Podcast appearances and mentions of Gus Kahn

Andy Marx — who Phil and David both first met on the WGA picket lines — is an award-winning writer, photographer and musician and a wonderful storyteller with an amazing story to tell. For one thing, he's Hollywood royalty in film, comedy and music as a “nepo grandbaby.” Just for starters, Andy's two grandfathers were the legendary Groucho Marx of The Marx Brothers and the legendary songwriter Gus Kahn whose classic songs you will hear about here, as well as lots of stories for all the comedy Marxists, too.

Here's an album I thought was going to be unplayable when I saw the condition of the cover. I have no idea why the back and front are completely separated. And the bigger surprise is that my dad didn't put it back together with his usual black electrical tape patchwork. But I'm glad I didn't overlook it because of the condition of the cover when I listened to the music it wasn't covering very well. This was some great jazz that I didn't mind listening to several times while I was deciding on the songs for this episode. So get ready to hear a couple of musicians who were around for the birth of the cool in Volume 217: Gerry and Chet.

Here's an interesting combination from my dad's shellac disks from RCA Victor Records. He had several albums made FOR children and several that seem like they were made BY children. Four sides you'll hear is a familiar story of encouragement, determination and pride. The other four sides are pure musical comedy by the master of the art.

It's a stormy night somewhere in Wales, and three travelers are having a rough go of it: married couple Phillip and Margaret Waverton, and their passenger in the back seat, the dapper Penderel. That's when they come upon a house, which is, shockingly, old… and dark. They manage to gain entrance after convincing the mute, lumbering butler, Morgan, that they are indeed in distress, and are soon greeted by the house's main occupants, the elderly Femms, Horace and his hard of hearing sister Rebecca. The Femms offer the travelers supper, but as the sternly religious Rebecca finds it inappropriate, no beds. As they sit down to eat a meal of meat and potatoes, two more travelers burst in – the jolly Sir William Porterhouse and his personal companion, Gladys Duquesne. Or is it Perkins? As the evening wends from dinner to conversation to an interest in the rest of the house, things take a turn for the weird, and soon, all are ensnared in a trap – not just to make it through the storm, but to get out of the house alive.

Zdravo! V poglavju, kjer se zgodi, kar je avtor napovedal, da se bo, je največja zanimivost predvsem to, da je bila fizika precej nezadovoljna z dejanji Arturja in Fenchurch in večkrat besno zmajala z glavo, medtem ko sta onadva v zraku počela marsikatero vragolijo in se ne menila za njene zakone. Še bolj je nad vragolijami, ki sta jih počela na krilu Boeinga 747 bila navdušena gospa Kapelsen iz Bostona. Mi začnemo predigro z debato o šumnikih v domenah (ki obstajajo že od leta 2011, kot smo izvedeli v zapiskih) in vam želimo vesel božič, tudi če ni bil bel. Peli priporoči epizodo podkasta Twenty Thousand Hertz o tem kako narediti zvok za moderno filmsko prikolico (trailer). Sprašujemo se, zakaj je prišlo do poglavja o onegavljenju v katerem smo in kdo je zanj kriv: oboževalci, uredniki ali mali zeleni lističi ali kaj tretjega. Ob koncu se spomnimo in razložimo tudi napravo, ki se ji reče walkman in upamo, da smo jo mlajšim poslušalkam in poslušalcem vsaj približno razumljivo razložili.

Join us every First Friday for recordings at The Monarch Building in Ogden, Utah. SONG "Dream a Little Dream of Me," COVER, by Standards & Substandards on Van Sessions at The Monarch "Dream a Little Dream of Me" is a 1931 song with music by Fabian Andre and Wilbur Schwandt and lyrics by Gus Kahn. It was first recorded in February 1931 by Ozzie Nelson and also by Wayne King and His Orchestra, with vocals by Ernie Birchill. - Wiki MUSICIAN/BAND | Standards & Substandards "We're an easygoing quartet (vocals, piano, bass, drums) that loves to play whimsical re-creations, interesting blends of genres, classic jazz standards, or ironic twists on simple tunes. We'll just as happily perform an upbeat jazz standard as a bluesy torch song, and we'll also blur traditions of funk, pop, rock, and blues as the spirit moves us. In short, we just like playing music as we've reimagined it. It doesn't hurt to have a charismatic vocalist/diva and playful instrumentalists." - Standards & Substandards Website WEBSITE: https://substandards.band/ YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOZ8wFwVuSnLf7fic5Lfu5g FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/StandardsandSubstandards INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/standards_and_substandards/ SUPPORTERS The Monarch Building: https://themonarchogden.com/ Ogden City Arts: https://www.ogdencity.com/707/Arts Roosters Brewing: https://www.roostersbrewingco.com/ CREDITS Producer / Host: R.

The jazz standard “Makin' Whoopee” — introduced in a 1928 stage musical with a performance by legendary song-and-dance man Eddie Cantor — is built around the sassiest words ever penned by one of the great lyricists of the Roarin' Twenties.Gus Kahn was born in 1886 in Bruschied, Germany, son of a cattle farmer who emigrated to the United States four years later and moved his family to Chicago.After graduating from high school, Gus worked as a clerk in a mail order business before launching one of the most successful and prolific careers on Tin Pan Alley.In the next 30 years, Kahn contributed to an extraordinary number of Great American Songbook numbers. Like what? you say. Like “Pretty Baby,” “Ain't We Got Fun?,” “Carolina in the Morning,” “Toot, Toot, Tootsie *Goo' Bye!),” “Yes Sir, That's My Baby,” “My Baby Just Cares for Me,” “Dream a Little Dream of Me.”No wonder that in 1951 — 10 years after his death — Gus was featured in a popular movie about his life. “I'll See You in My Dreams” starred Danny Thomas as Kahn opposite Doris Day as Gus's wife, Grace LeBoy. The film was a serious hit, Warner Brothers' second-highest-grossing film of the entire year.Walter DonaldsonGus had a life-long friendship with his main collaborator, composer Walter Donaldson (who you may remember from our earlier post about their “My Blue Heaven.”) Their first collaboration was “My Buddy” in 1922. They went on to compose over one hundred songs together.In 1928, the pair composed all the tunes for a show called “Whoopee!” based on Owen Davis's play, “The Nervous Wreck.” Included in the score was “Makin' Whoopee,” the winking-est and nodding-est number of the season. The title refers to love and marriage. Quickly, though, "making whoopee" becoming a euphemism for recreational love making. Gus's lyrics begin with a sardonic celebration of a wedding (“another bride, another June … a lot of shoes, a lot of rice”), then moves on to the love nest and babies and responsibilities (‘washing dishes and baby clothes, he's so ambitious he even sews…) but then to affairs and confrontations, possible divorce, a visit to a judge…The 1928 show was successful enough, but oh, that song! In the same year that it debuted on Broadway, it also was recorded Bing Crosby and Paul Whiteman and the next year by Rudy Vallée. Then in the 1950s, after that Danny Thomas / Doris Day movie, the song was back in a big way, with versions by Nat King Cole, Gerry Mulligan and Chet Baker, Frank Sinatra, Dinah Washington, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald. And that isn't the end. More recently, it has been recorded Dr. John and Rickie Lee Jones, by Cyndi Lauper and Tony Bennett, by Rod Stewart and Elton John.Our Take on the TuneHonestly, we don't know how a band that's been around for nearly half a century — one that has a special love for novelty and good-time tunes of the 1920s and ‘30s — could have missed this one.But the fact is it's only now that The Flood started playing around with this classic. Guess it took our newest members — Veezy Coffman and Danny Cox — to open our ears to it. We're sure glad they did. This is a public episode.

Today on the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are airing an encore episode of our conversation with Andy Marx, who has not one but two well known grandparents. Yes, you heard that right. Andy is our only guest so far who is the grandchild of a celebrity. One grandfather, as you might have guessed from his last name was indeed Groucho Marx, of, who else, Marx Brothers. What's more, his other grandfather was songwriter Gus Kahn who wrote standards as “It Had To Be You”, “Dream a Little Dream of Me, ”Makin' Whoopie” and many more. Gus was so famous, Andy heard from none other than George Harrison that Gus was one of his favorite songwriters. We talk to Andy about everything from spending time with grampa Groucho at his Beverly Hills house in the late 70s and helping him preserve a truck full of “You Bet Your Life” episode that might have been tossed had it not been for Andy's insistence they stay. We also talk about a wide ranging number of celebrities such as Elton John, Jack Nicholson, Ron Wood and Marcel Marceau who all inhabited the Marx orbit. We even get into the wild and the wacky Erin Fleming who was Groucho's companion for the last years of his life. So say the secret word and stick around…it's all next on the Rarified Heir Podcast.  

(My girlfriend Karen joins me on this episode) When it comes to love songs, one of the voices I often think of first is Nat King Cole.

Dzisiaj trochę nie o rybach, o największych ssakach na ziemi żyjących w oceanach, czyli waleniach, czyli potocznie mówiąc wielorybach . No właśnie dziś każde dziecko (no prawie każde) wie, że wieloryby rybami nie chcą być. Sprawa jest oczywista. Dla nas, w XXI wieku. Ale przez całe tysiąclecia ludzkość uznawała walenie za ryby. Przekonanie było bardzo silnie zakorzenione. Sam Karol Linneusz ojciec taksonomii, mimo że zdawał sobie sprawę z różnic anatomicznych między waleniami i rybami, w pierwszych wydaniach swojego opus magnum - „Systema Naturae”, przyporządkował walenie do ryb, a to ze względu na wspólny habitat. Zdanie zmienił w okolicach wydania 9, zainspirowany anatomicznymi badaniami Mathurin-Jacques Brisson, francuskiego zoologa. Zanim świat naukowy zaakceptował myśl Linneusza, zanim Karol Darwin opisał teorię ewolucji, która takiej akceptacji sprzyjała, Sprawą zajęli się amerykańscy prawnicy. Otóż w 1818 roku do sądu w Nowym Jorku trafiła sprawa, która miała rozstrzygnąć czy wieloryb jest rybą. Przepisy stanu Nowy Jork wymagały, aby cały olej rybny sprzedawany w Nowym Jorku był mierzony, kontrolowany i znakowany. Kupiec Samuel Judd kupił trzy beczki oleju wielorybiego i nie poddał się kontroli, za co inspektor James Maurice, nałożył na niego stosowną karę. Judd jednak twierdził, że beczki zawierały olej wielorybi, a nie rybny, a zatem nie podlegały przepisom dotyczącym oleju rybnego. Powołano ekspertów, jeden z nich Dr Mitchill stwierdził nawet „jako naukowiec mogę powiedzieć z przekonaniem, że wieloryb nie jest bardziej rybą niż człowiekiem; w dzisiejszych czasach nikt nie twierdzi, że jest inaczej, z wyjątkiem polityków i prawników”. No właśnie - z wyjątkiem prawników. Werdykt stanowił, że tran wielorybi jest olejem rybnym, czyli jakoby wieloryb rybą był. Taka historia. Zoolodzy zoologami, prawnicy prawnikami, opinia społeczna opinią społeczną, a dla wielorybników wieloryby podobno do dzisiaj pozostały rybami czyli fishes. Jest taka stara XIX wieczna pieśń marynarska, forebitter lub foc'sle song jak mówią Anglicy. Niektórzy twierdzą, że pochodzi z Portugalii, niektórzy że z wybrzeży North Queensland w Australii. Niby nic z wielorybami wspólnego nie ma ale kiedy jej słucham, lub kiedy ją śpiewam zbiera mnie zawsze na spekulacje jak powstała. No więc spekuluję: Podmiot liryczny w refrenie śpiewa „Yo ho little fishies, don't cry, don't cry” – „rybki małe nie płaczcie”. Ja zamykam oczy i widzę wielorybnika, powiedzmy w średnim wieku. Statek płynie ku łowiskom gdzieś na północy. Od tygodni w morzu. Wieczór. On umęczony całodniową harówką stanął na chwilę „przed masztem” czyli na foc'slu zaczerpnąć ostatni haust świeżego powietrza. Zatęsknił za swoja kobietą. W dali usłyszał śpiew wielorybów. A wielorybi śpiew nazywany bywa płaczem. A wieloryby nazywane przez wielorybników są do dziś rybami. Zanucił więc nasz wielorybnik z uśmiechem melancholijnym: rybki małe nie płaczcie. Resztę dośpiewał i mamy piosenkę. Ot taka moja fantazja. Pięknie Yea Ho Little Fishes, przetłumaczył na polski nasz narodowy szantymen Pan Marek Szurawski. Nadał jej tytuł „Rybki małe”. I cudownie przed ponad trzydziestu laty zaśpiewał z przyjaciółmi z zespołu Stare Dzwony. Śpiewa ją czasem do dziś.

Today on the Rarified Heir Podcast we are deviating slightly from our format of interviewing the children of celebrities as we are talking to the grandchildren of celebrities and boy do we have a good reason. Today we are talking to Andy Marx who has not just one incredible grandfather but two. Andy is the grandson of the amazing Groucho Marx as well as songwriter Gus Kahn. Whoa. Andy gives us the lowdown on what it was like spending time with Groucho archiving his hit TV show You Bet Your Life and how common it was to have guests over for dinner like Jack Nicholson, Elliott Gould and Marcel Marceau. But just as amazing was his other grandfather Gus wrote such Great American Songbook standards as “It Had To Be You”, “Dream a Little Dream of Me,”“Makin’ Whoopie” and so many others. Want to find out what was it like having Seder with Ron Wood, Ahmet Ertegun one day and  Alice Cooper and Shep Gordon the next? Uh, yeah. We talk song pluggers, tea boys, conservatorships and Tin Pan Alley on the next Rarified Heir Podcast. But only if you say the secret word…..

Y para disfrutar y gozar con nuestro querido flamenco contaremos con la participación de uno de los guitarristas más relevantes y queridos por los amantes de esta música, el gran José Quevedo “Bolita”. El saxofonista cubano-ruso Alexey León nos deleitará con su música de influencia latina y como valor emergente de la escena actual tendremos a la pianista y cantante Marina Alcantud. El dúo Veronautas, compuesto por Ana Sanahuja y Roqui Albero, ofrecerán su fusión música + poesía y desde Brasil llegará la voz de la cantante y compositora Thaïs Morell. El público más joven tendrá su representación con la actuación de Aurora & Latino Blanco. Todos los conciertos serán en directo y emitidos en abierto por la plataforma Instagram dada la situación de emergencia provocada por la crisis del Coronavirus. Con esta propuesta queremos revindicar las manifestaciones creativas, en este caso los conciertos, que pueden y deben mantener viva y cercana a su público la oferta cultural. Agradecemos profundamente el apoyo y la sensibilidad hacia este tipo de iniciativas por parte de las entidades que las han mantenido y han apostado por ellas en estos momentos tan críticos. Acerca del Día Internacional del Jazz En noviembre de 2011, durante la Conferencia General de la UNESCO, la comunidad internacional proclamó el 30 de abril como el Día Internacional del Jazz. Esta jornada tiene como objetivo sensibilizar al público general sobre las virtudes de la música jazz como herramienta educativa y como motor para la paz, la unidad, el diálogo y el refuerzo de la cooperación entre pueblos. Gobiernos, organizaciones de la sociedad civil, instituciones educativas y ciudadanos particulares ya implicados en la promoción de la música jazz aprovecharán esta oportunidad para fomentar la idea de que no se trata tan sólo de un estilo de música, sino de que el jazz contribuye también a la construcción de sociedades más inclusivas. ¿Por qué un Día Internacional del Jazz? • El jazz rompe barreras y crea oportunidades para la comprensión mutua y la tolerancia • El jazz eje de la libertad de expresión • El jazz es un símbolo de unidad y paz • El jazz reduce tensiones entre individuos, grupos y comunidades • El jazz fomenta la igualdad de género • El jazz refuerza el papel que juega la juventud en el cambio social • El jazz promueve la innovación artística, la improvisación, nuevas formas de expresión y la integración de músicas tradicionales en las formas musicales modernas • El jazz estimula el diálogo intercultural y facilita la integración de jóvenes provenientes de medios marginados. Historia y repercusión El jazz es un estilo musical único que se originó en el sur de los Estados Unidos de América pero que tiene a la vez sus raíces en África y mezcla tradiciones musicales tanto africanas como europeas. Antes de la aparición de estructuras sociales de integración tales como el lugar de trabajo, el sistema educativo o los equipos de deporte profesionales, los grupos de jazz era un ejemplo de tolerancia, cooperación, improvisación y entendimiento mutuo. Además, el jazz era un espacio de libertad de expresión y emancipación de la mujer, es un ejemplo del poder de transformación de este derecho humano fundamental. A lo largo del siglo XX, el jazz ha resultado ser un lenguaje universal escuchado en todos los continentes, siendo influenciado e influenciando al mismo tiempo otros tipos de música, hasta convertirse en elemento cultural de mestizaje universal y abierto a todo el mundo, sin distinción de raza, religión o nacionalidad. La música jazz ha dado la oportunidad y la motivación a muchas mujeres para ir más allá del papel tradicional asignado a cada género por la sociedad. El jazz fue una fuerza propulsora del Movimiento de Liberación de la Mujer en Estados Unidos. Así mismo, el jazz también ayudó a conseguir trabajos para las mujeres dentro de la industria musical, especialmente como cantantes. Antes de 1920, la práctica totalidad de música popular era interpretada exclusivamente por músicos varones.

Well the world is a scary place at the moment – I got home from my shorter-than-expected overseas trip a week ago, and have been at home in self-isolation since then.  Fortunately I have plenty of interviews recorded, so I will be able to continue to take your mind off things with more chats with ukulele players over the next few months.

There were plenty of jobs for women in WW2: nurse, ambulance driver, factory worker. But then there were the other jobs, the ones no one really talked about. Spy. Resistance fighter. Killer. These are the stories of five women—Nadezhda Popova, Vitka Kempner, Noor Inayat Khan, Nancy Wake, and Lyudmila Pavlichenko—who fought the Nazis. They terrorized them from the sky, blew up their trains, endured their torture, rode bikes through their territory, and shot them down with their rifles. In a world that threatened to be consumed by evil, they fought back.  *** SUPPORT THE PODCAST! Become a Patreon supporter and get a cool postcard.
