Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from August 21, 2020 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).

Doug Schulkind:

Back in around 1996, WFMU had a benefit concert in the old Westbeth complex in lowerish Manhattan. We all got there early to set up and perform sound checks for a bunch of the bands. At one point, Paul Simon came down some stairs out of nowhere all fuming and bitching about the noise we were making. He was in an upper practice room working on rehearsals for The Capeman. I will never forget how incredibly assholish he was.

I guess he's not a swag-for-lifer.

Bronwyn Bishop:

Hahaha what a story!!! Yeah I've never heard anything good about either Simon or Garfunkel personality-wise which is a shame considering how beautiful their work together is (don't like their solo careers tho)

Artie used to get arrested for pot in his car up here near Woodstock. It was a tradition!

Doug Schulkind:

A friend once got picked up by Art while hitchhiking in Vermont!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:38pm
Doug Schulkind:

Art was driving some huge fancy car. I can't remember. A Rolls Royce or a Lincoln Continental or something. My friend reported (this was in the '70s) that Art seemed sad.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:40pm

I want to have a drive through Vermont in a Rolls Royce with a sad Art Garfunkel

I'm sure you're being way too polite, Doug, with the "ish" part.

To my mind/ear/gut, Garfunkel is leaps and bounds the more musical of the two.

Maybe a WFMU maven can answer this: Why was an Art Garfuncle song in the middle of the Watership Down movie?

No but I did give a presentation in Luxembourg in 7th grade. Its flag looks like the French flag turned on its side- it's red on top, white in the middle, blue on the bottom

Speaking of Guy Bolton, I'd like to suggest "BRING ON THE GIRLS!", the probably rather fictionalized auto bio of P.G. Wodehouse & Guy Bolton about their life in the theatre. It's reallllyy funnny! Limelight Press.

Minor correction: Wodehouse is pronounced "Woodhouse." Also, "Bring on The Girls" is indeed excellent, as are most Wodehouse books, IMHO.

I've been listening to the show for some weeks, but it is on when I'm making and eating dinner, so I haven't been commenting. So let me say while I'm here that this is a wonderful show, Bronwyn! You really do a fantastic job.

@Bronwyn, I mispronounced it for about 25 years, until "Bertie and Jeeves" made it onto PBS, and the announcer corrected me.

I'm not sure why Let's Evolve made me thing of Napoleon. Maybe it's in the same spirit?
