Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from December 9, 2022 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).

Had to listen to last week's (ragtime) show on Saturday, but the work and research you put into AJH was obvious and appreciated. I'm here for curtain this week.

Aw thank you :)))

I can only stay for a couple of hours, so pack the best material into that time, pls! Hi, Bronwyn et al.

Bronwyn Bishop:

Haha I used to do a 4-hour show in college (didn't get to pick the music though.) 2 hours is perfect IMO
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:02pm

LG, the program is only 2 hours long, so I think you are ok if you are here for a couple of hours.

WR:

And hello Bronwyn and stage door johnnies and Joanies.

TonyR:

Sorry to hear that "Lady Sings the Blues" was news to you. Some of the movie didn't age well, but the music was one of Miss Ross' finest solo achievements.

Thank God we are not listening to Sons of Mumford!

I think I speak for all your listeners in saying that we want to be invited to your office party!

@WR, thanks for trying to cheer me up! But I know what I’m missing. (Sob!)

Camp goddess, and a very interesting woman, Miss Moorehead. Does Agnes sing in this? I think the "pouring tea" line sounded like her owing purely to the impeccable diction.

Moose Charlap! I left my brain at the door, but it might know something about Moose Charlap for some reason.

Welch singing "Stormy Weather " in that Derek Jarman film is one of the 7 wonders of the world.
Avatar 🎭 7:24pm
Listener Gregory:

@TonyR, which film is that?
Avatar 🎭 7:25pm
TonyR:

"The Tempest", 1979.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:26pm
Webhamster Henry:

The song Groucho claims was written for The Cocoanuts that wasn't used was "All Alone, byt the Telephone...". Well, they did get The Monkey-Doodle-Doo.
  7:31pm
Listener Gregory:

No one would give a beautiful song like Always to a Marx Bros movie.
@Tony, thanks! I haven’t seen that one.
  7:32pm
Listener Gregory:

In honor of Bronwyn’s party, I’m going to get a drink and stand around now. If I avoid your eye contact, be assured that everyone is getting that treatment.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:33pm
diciassette:

That is a funny thought: if a song is really beautiful you'd better keep it away from the Marx Bros

Is this man Welsh?

I thought I knew Richard Thompson well, but it seems I knew nothing. Never heard of this record.
@diciassette, if you're referring to Thompson, we are told he was born in west London.

I think you did played something from Todd Rundgren's ""Against It", and maybe from Tom Waits's "Frank's Wild Years".. that is , Pop Stars who wrote musicals.
Avatar 🎭 7:50pm
TonyR:

Hooray for Bollywood!
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:51pm
Webhamster Henry:

* Todd Rundgren's "Up Against It",
  7:54pm
Listener Gregory:

This Bollywood singer is cracking my speakers.
@doctorj, thanks!
  7:55pm

@Webhamster, also Randy Newman’s Faust, I believe. That is a great one, IMHO.

I'm trying to figure out what spaghetti is doing in this Indian Restaurant.
  7:56pm
Listener Gregory:

Morricone masala!
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:57pm
Webhamster Henry:

@listener Gregory there are probably enough pop star musicals to do a Special (Bronwyn's looking for themes)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:08pm
Bronwyn Bishop:

GOOD IDEA!
  8:15pm
Listener Gregory:

@Henry, also Tom Waits’s Black Rider has been played here. Lou Reed has done a couple of things, including that amazing Lulu with… Metallica? (Some metal group)
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:17pm
WR:

I think it should include only pop star musicals where someone other than the pop stars are performing. Or make those separate shows.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:32pm
WR:

I think there was a Ligeti western. . .
  8:33pm
Listener Gregory:

The stress in Ligeti apparently goes on the first syllable: LIGeti. I agree with you, though, BB.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:33pm
Webhamster Henry:

LI-get-ti. Besst known, maybe, for the scary piece underscoring the psychedelic section of 2001
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:34pm

I have this Mort Record - this is a concept album that goes from birth to death, featuring his translations of Brel tunes, Brecht poems, and original material.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:36pm
Webhamster Henry:

Yes, I used to call it "Mort's Armpit album"

I remember this as Message to Michael (Dionne Warwick), this is nice!
Avatar 🎭 8:41pm
TonyR:

Oof! I missed the backstory on "Philadelphia Chickens", but it was quite the hunt finding new New Balance trainers with ABZORB(tm) in the sole. Apparently it's being phased out in favor of "Fresh Foam". Yeah, I'll decide how "Fresh" when I have a spare $100.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:41pm

This predates the Warwick version.

There was a Green Day musical.

Sonny! 😊
  8:45pm

I knew this would wake you up! Strangely I didn’t recognize Sonny.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:46pm
doctorjazz:

His short dallyance with Blue Note Records.
Avatar 🎭 8:48pm
TonyR:

"Lulu" was intended as an album. "Drella", which was just supposed to be a couple shows at St. Ann's Warehouse, morphed into a straightforward and bracing (and thankfully recorded) story.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 8:49pm

I've also got the Scheveningan Blues, my baby went off with Sven Again...
