The Beatles Before Ed Sullivan

We take a trip into the past Wednesday as The AIR brings you another very special episode of Beatles Blast.  You can tune in at the website, or just stay right here and  listen to the convenient embedded radio player lurking elsewhere on this page.

At 2 PM (EST) Beatles Blast brings you an hour of music that captures The Beatles before they appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show, sixty years ago this month.

It’s an all-Beatles show that starts with the very first recorded compostion by the band, an instrumental titled “Cry For A Shadow,” which is credited to “Lennon-Harrison.” After that we hear the one song from the band’s pre-fame sessions backing German rocker, Tony Sheridan, where John Lennon got to handle the lead vocals. That’s followed by three tunes recorded live in Sweden in the fall of 1963, and then we have the bulk of a recording of a show the Beatles did for a boy’s school in Buckingham, England, in April, 1963.

This recording sat unlistened-to for sixty years, and once it surfaced, it began making the rounds. We have most of the show here, but in the show I announce that it ends halfway through a reprise of one song. Due to time constraints, I decided to just leave that partial song out.

Here’s the playlist (all songs by The Beatles)…

A New RFC Also Brings Back A Tribute To The Beatles

Tuesday finds another partly-new Radio Free Charleston on The AIR.  Our first hour of  Radio Free Charleston is accompanied by part one of a classic two-part episode of Radio Free Charleston International, that dates back to, 2016 and served as the pilot for Beatles Blast, which can now be heard Wednesdays on The AIR.

To listen to The AIR, you simply have to point your cursor over and tune in at the website, or you could just stay here, and  listen to the cool embedded player found elsewhere on this page.  

You can hear Radio Free Charleston Tuesdays at 10 AM and 10 PM, with tons of replays throughout the week.

Our first hour is a collection of cool local, independt and brand-new music. We open with Sierra Ferrell’s take on the Sam Cooke classic, “Cupid,” which can be heard on the new video show, Cake & Tea, from the Mirror Mirror Network.

Next up we have Custard Flux, from Detroit (but brought to us via the Chicago pipeline). “Right Now Here in Time” is the first single from the band’s upcoming album Einsteinium Delirium to be released on Friday, June 7 via the label Friends Of The Fish (a subsidiary of Fruits de Mer Records, UK). You can check out a cool animated video for this tune HERE.

The remainder of our all-new first hour has new music fro Andy Prieboy, The Paranoid Style, The Broken Relics, Tucker Riggleman & The Cheap Dates, Duck City Music and loads more cool tunes to which you may well groove.

Our second and third hours are an early episode of Radio Free Charleston International, that acted as the pilot for Beatles Blast. This is the first of two parts, and you’ll hear the second part next week, because you can never have too much Beatles.

Monday Morning Art: President’s Day

This one took nearly a month to draw, since I had to work in spurts when my fingers were cooperating, and as a happy coincidence, I have it ready in time for President’s Day. I assure you, this was not planned, and I didn’t even realize it until I started typing the text you’re reading now. The original title was “Memorials in Pencil,” but what the heck, why not be an opportunist?

This was inspired by the view from the Amtrak Cardinal as Mel and I were passing through on our way back from New York last month.  At one point we were stopped for about five minutes, and I snapped a few reference photos from where The Washington Monument and The Jefferson Memorial were perfectly aligned in my point of view.

This was done with my trusty Blackwing Palamino on a new type of sketchbook paper for me that has a little texture to it. I switch back and forth between as many as half a dozen pieces at a time because Myasthenia Gravis affects how well I can grip whatever implement I’m using.  At times I’ll have a couple of paintings and a few pencil drawings in progress at the same time.  Pencils tend to need the most control, so stuff like this is the most frustrating to create, but also the most rewarding to finish. This one I was particular glad to put in the rear-view mirror.

To see it bigger try clicking HERE.

Over in radioland, Monday at 2 PM on The AIR, we bring you encores of a classic episode of Psychedelic Shack, and then at 3 PM a classic edition of Herman Linte’s weekly showcase of the Progressive Rock of the past half-century, Prognosis.  You can listen to The AIR at the website, or on the embedded radio player elsewhere on this page.

Psychedelic Shack can be heard every Monday at 2 PM, with replays Tuesday at 9 AM, Wednesday at 10 PM, Friday at 1 PM,  and Saturday at 9 AM. You can hear Prognosis on The AIR Monday at 3 PM, with replays Tuesday at 7 AM, Wednesday at 8 PM, Thursday at Noon, and Saturday at 10 AM. You can hear two classic episodes of the show Sunday at 2 PM. All times listed are Eastern, so if you’re in another timezone, adjust accordingly.

At 8 PM you can hear an hour of alledged bloopers from Kermit Schaffer, on a recent episode of The Comedy Vault.

Tonight at 9 PM the Monday Marathon presents ten hours to expand your mind with Nigel Pye’s Psychedelic Shack.

Sunday Evening Video: Genesis Live-February 1984

Yes, we’re showing our age again this week. Above you see Genesis (the Phil Collins incarnation, of course) performing live in concert almost exactly forty years ago.

This was during the “Mama Tour” when Genesis was beginning to regain some of their prog credibility after a few years of extreme pop success. We see the band at their commercial peak, live at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham, England.

It’s a fun show that demonstrates their musical chops, and leans a bit more into their proggier music, with many of their hits consided to a show-ending medley.

In this show you’ll hear:

“Intro/Abacab”
Good Evening Chat
“That’s All”
“Mama”
“Illegal Alien’
Audience Participation Time
“Home By The Sea”
“Keep It Dark”
“It’s Gonna Get Better”
In The Cage Medley (“In The Cage/ The Cinema Show/Riding The Scree/ The Cinema Show (reprise)/In That Quiet Earth/The Colony Of Slippermen”)
“Afterglow”
“Drum Duet”
“Turn It On Again” (including popular medley)

Just think…some people who were conceived the night of this concert are grandparents already!

The RFC Flashback: Episode Sixty-Eight

Radio Free Charleston 68, “Axiom Starliner Shirt,” dates from April, 2009, and we bring it to you once again.  This episode of your favorite local music, animation and film show featured music from Jeff Ellis and Marcie Bullock. We also had the first edition of The Radio Free Charleston Financial Report, as well as the debut of the cutest li’l cute cartoon show in the history of cuteness, “Cuticles.” neither of those segments ever appeared in the show again!

Host segments for this show were shot late one Sunday evening in the parking lot at the Nitro Marketplace shopping center. “Why there?” You ask? I honestly have no idea. It seemed like a good idea at the time. The green ball cap seemed like a good idea, too, but it sure looks stupid on screen. The shirt was from the movie, “Wall-E.” This episode also includes the ultimate onscreen URL joke, in case you were wondering which show that one was in. You can find the original production notes HERE.

We recorded Jeff way back in the Autumn of 2007, at the unity open mic. The footage was used in another music program for The Gazz, but by the time 2009 rolled around, we felt it was time to present our mix and edit of Jeff’s song, “In Harm’s Way.” Closing the show is Marcie Bullock, who was from Huntingon but is now living in Memphis and occasionally Disneyworld. Marcie, backed ably by The Steve Himes Connection, treats us to her soulful, bluesy original song, “Can’t Undo,” from her CD.

Pre-President’s Day STUFF TO DO

Valentine’s Day is in the rear-view mirror and some folks have a long weekend coming up, so how about we smack you upside the head with a new batch of STUFF TO DO in and around the Charleston/Huntington WV area (and beyond) this weekend?

As I have been copying and pasting of late, this a good time to remind you that THIS IS NOT A COMPLETE LIST OF EVENTS.  It’s just a starting point, so don’t expect anything comprehensive, and if you feel strongly about me leaving anything out, feel free to mention it in the comments.

Live Music is back at Taylor Books. There is no cover charge, and shows start at 7:30 PM.  Friday it’s Sandy Sowell & Gerry Collyard. Saturday Swingstein & Robin take the stage at the beloved bookstore/cafe/art gallery.

Sunday at 4 PM Lady D brings her tribute show to Bessie Smith, The Lady and The Empress, to The West Edge Factory, at 1040 Vernon St, in Huntington. This is the 20th year that Lady D has been doing this show, and it’s one of our state’s artistic treasures.  Admission is free, but it’s suggested that you reserve a spot via Eventbrite.

The Lady and the Empress is a stage play; a one-woman show written and performed by Doris Fields (Lady D). It is based on the life and music of blues legend, Bessie Smith who was also known as the Empress of the Blues. The performance runs approximately 90 – 100 minutes including a 15-minute intermission and features many of Smith’s most popular songs such as “T’ain’t Nobody’s Business If I Do” and “Nobody Knows You When You’re Down and Out.”

The World Famous Empty Glass Cafe has some great stuff this week  to tell you about. Thursday at 5:30 PM it’s the Helping Hour with Swingstein & Robin.   At 9 PM, Thursday, Evie Schaffer takes over with more live music.  Friday Tim Courts plays during happy hour.    Sunday at 9 PM, Andrew Pauley strolls to the other end of town to play at The Glass. You can check below for the graphics for other cool weekend shows at The Empty Glass.

Please remember that the pandemic is not over yet. It’s still a going concern with the ‘rona surging again. And now there are seasonal allergies, the flu, flash floods caused by flowing MAGA tears, Tony Romo still blathering about a play that happened in the third quarter, more Orweilian bills being introduced in the legislature and other damned good reasons to be careful. Many people who have very good reasons are still wearing masks, and many of us, understandably, are still nervous about being in crowds, masked or not. Be kind and understanding  while you’re out.

Keep in mind that all shows are subject to change or be cancelled at the last minute.

If you’re up for going out, here are a few suggestions for the weekend, roughly in order…

 

Love Is On The AIR

Wednesday we dip into The AIR archives to bring you some Valentine’s Day treats. You can tune into on our sister internet radio station The AIR, as Beatles Blast and Curtain Call fill the air with love with love-themed encores, and later we have special airings of romantic episodes of MIRRORBALL, Prognosis and Sydney’s Big Electric Cat. You can listen at the website, or just stay right here and  listen to the convenient embedded radio player lurking elsewhere on this page.

Wednesday at 2 PM on Beatles Blast yours truly presents a love-themed mixtape, as we bring you nearly an hour of loves songs by The Beatles as a group and solo, along with some terrific covers of the Fab Four’s romantic classics.

Beatles Blast can be heard every Wednesday at 2 PM, with replays Thursdays at 9 PM, Saturday afternoons, and Sunday at 5 PM, exclusively on The AIR.

Then at 3 PM, we bring you a classic show where Mel Larch rounds up an hour of love songs from the stage for a special romantic edition of Curtain Call.  You’ll hear loves ongs from shows like The Lion King, Fun Home, Aspects of Love, Fiddler on The Roof, Anything Goes and more, and peformances by Linda Rondstadt, Michael Ball, The Beatles, Art Garfunkel, Betty Buckley and Ella Fitzgerald, among many others.  Mel’s introductions explain why these tunes are among her favorite love songs.

Curtain Call can be heard Wednesday at 3 PM, with replays Thursday at 7 AM and 8 PM and Saturday at 6 PM. An all-night marathon of Curtain Call episodes can be heard Wednesday nights, beginning at Midnight.

At 4 PM, we bring you an episode of Mel’s show, MIRRORBALL that features the music of Barry White and The Love Unlimited Orchestra.

At 8 PM Herman Linte’s Prognosis will bring us two hours of romantic progressive rock, Assembled, relunctantly I might add, by Herman as a Valentine’s Day mixtape two years ago.

At 10 PM, Sydney Fileen graces us with a love-themed episode of her own, as Sydney’s Big Electric Cat delivers a Valentine to us from the lockdown in the UK, recorded in 2021.

And, in case you’re one of those folks who hates Valentine’s Day, get out to the Empty Glass tonight at 9 PM for the Un-Valentine’s Day Party…

Cool New Music Plus A Deep Dive Into The Local Archives On RFC

Tuesday finds yet another partly-new Radio Free Charleston on The AIR.  Our first hour of  Radio Free Charleston is accompanied by a classic two-hour episode of Radio Free Charleston Volume Four, that dates back to April, 2016.

To listen to The AIR, you simply have to point your cursor over and tune in at the website, or you could just stay here, and  listen to the cool embedded player found elsewhere on this page.  

You can hear Radio Free Charleston Tuesdays at 10 AM and 10 PM, with tons of replays throughout the week.

Our first hour is a collection of cool new, and newly-acquired music, and as a change of pace, we only feature a handful of local tracks, and a wealth of great indie music from Chicago, Nashville, London, North Carolina and all over the world. We do have new local music from Brian Diller and Jim Lange, though.

Opening our show is Chicago’s Cosmic Bull. “Once the Dust Settles” will appear on the album Band Substances to be released on Friday, March 8 and Cosmic Bull will be celebrating the release with a show that night at Chicago’s Gallery Cabaret. We also have a new song from Brian Diller, who is performing twice in Charleston this weekend: Friday Brian returns to Bridge Road Bistro, while Saturday he opens for Chris Smither (whose name I totally blanked on) at the Clay Center’s Walker Theater as part of the Woody Hawley Concert Series.

Our second and third hours are an early episode of Radio Free Charleston Volume Four, where I play a selection of local music by some of our top bands, along with a deep dive into the video archives of RFC.  I’m hoping my voice recovers enough to do a three-hour show next week. I’ve been scheduling reruns of The Swing Shift lately, too, and I’ve got a three-part series on Boogie Woogie laid out as soon as I feel like recording it.

The links in the first hour of the playlist will take you to the pages where you can learn more about each artist and buy their music or find out where to see them.

Monday Morning Art: Trax 24

This week’s art is a detailed pastel crayon drawing on a very large piece of white paper.

Inspired by my recent Amtrak trip, and created using over a dozen photos from said trip for reference, this is a bit of an update of the “Trax” series of digital pieces of artwork I created for this blog over fifteen years ago. This one is a real world piece, and for a change of pace from the small studies I’ve been sharing here lately, this is sort of gigantic. I had to scan it in six parts and then composite them all together digitally. The actual piece is rolled up and tucked away in a large mailing tube for safe-keeping now.

As you might be able to tell, the level of detail varies, as I spent a couple of weeks on this and with MG, some days I had more control than others. This was mainly an excercise in stamina, working on a larger piece and attempting to maintain a consistent style.

To see it bigger try clicking HERE.
