Hey Gary and listeners! Looking forward to the Bollytour...

Shotgun!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:55pm Gary:

Dave and Michael, welcome! Be right back with some fresh coffee ...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:55pm Uncle Michael:

My mucho-talented costumer sister just costumed a Bollywood film, shot in L.A., which I guess isn't that uncommon anymore.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:56pm listener james from westwood:

I will take this show as my launching (lunching?) point for exploring the Indian joints around this year's record fair locale....
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:58pm listener james from westwood:

I'm already whistling "Mera Naam" (SP) in anticipation.
Avatar 6:58pm glenn:

guess whose birthdays are today?
hint: one is the crack music lover behind give the drummer radio.
the other is the crack smoking crackpot who runs my city.
Avatar 6:59pm ndbob:

evening Gary and everyone!
Avatar ♥ 6:59pm hyde:

who doesn't want three hours of Bollywood tunes?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:00pm Gary:

James, Glenn, Bob and Hyde!
Avatar 7:03pm glenn:

i see maya angelou died today.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:04pm listener james from westwood:

Another happy birthday to the mensch at the helm of GTDR!
  7:04pm Doug Schulkind:

Butt cracks abound, glenn!
Avatar 7:05pm ndbob:

Right Glenn - she's gotten a lot of tributes today
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:06pm Gary:

It's the Birthday Boy!
Avatar ♥ 7:08pm hyde:

birthday!
  7:09pm Jill B.:

Good Evening Everyone. Just checking in; probably won't stay too long. Sounds like a fun evening of Mumbai sound!
Avatar 7:09pm ndbob:

.. and Happy Birthday again Doug!.. and hello Jill!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:10pm Gary:

Hi Mom! Will call you after the show if you're still up
Avatar ♥ 7:10pm hyde:

hi Jill B!
  7:11pm Jill B.:

Gary....yes, I'll still be up. Talk to later.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:11pm Gary:

Here's a poster for Maya Macchindra: upload.wikimedia.org...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:13pm Gary:

K.L. Saigal was a huge superstar -- Lata Mangeshkar says that, as a girl, she dreamed of marrying him. Good thing she didn't: He was also quite the alcoholic
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:16pm Gary:

Some of K.L. Saigal's biggest later hits were composed by this guy, Pankaj Mullick ... but here he is in his own voice
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:24pm Gary:

DW Griffith was the guy whose name slipped my mind
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:24pm davex:

Fascinating early stuff, Gary. That poster is by the way actually for the later Telugu film of the same name (hence the Telugu writing, which looks quite different).
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:25pm Gary:

Oh, thanks, good catch, Dave
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:28pm Gary:

This song is from Raj Kapoor's first film, before he teamed up with Shankar & Jaikishan
Avatar 7:30pm ndbob:

This is great Gary - haven't heard very much of this early material
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:30pm davex:

I wonder how many actors ever sang in their own films, something that does not happen very much if at all today.
  7:30pm Doug Schulkind:

Gary, my mom listened to one of my radio shows back when I was in college. On that show, I played this long, amazing nadaswaram duet, and she hated it. She never tuned in again, and that was back in 1980.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:31pm Gary:

Everyone did in the 30s and part of the 40s, Dave
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:32pm Gary:

@Doug: She knew what she liked (and didn't) :)
Avatar ♥ 7:34pm hyde:

this is great, I don't know any of this stuff at all. I'm reminded that I have seen far, far too few Bollywood movies. (True confession: the only Bollywood movie I've watched this year was Veerana: Vengeance of the Vampire)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:34pm davex:

Thanks, Gary - an early case of modern specialization, apparently.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:36pm Gary:

Some of the people who went on to be big actors: Ashok Kumar and Leela Chitnis (who was more of a character actor, but ubiquitous) both sang their own stuff in the early 40s -- I was gonna play some, but decided to dial the dork factor down a wee bit :)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:36pm Gary:

Hyde, I need to see that vampire movie!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:38pm davex:

And there are so many movies out there to see...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:39pm davex:

this playlist can double as a must-see list, I suppose.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:39pm listener james from westwood:

You could spend some time viewing the films from just 1 decade!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:40pm Gary:

I can vouch for all of the films in this particular set, Dave, definitely
Avatar ♥ 7:40pm hyde:

@Gary it's pretty entertaining. It has great sets and creepy lighting. Has a Bappi Lahiri soundtrack, too. Supposedly the Ramsay brothers are remaking it in 3D.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:42pm listener james from westwood:

heh, i recognize that bed music!
Avatar ♥ 7:47pm hyde:

ah, finally here's one I know. love that Geeta Dutt.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:47pm Gary:

Sounds awesome, Hyde -- where did you find it?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:49pm Gary:

This one goes out to Doug -- happy birthday!
Avatar ♥ 7:51pm hyde:

@Gary I got the disk from Netflix. Mondo Macabro put it out a couple years ago. They've remastered for DVD a few other Bollywood horror flicks over the years, but this is the first one I've seen. I need to get to work on some of the others....
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:52pm davex:

It's easy to find many of these films on YouTube, but few of them seem to have subtitles.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:52pm Gary:

Thanks, I'll see if Netflix Streaming has it, too!
  7:57pm Doug Schulkind:

Where's the "like" button on this thing?
Avatar 7:58pm ndbob:

excellent first hour Gary! catch the rest on the archive
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:59pm Gary:

Have a great night, Bob!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:00pm Gary:

Coming up, one of my all-time favorite duets ....
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:01pm davex:

I will need to call it an "early" night myself, and will definitely be heading for the archives very soon. Thanks, Gary, good night everyone - and hope you get a like button for your birthday, Doug.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:03pm Gary:

See you soon, Dave!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:04pm listener james from westwood:

Stellar stuff thus far!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:05pm Gary:

Glad you're enjoying, James!
Avatar 8:06pm forestriver:

This is awesome. I've been obsessed with bollywood since I saw some incredible music videos at a surprisingly good indian restaurant in Rapid City, SD. Thanks for the exposé
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:07pm Gary:

Welcome, Forestriver!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:09pm listener james from westwood:

The funny thing is, most of the Indian restaurants I've been to in NJ play not Bollywood tunes but schmaltzy Subcontinent-influenced piano-driven Muzak. I'd gladly go for the music videos!
Avatar 8:11pm forestriver:

I'll drop a link to one of the ones I saw here: www.youtube.com...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:13pm listener james from westwood:

Thanks!
Avatar 8:14pm forestriver:

You're welcome. It's seriously pop music, but an interesting story and sound nonetheless
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:15pm Gary:

I'll take a look after the show, ForestRiver -- thanks!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:18pm Uncle Michael:

This is pretty.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:19pm Gary:

You wouldn't think so from this song, Michael, but the film is devastatingly depressing (in a good way, though)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:23pm Gary:

The scene in which this song appears involves a dwarf, guys in "Latin" costumes and a whip
Avatar 8:23pm northguineahills:

Forgot to say, Hello. Hello, Gary!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:24pm Gary:

Well, howdy, NGH!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:26pm Gary:

While I can't strongly recommend this film, I can totally completely and absolutely assure you that you'll more than enjoy this scene if you look it up on YouTube
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:26pm listener james from westwood:

Kishore!
Avatar ♥ 8:27pm hyde:

I always imagine that I'll get some reading done during this show, and then I spend three hours googling stuff I hear
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:37pm Gary:

I think I included this song on this Bollywood comp I put together for the blog: bodegapop.blogspot.com...
  8:43pm !.!:

thanks you for all the GR8 shows mny man GARYYYYYYYYYY,,,!!!!!!!
really luv all your work tro find these tracks,,!!
  8:43pm !.!:

PS but why u newver play metal haha ;)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:44pm Gary:

Howdy, !.!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:49pm listener james from westwood:

Love love love this cut!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:50pm listener james from westwood:

Once again, I have no idea where I'd have ever first heard Bollywood cuts famous and obscure if I hadn't been introduced to WFMU. (Maybe in the opening credits of "Ghost World," but I'm not sure I would've seen that film had I not been an FMU lis'ner.)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:55pm Ike:

Just got here. "Duniya Mein" -- what a song -- supremely bonkers beyond belief!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:56pm Gary:

Hola, Ike -- come on in, more bonking gonna happen!
Avatar ♥ 8:59pm hyde:

I'm pro whips and tunnels of pink foam, myself
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:59pm Uncle Michael:

You should visit my basement.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:01pm listener james from westwood:

Wasn't that a Patton Oswalt bit, Uncle Michael's Naked Pink Foam Basement?
Avatar ♥ 9:02pm hyde:

now I'm slightly uncomfortable
Avatar 9:03pm Holly in NC:

Drive-by comment -

Hello dear Gary!
Hello dear friends!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BESTEST DOUG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XOXOXOX
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:03pm Gary:

Holly!!!!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:04pm Uncle Michael:

I'm going to be going folks. Thanks for the Bollywood survey, Gary.

Hi Holly!
Avatar ♥ 9:04pm hyde:

OK, that pink foam scene *is* worth a watch www.youtube.com...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:05pm Gary:

Have a great night, Michael!
  9:05pm sara:

this is lovely, and takes my mind off of the Indian dinner I didn't make today
Avatar ♥ 9:05pm hyde:

Hi Holly! Bye, UM.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:06pm Gary:

There's always tomorrow, Sara!
  9:07pm sara:

yes, or late night cooking of something, thank you
  9:18pm mike east:

A bit later than I should have been but I couldn't find my damn phone. Hey Gary, all!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:19pm Gary:

Howdy, Mike of the East!
Avatar 9:20pm northguineahills:

Been here the whole time, but I'm still indulging in post-Memorial day cleaning, and I didn't even have any guests.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:21pm Gary:

This is not an attempt at a bad joke, but I honestly don't remember what I did on Memorial Day
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:22pm listener james from westwood:

I nursed a cold and proofread an unintelligible book.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:25pm Gary:

The film this song is from was a knock-off of Streets of Fire
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:26pm Gary:

Oh, right; I remember now. I applied for unemployment and helped my GF plant tomatoes on the balcony
  9:27pm walkingtrees:

dang! just joining this now from the west coast.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:28pm Gary:

Hola, Trees What Are Ambulating!
  9:31pm walkingtrees:

what's up gary!
Avatar ♥ 9:32pm hyde:

I secretly love Streets of Fire
  9:35pm mike east:

Just got distracted watching that pink foam link. Thanks, Hyde
Avatar ♥ 9:36pm hyde:

@Mike I blame Gary
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:49pm listener james from westwood:

Outstanding stuff, Gary. Will be winding down shortly for bed; thanks for the great sweep of Bollywood history!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:50pm Gary:

Glad you could make it, James -- always great to hang out!
  9:50pm mike east:

That sync of vocals and tabla is badass
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:52pm Gary:

I had forgotten how awesome this soundtrack is until this week, when I started digging around for stuff to play ...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:52pm Gary:

I saw this film at the Eagle Theater in Jackson Heights ... the theater is now a food court :( ... not that I have anything against food!
Avatar ♥ 9:58pm hyde:

great stuff, Gary, thanks!
  9:59pm sara:

bye, goodnight
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:00pm Gary:
