Whenever The Flood appears in public — as it did at Bahnhof WVrsthaus & Biergarten earlier this month — it positions itself the way most bands do at gigs: in a simple straight line politely facing the audience.Nothing novel in that, of course, just the time-honored way of letting players and listeners make eye contact, feeding off each other's reactions as the music rolls along.However, an entirely different geometry — a circle, not a line — frames the music that has always been featured in The Flood's weekly podcasts.A Table at the Center of the SongsA table in the middle of the Bowen House's library has been the center of the Floodisphere's weekly rehearsal for more than three decades now. Almost all of the nearly 800 episodes of the podcast have been recorded in that room, with a recorder happily stationed at the center of the table and all the players and visitors gathered around it.More than one visitor to The Flood band room, imagining the years of music those walls have heard, has commented on the space's “vibe,” as if its years of music are somehow preserved in the walls and between the very pages of the books on the shelves.Honestly, that's a little too new-age-y for some of us. Still, there's no doubt that as much fun as the guys have at gigs, it never compares to the joy in the music made around that table each week. Here's a sample from last week's gathering.About the SongAs reported here earlier, “All of Me” — the featured song in this week's podcast — was an original “bad boy song” from the 1930s. "I peddled my song up and down the street,” composer Gerald Marks once noted, “and every single publisher turned it down.”The problem was Seymour Simons' lyric. Oh, its moaning over lonely lips and empty arms was pretty standard fare, but it was that follow-up line — "Why not take all of me?" — that publishers found, well, downright dirty by 1930s standards. It was not until a superstar of the day — songstress Belle Baker — embraced it that the song showed promise. Baker first incorporated “All of Me” it into her act in Detroit, where it received seven encores. A few days later, she introduced it on the radio in New York.After that, the song took off. In 1931, Mildred Bailey recorded it with Paul Whiteman's orchestra; it went to the top of the US pop charts. Within weeks, two more versions also were charting, including Louis Armstrong's rendition which reached No. 1 and Ben Selvin's and his orchestra, which hit No. 19. Now, of course, the song's a standard. Jazz critic Ted Gioia believes the definitive version was recorded in 1941 by Billie Holiday. Click here for more of the song's history, as reported in an earlier Flood Watch article.More About That TableBy the way, the table at the center of The Flood's world also was the starting point for the band's first legacy film, 2018's “Flood and Friends.” If you'd like to see the guys reminiscing about some of the many good people who have visited that room over the years, give this a view below: This is a public episode.

Summer 1929 was the pinnacle of a new era of banking, and Charles E. Mitchell emblematized the live-fast-die-young ethos of roaring twenties stock salesmen. As the Great Crash led into the Great Depression, Charlie's ambition brought about his downfall and forced him to go toe-to-toe with one of most doggedly committed prosecutors of the era: Ferdinand Pecora. It's a story that's more timely now than ever.For more episodes: patreon.com/historiumMusic:Hindustan by Bob Crosby & The Bob CatsDogtown Blues by Bob Crosby & The Bob CatsAdagio in G Minor for Strings and Organ by the London Philharmonic OrchestraEasy Opium by Ben von WildenhausBattle of the Species by AntibalasMusic for the Royal Fireworks by HandelOne Bad Motherfucker in His Day by Ben von WildenhausReckless by Brocker WayThe Ox by The WhoPotato Boy by Mac DemarcoTryouts by Brocker WayHeartaches by Al BowllyThe Beast by Dick DaleLet There Be Drums by Sandy NelsonIt Was a Town by Brocker WayGlass Etudes by Etudes No. 6 by Philip GlassEtude by Joep BevingIn Love and Justice by Colin Stetson Happy Days are Here Again by Ben Selvin & The CroonersEnd of Summer Part 2 by Johann JohannssonLess Likely by Trent Reznor1929 by Merle HaggardSupport the show

Episode 7 - The month of February marks LGBT+ History Month in Scotland, and elsewhere. And so, we take a short detour away from our more usual wyrd history… to an LGBT+ history of Scotland. Listeners are advised that the commentary includes some content and language which they may find uncomfortable listening, reflecting attitudes and practices of earlier times. No offence or distress is intended. This is a safe place, for all, and we submit this episode with respect, for all. Regular listeners will be aware that this episode is somewhat different in form as well as content from previous episodes. Usually we like to employ our own sounds and compositions, however for this episode it felt appropriate to source music which reflected the time periods being spoken about, and to generally avoid emotive or creepy sound effects. Therefore, we'd like to acknowledge the pieces of music used and their performers. We would also like to to say that as far as possible we've tried to use music from the public domain, or which permits reuse. If we've erred here please let us know and we will be more than happy to make appropriate changes. This episode featured: Masculine women, feminine men, written by Jimmy Monaco and Edgar Lesie, performed by Frank Harris AKA Irving Kaufman. It featured multiple early and renaissance classical guitar pieces by Jon Sayles, which can be found at http://www.jsayles.com/familypages/EarlyMusic.htm it really is amazing the collection he's put together. There was selections from the Sonata of Scots Tunes by James Oswald, performed by Concerto Caledonia and David McGuinness. It featured Love Your Spell is Everywhere performed by Ben Selvin and his orchestra. And also Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes by Alfred Newman and His orchestra And finally it featured Sun Disco by Cow&Lake, of which Andrew Cowan, who designed the Tales from Wyrd Scotland logo, was Cow, and Nick Cole-Hamilton was Lake. This episode was written and read by Gordon Stewart check out his blog: http://borderlandscotland.wordpress.com/ The episode was recorded, produced and radiophonically designed by Nick Cole-Hamilton: http://www.youbetterrun.media The Tales From Wyrd Scotland logo was designed by Andrew Cowan: http://andrewcowan.co/

On today’s episode:I Only Have Eyes for YouI was listening to Spotify, playing classic Lode Runner online (yes, I am played-the-original-Lode Runner-on-an-Apple IIe-years-old) and falling down Spotify holes, when a song by Timothy Bloom came on. I liked the sound of his voice and went to his artist page to find that I was already following him and had even “clicked the heart button” on one of his songs it’s called The Beginning (Work it Out).I began playing it to refresh my memory and heard the haunting first notes of I Only Have Eyes for You by The Flamingos sampled in the background. SONG CREDITS:I Only Have Eyes for YouComposer: Harry WarrenLyricist: Al DubinBen Selvin, 1934Oscar Peterson and Billie Holiday, 1955The Flamingos, 1959Corrine Bailey Rae, 2010The Beginning (Work it Out)Timothy Bloom2016LINKS:FacebookSpotifyEmail:  spacetimemusicpodcast@gmail.comThe SpaceTimeMusic theme is a sample of the Ana-Tole x Jonah Christian Remix of Ready or Not by the Fugees.

Today's episode is all about bringing a bit of good sounding music to the drab reality of today. I feature the likes of Ben Selvin (as Lloyd Keating), Ina Hutton and Libby Holman.

Well, it’s the year 2020, and that means The Roaring Twenties were officially one hundred years ago! Thinking about this led me to diving into just what people were listening to in 1920. What passed for entertainment? Although the radio had been invented in 1895 by Marconi, it wasn’t until 1913 when an American, Edwin Armstrong invented a circuit that made long range transmissions more practical. Early radios also did not have speakers, until they were later fitted with vacuum tubes that could power them. Until that point the listener had to listen on headphones. The first radio station licensed was KDKA (Pittsburgh, PA.)*. Up until this point not many homes had radios because there wasn’t much to listen to. It was the domain of engineers and hobbyists. The first broadcast of KDKA was the election results of November, 1920 where Warren G. Harding won the Presidency of the United States. ( m.american-historians.org.) Within just four years of this first commercial station, 600 stations had sprung up across the country! (www.pbs.org) A 1920’s radio. Now this is possibly a bigger deal than it may seem at first. For the first time, a whole nation was hearing the same songs, the same news, and enjoying the same on-air skits (at least when NBC, etc. began syndicating). Just a short time before, a rural family in Kansas was never going to hear popular Broadway tunes performed by a full band. Now the whole country could. This literally led to a “collective culture”. In a way it may have helped bring Americans together with a more uniform sense of identity. The only thing that could do that before mass communication was war. In most homes in 1920 there would have been a piano if you could afford one, or perhaps a parlor-guitar. Most families had one or two members who could play an instrument. The phonograph, had been around for some time, and until 1920 the music business was dominated by song publishing firms, not record labels. Sheet music often outsold records. These early recordings were performed live in a room and captured on rudimentary microphones. Things like multi-track recording and overdubs were still some years away. Of note is that Jazz had really started gaining momentum after World War One. With radio and records, it would spread much more rapidly across the nation than ever possible before. This was the first time in history that other musicians could learn music and styles from people they had never seen play! It’s actually rather remarkable when you think about it. Here is a look at the top five songs of the year 1920. (https://tarot.info>music>yr1920) * Al Jolson – Swanee* Paul Whiteman – Whispering* Mamie Smith – Crazy Blues* Ted Lewis and his Orchestra –When My Baby Smiles at Me.* Ben Selvin – Dardenella Mamie Smith. What is interesting, is that here one hundred years later we are embarking on an exact reversal of this “collective culture”. With infinite choices, people are no longer confined to Top 40 radio, and the “Big Three” television networks. Everyone is streaming their own particular favorites, no matter how obscure. You can listen to a Scandinavian Death Metal band one minute, and then listen to the latest mix of the song you wrote yourself on Spotify. You can do all this while streaming episodes of Magnum P.I. from 1981. I cut the cord on Cable some time ago and have not missed it a bit. So the point is, although the internet has made the world a smaller place in many ways, it has also made it a much, much bigger one.

  In this, the penultimate episode in the Njal's Saga summary, we follow Flosi and the Burners as they bounce around the region seeking support for the inevitable legal case against them.  Meanwhile, a slightly singed, but recovered Kari Salmundarson prepares his own case against the burners.  And who better to help him than Thorhall Asgrimsson, the young protégé of Njal himself.  Unfortunately, Thorhall’s got a nasty infection in his leg and the case falls to Morð Valgardsson.  The threat of violence permeates the proceedings as Morð and Eyjolf trade legal barbs and try to out maneuver one another.  Will justice be served as cooler heads prevail?  Or will the hallowed site of the Alþing be desecrated with the blood of those too slow to dodge an incoming spear?  Find out as Saga Thing takes on Njal’s Saga, chapters 133-145. This episode is full of interesting scholarly tidbits and legal minutiae.  We've also got the usual nonsense, like old movie references and bad jokes.   Thanks to George Hook for the picture of the Althing from his trip to Iceland.
