Favoriting Merrily We Roll Along with MHLee: Playlist from November 1, 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.

All Saints Day, associated with Dia de los Muertos in Mexico. It is a bank and government holiday in Mexico. I was once sent to Mexico City to do some work and due to my managers not realizing that I got a 4 day weekend holiday paid by the company.

Sounds cool, though I guess it won't be in my listening hours, unless you are on the East coast
Any idea of when that would be scheduled?

WR:

Today's Merrily episode is excellent. Using the Crumb early jazz great cards as a starting point, you've selected recordings that well represent the artists but aren't (except maybe for JR Morton) the usual go to "hits" the artists are known for.

Midnight to 2am for me, like I thought. I'm quite often just back from a show at the start (or middle) but need sleep by then
Is there a theme or is it freeform?

Thanks for the great episode, Mason. Wow, the stream came in with Cab Calloway St James Infirmary. Both seasonal and fitting your theme. Laters folks.
