A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Loretta Lynn carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Thanks for the phabulous Phylis. I heard her do that "Playtex living bra died" line on TY many times, but never the full version before. | |
|

CheriPi:
I'm glad you played Phyllis-I'm too young to have heard her perform her comedy like that-only references to it. | |
|
Tue. 11/23/10 9:39am
Cecile:
Aw, Phyllis is great. A late bloomer, a real role model for women, and hilarious. | |

I borrowed a Jan Svankmayer DVD from a friend, and my house was robbed before I could watch it. I found him a copy, but am too afraid to borrow it again | |

Totie Fields? Anne Meara? Elaine May? | |

I'm loving this song. I'm listening to it at work, and it's getting me in the mood. And I am multislacking. | |

whoa; I thought I was the Dieter Moebius completist in the room, and yet I see on yonder playlist something I ain't heard yet...! Egad, I'm late! | |
|
Tue. 11/23/10 9:46am
Cecile:
And standup, until the early 80s at least, was most definitely a man's game. | |

Angry Catman:
Moondog!! Huzzah!! That guy apparently used to hang out right outside my building. Love the Moondog. | |
|

BSI:
...and whatsis about Jan Svankmajer? His PUNCH AND JUDY is one of my favorite films by anybody. For the sound as much as the visuals. | |

Ringy-dingy:
Nice to be listening for once from the Eastern Time Zone, Trouble. Happy birthday, D.J. Icepack! | |
|
Tue. 11/23/10 9:49am
Cecile:
Trouble played the soundtrack from a game of stones | |
|
Tue. 11/23/10 9:49am
Cecile:
Which I have seen and was the reason why I borroed the cursed DVD. | |

Cecile, don't forget Joan Rivers was a big deal back in the day, subbing for Carson & whatnot. | |
|
Tue. 11/23/10 9:51am
Cecile:
How could I forget Joan? Jeez, thanks! Yes, Joan. She was even big in the 70s. | |

Remember that dreadful movie "Rabbit Test?" | |

Bonjour Trouble | |

Cecile:
But there were great comic actresses in the 60s and 70s. I still miss Madeline Kahn. So good. About the only factor that made Mark II of the Cosby Show any good. | |

i've been posting harpo marx videos on FB... dj icepack shares his birthday, today with that amazing musician and comedian. | |

i just watched Blazing Saddles, her Marlene Dietrich was dead on!! I don't remember if she won the oscar but she was nominated for it. | |

Jennique:
Good morning Trouble! Thanks for the stop-motion animation shout out. I am a huge fan of Jan and all the greats and even created a movie myself which took YEARS. I give stop-motion animators a ton of credit for their patience and work. | |
|

Speaking of hilarious stop-motion, did anyone here see "A Town Called Panic"? I laughed until I couldn't breathe any more. | |

I'm with you on Madeline Kahn. Great in all her Mel Brooks appearances. I had a thing for her as the empress in History of the World when I was a kid. | |
|
Tue. 11/23/10 10:11am
tim:
Oh yeah, Moms Mabley too. Her routines about having an affair with the Kennedys are pretty hilarious. | |
|

Oh, yeah! Moms! | |

I was half-tempted by a Rusty Warren album at Goodwill the other day. And the back-of-sleeve copy on a record like that is always a kick. (I definitely shoulda picked up the Paul Revere & the Raiders album for the extraordinarily purple prose profiles of the boys on the back. The Mark Lindsay bit alone is worth the 99 cents.) | |

Fanny Brice was a pioneer in vaudeville and radio as well. | |

That rusty warren stuff is classic. Bounces Back, Knockers Up, all great. | |

Rusty's interview in one of the Incredibly Strange Music books is awesome. Shows how much of an ass kicker she was. | |
|
Tue. 11/23/10 10:18am
Cecile:
I remember that interview well. Ahead of her time! Knockers up! | |

That was one of those perfect skips ... seemed programmed .... haunting ... | |
|

βrian:
Vinyl has such a rich, rich, rich, rich sound ... | |
|
Tue. 11/23/10 10:58am
john:
i hope that skipping was NOT intentional.. because it worked out so perfectly. | |
|
Tue. 11/23/10 10:58am
Parq:
Younger listeners were not around for the days, in the early 80s, when records were routinely allowed to skip for a full minute or two before they were corrected. | |
|
Tue. 11/23/10 11:02am
βrian:
Back when the DJ would say, Brother can you spare a dime? Then tape it to the tone arm. | |
|

Parq:
βrian, nice big grin over here. | |

In non-radio play....Over The Hills and Far Away skipped so reliably in the same spots on a church youth center jukebox that the stuck/repeated bits remain part of the way the song's wired in my head. | |

I think you should make Green cupcakes for DJ Ice Pack's Birthday, oh wait, been there, done that! | |

I lived in Providence for over 13 years and saw some of its most creative musical output in that time but Blossom Dearie wrote my favorite RI song, hands down. | |

Oh wow, I've never heard a reggae version of Don't Take Your Guns to Town. Makes the whole song kinda chipper, unlike the man in black's version. | |
