Favoriting Merrily We Roll Along with MHLee: Playlist from September 23, 2022 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.

Tiny Tim used to have these fascinating/pathetic interviews on Howard Stern, where he'd describe in toe-curling detail such subject as his impotency, and reviews of various cleaners he was obsessed with. One of those guys who had to wash his hands all day.,

He's a weird and complicated character. I've read his biography.

@scott67 when are you going to be on WFMU again?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:25pm

@kat apparently he didn't trust underwear because he didn't think you could get it clean... so the diapers were throw-away underwear

Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:27pm

He also had a huge 78 collection. Archived a ton of stuff. I often use the originals of songs I have him singing to fill out my MWRA shows.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:28pm

Robm, Terre asked me to do another Drop-In Show, to keep as a backup for any DJ dropouts. I must get my shit together & do it. The Schedule is booked out for rest of 2022.

Robin on the Stern show said she was happy to hear that he died. Not because she disliked him, but because he seemed tortured by all his obsessions/compulsions. A prisoner to them. At last he found peace.

BTW there's a big secondary market for CRTVs in the right audience. The apparently don't have visual lag so pro-gamers prefer them.

i used to drive around with a princess phone (push button though) in my car beause i liked how it looked...

my good friend had a payphone he stole in his bedroom
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:59pm

Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:59pm

the same guy who taught me how to build a phone dialer (to use on payphones and not have to pay) -- came in handy for long distance girlfriends

I was tempted to play something from Metal, meat, Bone... which is a really good modern Residents release but went with this one instead
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:09pm
MHLee:

Sample from the Human Beinz
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:09pm
Rich in Washington:

Speaking of sending away for music 'sight' unseen...
I kept reading about The Residents and finally sent away for their Buy or Die mail order catalog and randomly chose a few records and it completely fucked me up for normal music forever.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:10pm

nice
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:10pm
MHLee:

I don't even know. I think I got here looking for covers of Telster.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:10pm

They made loops by bending a wire hanger and making it hit against the stylus at a desired place. High tech!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:10pm

i remember seeing Residents ads/promos in Thrasher before i ever heard em
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:11pm

I think ESKIMO changed the way I thought about popular music
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:11pm

Yeah, they advertised in lots of magazines. I remember an ad in the back of Rolling Stone that finally did it for me. I think I still have some old Buy or Dies in my flat files.

I never figured out what that last minute of this song is doing.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:16pm

We had a similar marching outfit in Portland called the March Fourth Band (I think they originally formed for a protest). They're pretty groovy.

You can thank the NightFlight show for heppin me to the Residents c.1982. They did a mini-doc about em and showed the “Constantinople” video.
That’ll do it.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:23pm
spodiodi:

haha chresti good one
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:23pm
MHLee:

I couldn't figure out whether Russolo got caught up in the fascist party. I know the Russian futurists mostly avoided that... but Zang tang thum or whatever that song was called... that guy surely did get into it
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:25pm
MHLee:

The Futurist Cookbook is also worth seeing just as a curiosity piece. Folks at vice tried to cook from it a few years back... weird food
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:25pm
StringOFperils:

Italian Futurism was specifically about speed, dynamism, the replacement of men by machines, and death. Oddly, the art that expressed it was often beautiful

Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:26pm

@StringOfPearls Oddly the industrial culture handbook could certainly be read to be about the same stuff... but I don't think most of them celebrated that... unlike the Italians
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:28pm
Rich in Washington:

I am literally staring at this album on my wall at the moment.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:28pm
MHLee:

I think industrial... at least good industrial brings awareness of the condition of dehumanization we exist in... the situation one might say.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:29pm

There's a hypnotic quality to the beats on this stuff. I wish rivetheads were more about these days.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:34pm
MHLee:

Strong religious themes in this episode-eh?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:36pm
StringOFperils:

Provocative as it's supposed to be. A product of a time when dialogue descends into violence. It's a suffocated scream.

@WR The thing is... Owsley Stanley definitely hand CIA handlers and was handing out "candy"

Yep. He was something else. I think The Deviants really paved the way for Punk, too.

I watched the doc but I think the last Laibach album I bought was Volk.

The most recent album is more a return to some sort of the previous state. A lot of cut up sounds. Proclamation in German.

Waters has some tracks in his solo career that stand out too. He's got a wit. I particularly like the line in Two Suns in the Sunset (about nuclear holocaust) "looks like the human race is run". That pun takes the (yellow) cake.
