳ Song: "Skeleton Dance Song" by "Carl Stalling"
Interesting he left Disney and the Silly Symphonies to work on Merrie Melodies
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:53am
MHLee:

Looks like he left with Ub Iwerks and from there went to WB
  8:56am
Listener Robert:

↳ MHLee @8:53
Everybody in the production of cartoons jumped around from studio to studio.

For a while Ub Iwerks and he were their own studio but it struggled and closed apparently
