Listener comments!
	7:53am Krys O.: Good morning! I'm streaming the show today for MHLee.
	👻 7:57am WR: Hi Krys.
	7:59am MHLee: Hello, thanks for running this Krys. I only have shaky wifi here.
	7:59am Krys O.: ↳ MHLee @7:59 No worries! Glad to help.
	👻 8:01am WR: Hello MHLee. Happy Holidays all.
	👻 8:03am WR: LOL when you got no groceries, make a grocery list.
	8:04am Krys O.: ↳ Song: "On Top of Spaghetti" by "Tom Glazer & The Do-Re-M... I was born when this song came out. It was HUGE when I was in kindergarten. I used to sing it in the bathtub.
	8:07am MHLee: ↳ Krys O. @8:04 Any thoughts on the kielbasa pronunciation?
	👻 8:07am WR: ↳ Song: "On Top of Spaghetti" by "Tom Glazer & The Do-Re-M... I know of Tim Glazer but never came across that album before.
	8:07am MHLee: I'll have to ask my half Polish grandmother
	8:08am MHLee: Battle Hymn of Children sounds wild
	8:12am Krys O.: The Polish way is: kyew-basa. The real spelling is kiełbasa. That L with a stroke is pronounced like a W sound. The W letter in Polish is pronounced as a V sound. The acceptable American pronunciation would be: Kyel-basa. NEVER SAY KABASSI. Oof.
	8:13am Krys O.: Here's the Polish alphabet: en.wikipedia.org...
	8:14am Krys O.: The levels are really low on the Lil' Wally.
	8:15am Krys O.: I have settings maxed out on it too.
	8:16am MHLee: I try to normalize things but the level thing tends to happen with archive.org stuff
	8:17am Krys O.: ↳ MHLee @8:16 I understand, but you can amplify in Audacity or use compression.
	👻 8:17am WR: ↳ Krys O. @8:15 Thanks to your riding the levels, Lil Wally cane through ok.
	8:21am Krys O.: Back in the East Orange days of WFMU, the last night of the marathon was a polka party. We had accordion, pots and pans, and whatever one brought. One of the long time DJs who was around since the 60s was Lou D'Antonion aka The Duck. He became Lil' Wally for that night as the band played Roll Out the Barrel numerous times.
	8:22am Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Prune Song" by "Ken Griffin" This sounds better than prunes.
	8:23am MHLee: Doing some reading on reddit and someone suggested the bossy pronunciation comes from the plural of the word
	8:24am MHLee: Seems like I need to mute system sounds on my new computer
	8:27am Krys O.: The Polish plural of kiełbasa is kiełbasy. Heaven knows the history of mangling that word.
	8:29am MHLee: ↳ Krys O. @8:27 It's apparently pretty big even on the peripheral of the Western PA accident. Places where people aren't yinzers.
	8:30am MHLee: A poll of American's found that the Yinzer accent was rated the least attractive in the US
	8:30am MHLee: ↳ Song: "Apples, Peaches And Cherries" by "Josh White And ... Smooth voice
	8:32am Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Apples, Peaches And Cherries" by "Josh White And ... I saw Josh White's son perform at an all-class reunion at Madison High School down in Nashville many years ago. My ex went there, and with the abundant talent, they put on a concert. I met Randy and Gary Scruggs (Earl's sons) there. I also met Jody Maphis who's father Joe was a famous double-necked guitar player.
	👻 8:32am WR: ↳ Krys O. @8:21 Great memory.
	8:33am Krys O.: ↳ WR @8:32 There's video of one of those nights that made it into the Sex and Broadcasting documentary.
	8:34am MHLee: ↳ Krys O. @8:32 Your ex's father was a pretty big bass player in old Nashville. I recall seeing comically large shows he wore at the Nashville Country Music Hall of Fame
	8:34am Krys O.: ↳ MHLee @8:24 It sounds more like automatic gain on your on-mic background music. It gets louder when you pause.
	8:35am MHLee: ↳ Krys O. @8:34 That's the autoduck on the music. I usually eliminate the spaces between my speaking to fix that but didn't have the opportunity with these two show.
	8:36am MHLee: I kept hearing a "windows sound" earlier
	👻 8:37am WR: ↳ Krys O. @8:32 Wow, quite a range of talent there.
	8:37am Krys O.: ↳ MHLee @8:34 Bob Moore played with Little Jimmy Dickens and Red Foley while doing thousands of sessions for all sorts of artists for Chet Atkins and Owen Bradley productions.
	8:38am MHLee: ↳ Krys O. @8:37 When I was in Nashville it was the Dylan in Nashville sessions that was on display
	8:39am MHLee: He's not credited on Nashville Skyline but is on Self Portrait
	8:40am Krys O.: ↳ MHLee @8:38 Bob was on the Self-Portrait album. He wasn't on Nashville Skyline.
	8:40am MHLee: I like Self-Portrait actually
	8:42am Krys O.: Bob was on a session for Simon & Garfunkel, but it ended not being used. I've heard his playing so much, I can pick it out. He appeared on tons of Elvis, Patsy Cline, Brenda Lee, and the list goes on and on and on.
	8:44am Krys O.: I forget to include Orbison who was also a friend of Bob's.
	8:45am MHLee: ↳ Krys O. @8:42 I'll have to listen to some of these to figure out what he does stylistically
	8:46am MHLee: I can only really tell when Lonnie Johnson is on a recording as a session muscian
	8:47am Krys O.: ↳ MHLee @8:45 It's a jazz thing. The Nashville musicians used to jam on jazz music at clubs in Printer's Alley after recording sessions. Bob backed Tupper Saussy on his albums. You should check those out.
	8:53am MHLee: The windows sounds are driving me up a wall. It'll have to make sure to turn them off though they might be on next weeks recording
	8:57am MHLee: Thanks Krys O.
	👻 8:57am WR: ↳ MHLee @8:53 Funny, I've not noticed any computer sounds. Not listening on headphones, just on the phone while preparing food. Speaking of food. Getting your food order delivered to the wrong place multiple times sounds like a pain. Hope that doesn't continue to happen.
	8:58am Krys O.: Thanks for a fun show, MHLee! I'm hungry!
	8:59am MHLee: I assume they are on the recordings because I have them all turned off on this computer
	👻 8:59am WR: Thank you, Mason; thank you, Krys. Have a good day all.
	👻 8:59am WR: I think I heard what you are referring to right at the end.

Merrily We Roll Along with MHLee: Playlist from December 27, 2024

View MHLee's profile

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.
