Today's New York neighborhood called NoHo, wedged between Greenwich Village and the East Village, holds the stories of many people and places that then went on to become deeply associated with the great Gilded Age.The Astor family began their dynasty here in both investment and real estate as did the well-known Dutch-American merchant family the Schermerhorns.Caroline Schermerhorn, who became the famed Mrs. Astor, grew up right here on Bond Street along with many members of her family. NoHo today still contains many remnants of its early 19th-century glamorous past and sites where the tensions between the wealthy residents of the Lafayette Place neighborhood clashed with the growing immigrant population just one street away on the Bowery. Bowery Boys Walks tour guide Aaron Schielke joins Carl Raymond of the Gilded Gentleman podcast for a look at this fascinating neighborhood, which includes stories of the rich and famous, as well as the macabre details of a grisly 19th-century murder that took place on Bond Street that remains unsolved to this day. Take a Bowery Boys Walks tour with Aaron! Find dates to his NoHo tours here and other walking tours here.This episode was originally released in the Gilded Gentleman feed in March 2025. The show was edited and produced by Kieran Gannon.

It was around this date back in 1967 that Led Zeppelin founder Jimmy Page stumbled upon the Jake Holmes song “Dazed and Confused.” The Greenwich Village folk-rock singer opened for his group, the Yardbirds, at the Village Theatre in New York City and performed the song, which appeared on his recently released debut LP. Neither of them could've predicted the chain of events that would ignite a couple of years later when Page co-opted the song and made it one of Zeppelin's biggest numbers.

He was a central figure in that era which included Bob Dylan, Tom Paxton, Phil Ochs and Richard Fariña.Some of his famous early compositions were “Thirsty Boots,” “Violets of Dawn,” and “Close The Door Lightly When You Go”. These songs were picked up by artists like Judy Collins, the Brothers Four, the Kingston Trio, the Blues Project, Sandy Denny & Fairport Convention, and Johnny Cash.  Eric's songs have been covered by many artists, including Bob Dylan, Ricky Nelson, Janis Ian, Peter Paul and Mary, the Grateful Dead and Mary Chapin Carpenter.

TU JAZZ CON SABOR A VERANO.-Sheila Jordan - Portrait of Sheila-JAZZACTUALIDAD.-60 Jazzaldia Marco Mezquida & Iñaki Salvador Dúo Portrait of Sheila es el álbum debut de 1963 de la cantante de jazz estadounidense Sheila Jordan , publicado por Blue Note Records . En la encuesta de la crítica de la revista DownBeat de 1963 , ocupó el primer puesto en la categoría vocal por "Talento que merece mayor reconocimiento". No volvió a grabar como líder durante más de doce años. Según las notas de la funda (escritas por Nat Hentoff ), Alfred Lion de Blue Note decidió grabar a Jordan después de escucharla cantar en el Page Three Club en Greenwich Village , Nueva York , a pesar de que el sello "tenía como política no grabar vocalistas de jazz antes". [ 4 ] [ 5 ] El cuarto tema del álbum, « Dat Dere », muestra la predilección de Jordan por los duetos de voz y bajo. Según la biógrafa Ellen Johnson (autora de Jazz Child: A Portrait of Sheila Jordan ), [ 6 ] Jordan originalmente quería dedicar Portrait of Sheila completamente al bajo y la voz, pero Blue Note rechazó la idea. El álbum recibió una calificación de cuatro estrellas de la revista Billboard en enero de 1963. [ 2 ] La Penguin Guide to Jazz seleccionó el álbum como parte de su "Core Collection" y le dio una calificación de cuatro estrellas (de un máximo de cuatro). [ 8 ] AllMusic le dio al álbum una calificación de cinco estrellas (de un máximo de cinco), con Scott Yanow escribiendo en su reseña: "Jordan suena bastante distintiva, de tono fresco y aventurera durante su cita clásica. Sus interpretaciones de 'Hum Drum Blues' de Oscar Brown, Jr. y 11 estándares (incluyendo ' Falling in Love With Love ', ' Dat Dere ', ' Baltimore Oriole ' y ' I'm a Fool to Want You ') son a la vez vibrantes y evocadoras". En las listas de "Álbumes del año" de AllMusic, Portrait of Sheila es nombrado como uno de los álbumes mejor calificados de 1963. El concierto Dichosos tributos es una celebración de la conexión entre dos pianistas excepcionales, el donostiarra Iñaki Salvador y el menorquín Marco Mezquida. Ambos se unen por primera vez en un diálogo musical para rendir homenaje a los grandes compositores y pianistas de la historia del Jazz, reinterpretando piezas emblemáticas que marcaron un hito en la evolución de este género, desde el ragtime hasta nuestros días. Iñaki y Marco construirán, deconstruirán y jugarán sobre canciones de Duke Ellington, Thelonious Monk, Bill Evans, Herbie Hancock o Keith Jarrett, además de creaciones propias, para ofrecer un espacio de escucha y libertad. Será una singular declaración de amor a los grandes compositores del Jazz, un compendio de tradición y modernidad, un diálogo entre composición e improvisación. Iñaki Salvador es una pieza clave en las últimas décadas de la música del País Vasco y sin duda uno de los representantes a nivel internacional más importantes de nuestro Jazz. Pianista, compositor, arreglista y profesor, realizó sus estudios de piano, armonía y composición bajo la dirección de maestros como los pianistas José Antonio Medina y Jesús González Alonso, o el compositor Francisco Escudero. Se formó de manera básicamente autodidacta en lo referido a la música moderna y el Jazz. Marco Mezquida es, aunque todavía no haya llegado a los 40 años de edad, uno de los músicos más recocidos en la escena musical de la península. Un artista destinado a conquistar cualquier escenario del mundo. Ecléctico y camaleónico, brillante como compositor, pianista, improvisador y director.

In the 1970s, New York's LGBTQ Community was gripped by fear; from a string of grisly unsolved killings known as the “Bag Murders,” to the shocking murder of film critic Addison Verrill, and whispers of a Hollywood curse surrounding The Exorcist. At the center of these intersecting stories stands Paul Bateson, a man described as handsome and charismatic, yet linked to both cinema lore and real-life violence. In one of New York City's darkest chapters, fact and fiction collided, spawning an evil that was very much rooted in reality. Connect with us on Social Media!You can find us at:Instagram: @bookofthedeadpodX: @bkofthedeadpodFacebook: The Book of the Dead PodcastTikTok: BookofthedeadpodOr visit our website at www.botdpod.comFeaturing a promo for Rogue Darkness PodcastWelcome to Rogue Darkness!

A new California congressional map, commissioned by Democrats, seeks to counter Texas’ proposed gerrymandering. The man who drew the map had never drawn a partisan one before. Californians are likely headed to the ballot box in November for a special election on redistricting – and the state is likely headed to court over the scheme.  For 45 years, Blue Note in Greenwich Village served as New York City’s upscale club for jazz.

In which the Mister joins me in reviewing THE POPE OF GREENWICH VILLAGE (1986), from a script by Vincent Patrick from his 1979 novel , the film is directed by Stuart Rosenberg.  The film follows Charlie (Mickey Rourke), a sharp-dressed, street-smart maître d' with big dreams, and his reckless cousin Paulie (Eric Roberts), whose impulsive schemes constantly derail their lives. After losing their jobs, they get involved in a low-level heist that spirals out of control, entangling them with the local mob and resulting in unintended tragedy. As pressure mounts, Charlie is forced to choose between his ambitions, his conscience, and his loyalty to Paulie. The film blends gritty realism with dark humor, capturing the heartbreak, chaos, and stubborn resilience of life on the fringes of New York's Little Italy.  The film clocks in at 2 h and 1 m, is rated R and we watched it on the Hoopla app but is available on MGM+, PlutoTV, Tubi and to rent/buy on Amazon.  Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.#SupportYourLocalLibrary  ⁨@hoopladigital⁩  #ThePopeOfGreenwichVillage #VincentPatrick #StuartRosenberg #EricRoberts #Paul #MickeyRourke #Charlie #DarylHannah #Diane #GeraldinePage #MrsRitter #KennethMcMillan #Barney #TonyMusante #Pete #BurtYoung #BedBugEddie #MEmmetWalsh #Burns #JackKehoe #Bunky #PhilipBosco #PauliesDad #ValAvery #Nunzi #JoeGrifasi #JimmyTheCheeseMan #TonyDiBenedetto #Ronnie #RonaldMaccone #Nicky #Gangster #Action #Comedy #Crime #Drama  @MGMplus  @PlutoTV  @Tubi  @Amazon  #FridayFamilyFilmNightOpening intro music: GOAT by Wayne Jones, courtesy of YouTube Audio Library

Meg Wolitzer presents two stories about the things she loves most: books and words and why they matter. In Ben Loory's “The Book,” a contrarian volume becomes a literary sensation, and alters one woman's life. The reader is Jane Kaczmarek. In “Things I Know to be True” by Kendra Fortmeyer, originally published in One Story, a damaged veteran uses words to hold his life together. The reader is Calvin Leon Smith. And in a special feature, Wolitzer visits a favorite indie bookstore, Three Lives & Company: http://threelives.com/who.html The Greenwich Village icon, which was founded in the 1980s, is a haven for readers, writers, and book lovers of all kinds. Michael Cunningham calls it “One of the greatest bookstores on the face of the Earth. Every single person who works there is incredibly knowledgeable and well read and full of soul.” And you'll meet some of them—and the books they treasure--on this show.

Guest and HostGuest: Cindy Hulej, Luthier/Artist | Website: https://www.cindyguitars.com/Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast & Music Evolves Podcast | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com/Show NotesWhat happens when the story of a city becomes part of the music we make? In this episode of Music Evolves, host Sean Martin sits down with luthier and artist Cindy Hulej of Cindy Guitars to explore how reclaimed wood from historic New York buildings is transformed into custom electric guitars—each one uniquely shaped by memory, material, and imagination.Craft as InnovationCindy's process at Carmine Street Guitars isn't just about building instruments—it's about listening to what the material has to say. The beams salvaged from landmarks like the Chelsea Hotel and John Lennon's former home aren't just structural—they carry decades of vibration, weather, and presence. That physical history directly shapes how these guitars sound, feel, and resonate—offering a kind of analog innovation rooted in human touch and intention.Cindy describes how she and her husband Johnny repurpose old beams, often salvaged from 1800s-era buildings, and transform them into guitars that are not only playable but deeply resonant—physically and emotionally. The aged wood, shaped by centuries of seasonal change, yields a tone that's warm and chimey, with a resonance modern lumber can't match. “You're working with material that's already lived a hundred lives,” she explains. “You just have to unlock the next one.”Creativity Beyond ConventionEach guitar is made by hand, down to the smallest detail. From collaborating with boutique pickup winders to mixing finishes from shellac flakes, Cindy builds instruments that are both sonic and visual statements. No two are alike—because the creative process isn't about repeating perfection, it's about shaping something personal and alive. Whether players come with a precise vision or just a feeling, Cindy helps translate that into tone and form.Reimagining the Past to Shape the FutureThis isn't just about guitars. It's about the convergence of history, artistry, community, and sound. This episode challenges the idea that innovation must come from new tech or flashy trends. Sometimes, the most meaningful advances come from rethinking old materials and techniques.Cindy's guitars are a form of living history—reminding us that sound isn't just produced, it's inherited, interpreted, and carried forward. And, Cindy's path from bartending to building some of the most soulful instruments in New York is a reminder that craft isn't just skill—it's commitment to meaning.About Rick Kelly and Carmine Street GuitarsCarmine Street Guitars, located in New York City's Greenwich Village, is a hand-built electric guitar workshop led by legendary luthier Rick Kelly. Known for using reclaimed old-growth wood from historic buildings across the city, Rick has built instruments for renowned musicians such as Lou Reed, Patti Smith, Bob Dylan, and many others. His approach blends time-honored techniques with a reverence for the city's past, crafting guitars that are as storied as the musicians who play them. At the heart of the shop's ethos is a commitment to individuality, craftsmanship, and sonic integrity—values continued today through Cindy Guitars and the growing creative community within the space.SponsorsAre you interested in sponsoring this show or placing an ad in the podcast?Sponsorship

There's a man standing with a bird—maybe a parrot—perched on his arm. A woman leans against the back bar. You can just make out a bartender. There's a large wooden chest in the corner, chains hanging from the wall, and rough-hewn beams that look like they've seen more than a century of stories. This isn't just a bar. It's something else.

Millions of people in more than a hundred countries march at Pride festivities each year. Attendees come mostly to express support for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans gender, queer and intersex people — the LGBTQI+ community. And although Pride may be on every continent, there's a swathe of countries where Pride still is not freely celebrated. Take Russia, where a court last decade issued a one-hundred-year ban on Pride events. Or Turkey, where police in recent years have been harassing, attacking and detaining activists and members of the LGBTQ+ community. And then there's Hungary, which is inside the EU but out of step with its laws and values. This year Hungary's illiberal prime minister Viktor Orbán said he intended to stop Pride in the capital Budapest, on the pretext of child-protection. Under-18s are supposedly at risk from so-called displays of homosexuality, displays that themselves were banned four years ago. That's a direct echo of Russia's anti-LGBT statute on Protecting Children and Traditional Family Values signed into law by Vladimir Putin more than a decade ago. This month Hungarian police duly imposed the Budapest ban that Orbán called for. And they added a dystopian touch: facial recognition technology. Attendees identified at Budapest Pride could face fines of 500 euros; they also could face neofascist thugs from far-right splinter groups. But Budapest mayor Gergely Karácsony says this year's event is going ahead this weekend just the same. After all, Budapest has had Pride marches for the best part of three decades. It's also worth recalling that Pride was born out of state repression. The first marches were held in the early 70s in a handful of US cities to mark the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots. That name, Stonewall, comes from a bar, the Stonewall Inn, in New York City's Greenwich Village. The gay and transgender patrons of the Stonewall had grown sick of police harassment and abuse, and their uprising in 1969 still marks a key moment for civil rights movements everywhere. One beneficiary of such hard-won victories is Marc Angel, one of five so-called Quaestors at the European Parliament overseeing matters affecting the chamber's 705 members. Marc is a Socialist from Luxembourg and also co-president of the European Parliament's intergroup on LGBTIQ+ rights. For him, this weekend's Budapest Pride events amount to a protest — a protest against bogus limits on freedom of assembly in Hungary, and a protest against an international anti-gender movement, backed by Russia, supported by US ultraconservatives, and aimed at polarizing societies and weakening democracy.Support the show

There’s no moment in queer history more celebrated than the Stonewall riots, which set off the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement. There’s also no event that’s more hotly debated. To separate the truth from the myth, we first step onto the streets of Greenwich Village, a mecca of queer culture in the 60s. By all accounts The Stonewall Inn at the heart of the Village was a dump, but it was also the only place queer people could dance, making it an instant favorite among neighborhood hangouts. But how did one Saturday night at the bar change the course of history? And what was Marsha’s role in how it all jumped off? But wait, before you fast forward to Pride today and fade to the credits, we take a closer look at the organizing that followed the riots and the ways it excluded the very people who were on the front lines, people like Marsha.

Yesterday, The Talking Heads, today, Dylan. The Great Man's Jewish identity has long been overshadowed by his pantheistic status as American prophet. So when, for example, at the beginning of his biopic “A Complete Unknown”, Dylan arrives in Greenwich Village, he is presented as having no history, like a biblical prophet wandering out of the desert. But the London-based historian Harry Freedman argues against this tabula rasa version. In Bob Dylan: Jewish Roots, American Soil, Freedman suggests that Dylan's upbringing in a committed Jewish family in Hibbing, Minnesota—complete with B'nai B'rith leadership and summer camps—profoundly influenced his artistic vision and social consciousness. From his early protest songs to his recent embrace of Chabad fundraising, Freedman argues his Jewish heritage makes him equally Zimmerman and Dylan, a Known Unknown. five takeaways* Dylan's Jewish upbringing was deeply embedded - Far from superficial, his family life included his father as B'nai B'rith president, mother active in Hadassah, Jewish summer camps, and a 500-person Bar Mitzvah in a town with only 280 Jews.* Early career involved deliberate identity concealment - Dylan spent his first 3-4 years creating elaborate backstories about circus and carnival origins to hide his middle-class Jewish background, likely due to antisemitism and desire to fit folk music's authenticity narrative.* Jewish cultural values shaped his protest period - Freedman argues Dylan's focus on social justice and civil rights emerged from growing up in an environment emphasizing welfare and human rights, typical of Jewish immigrant communities.* His genius lay in lyrics, not initial musicianship - Dylan's early success stemmed from extraordinary wordplay and poetic ability rather than musical skill, making him fundamentally a poet who set words to music.* Late-career Jewish reconnection - After his Christian period in the 1980s, Dylan has become increasingly involved with Jewish causes, particularly Chabad fundraising, suggesting his roots remained significant throughout his life.

Barbra Streisand has been a huge presence in American entertainment—music, film, and stage—for more than sixty years. She was the youngest person ever to achieve the EGOT, winning Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony awards by the age of twenty-seven. At eighty-three years old, Streisand is releasing a new album, “The Secret of Life: Partners, Volume 2.” It's a collection of duets featuring Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, and Seal, along with younger artists including Hozier, Sam Smith, and Ariana Grande. Streisand sat down with David Remnick to talk about the record and the history behind it. Bob Dylan, for one, apparently had a crush on the singer from afar. “We were both nineteen years old in Greenwich Village, never met each other,” Streisand says. “I remember him sending me flowers and writing me a card in different color pencils, like a child's writing, you know. And ‘Would you sing with me?' And I thought, What would I sing with him?” Streisand talks with Remnick about her complicated childhood with her mother, who was jealous of her talent; her dislike of live performance; and the classy way to rebuff a come-on from Marlon Brando.

“ It was always in me — my grandparents were almost like these mystical figures, and they did really great things. So I was always like, ‘Why can't I discover more of that side of me?' ” Brian Velasquez Reid is co-founder + CFO of Dear Flor, the first Filipina-owned cannabis brand — bringing Filipino culture to the world, one flavor at a time. And he happens to be co-founder with recent FrieMMd of the pod Lisa Angulo Reid. Basically, Lisa said we had to have a chat with Brian, and we're really glad we did. Brian and Lisa met at a Philippine Society of Boston College picnic way back when in the 90s, or the olden days as the kids call it. Brian's originally from New Jersey, but now a proud New Yorker - him and Lisa have raised their family in Greenwich Village for years now. He actually got his start on some of Wall Street's top firms and became one of the first Filipino Americans to be a founding partner at a multi-billion-dollar hedge fund, as well as lots of other big deal roles in the financial world. Brian also serves as Treasurer of the FilAm Democrats of NY and is on the executive board of the Filipino American Historical Society of Metro New York. You'll enjoy this candid conversation with two guys raising families and coming to terms with our heritage, and what it means for the next generation of American.s And we didn't even talk about punk rock, heavy metal, dungeons and dragons or comic books too much...

I pulled this one from the box the other day—a postcard that's more than just a snapshot. It's a whole afternoon, frozen in place. I've looked at it a dozen times now, and I keep finding new things. The light on the red brick, the ivy climbing the walls, the quiet blur of someone mid-stride. It's not a staged photo. It feels lived in, like if I stood still long enough, I might hear the hum of a saxophone or catch the smell of espresso drifting out from a corner café. This is Greenwich Village, New York City. The card's from the 1960s, and it captures something that's hard to explain unless you've felt it yourself—this neighborhood's rhythm. The front shows a row of artists set up along the sidewalk, their work leaned up against the building as if it naturally belongs there. People wander past with curiosity, maybe looking for something to hang in a tiny walk-up apartment or just pausing to admire. And there's a red station wagon parked at the curb. Maybe the artist who drove it there hauled every one of those paintings in its back seat. Maybe someone was moving in—or out. That's how the Village was. A place of transitions. A place for the almost-famous, the nearly-there, the deeply passionate.

When a college reunion takes a mystical twist, Everleigh finds herself defending her choices to the toughest critic in the world and confronting a crucial question: can she possibly right all the wrongs she was willing to tolerate just an hour ago?About the author Lorna Graham was born in the San Francisco Bay Area and graduated from Barnard College.
