Favoriting Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from October 16, 2023 Favoriting

austinrich's avatar View austinrich's profile Favoriting

A combination of collage, new experimental records and other bits and bobs, Mid-Valley Mutations is a tour through the mind of Austin Rich, who has been broadcasting in some form since 1998. Heavily influenced by Dr Demento, Don Joyce and old fashioned College Radio, Austin creates Audio Essays on a variety of subjects, and even just plays records, from time to time. Sometimes Live music and Interviews will grace the program, helping create a situation where you don't really know what you're going to hear, when you tune in. What you need to know is when you enter the Mid-Valley region, be prepared for the Musical Mutations... in whatever form they take.

↳ Song: "The Bat" by "The Ventures"
The Ventures in Space! Very formative album for me. Along with taking a shot on a 99cent copy of an Yma Sumac album after seeing her on Letterman. Albums that opened me to the world beyond either mainstream, or alternative. Like, a third level. Anyone else have albums like that in their youth?
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:19pm
Austin Rich:

↳ Mr Fab @6:17
Johnny Cash. My parents never listened to country, and I never heard anything that wasn't really rock and roll. Hearing him opened my mind to the idea that there was good country music... and probably good stuff in all the genres that they thought were hokey, too.
Avatar 6:21pm
Mr Fab:

That's so funny because I was raised on classic country! Lots of Johnny Cash. So one man's mainstream can be another's freaky esoterica.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:21pm

I love the idea of a young Fab buying The Ventures and Yma Sumac in the same week. That would change a mind, for sure.

It certainly caused me to look in other bins, and sort of search more of the store.

Negativland, certainly, blew my young mind. I couldn't believe you could make records like that.

maybe not in the same week! But yeah, at the time I thought I was deep underground cuz I liked Adam & the Ants.

Austin Rich:

↳ Mr Fab @6:23
I think I like Adam & The Ants more now than I did as a young person. I'm not sure what happened there... I guess I was just looking for other things as a kid. I sort of thought "punk" was the ultimate music for many, many years.

↳ Song: "Constipation Blues" by "Screamin' Jay Hawkins"
My mom always thought this song was particularly funny, and she loved telling me about it when I was "the right age." (Probably after she caught me listening to Doctor Demento.)

Radio also sort of blew my mind as a kid. I remember, listening to tapes and stuff started to get boring, and I just loved the spontaneity of radio. It seemed very exciting to me.

Austin Rich:

Ghoulardi makes a brief, "Parma," reference there, a suburban city near him that he would often make fun of. This ultimately resulted in him creating a fake soap opera, "Parma Place," that he would occasionally run "episodes" of on his show. Here's a link to a YouTube clip that has collected all of the Parma Place clips that survived into the modern age.

I've probably mentioned this before: but I got a radio for my 10th birthday, that had a tape deck. I could record the radio, and listen / playback tapes. And I was given a box that could hold 10 tapes, and was offered the chance to record any of my mom's LPs that I liked. That really blew my mind as a kid, being able to not only listen to the radio on my own, but make tapes of stuff I liked, and getting access to my mom's records. That birthday was a big deal for me.

So did Ernie Anderson track down and select the music himself? It's all so incredibly wild for the the early 60s. Must have required a lot of time spent in record shops to find it.
Avatar 7:08pm
Mr. X:

I guess I should tell my Ghoulardi story. I grew up in Akron, Ohio, which was in range of WJW. When I was about 5, my cousins made me watch Ghoulardi. I was too young for it, and it gave me nightmares at first. But around the time I was about 8, Ghoulardi became an obsession, which I would draw as a cartoon for my little brother in an attempt to scare him, which didn't work.
