This week on Beat Motel, Andrew relives his childhood by rolling down Ed Sheeran's hill into a pile of dog muck, and Dr. Sam reveals he's spent more time chasing cheese than dignity. Somewhere along the way, they accidentally remember this is supposed to be a music podcast.The theme? Cats. That's it. Not subtle. Not deep. Just cats. From SpongeBob's snail-pet Gary to the purring sleaze of Queen's “Cool Cat,” we dig into feline-inspired tunes like they're buried in a litter tray.Expect:A semi-academic breakdown of The Cure's “Lovecats” A loving rant about Citric Dummies reviving Dr. Sam's faith in punkThe Stray Cats (who aren't British, but fooled us all)Psychobilly hair, ska that doesn't suck, and why Jules Holland might secretly be a dog personA jazz track from 1931 that the BBC had to rename because it was “too rude” (spoiler: it wasn't about a cat, but we're pretending it was)Andrew's website gets cyber-attacked mid-show (presumably by a Japanese feline overlord), and we waste far too much time translating song titles through every Nordic and Baltic language available. We also discover the only way to pick a cat from a rehoming café is to let it slap you in the face.It's a mess. It's musical. It's got Matt Berry rubbing a snail on his face. It's Beat Motel at its most confusingly brilliant.### Riffs of the week#### Dr Sam's Riff- Citric Dummies - I Am Your Napkin#### Andrew's Riff- vildhjarta - + byta ut alla stjärnor på himlen mot plustecken +### Dr Sam's track choices1.

Stan Freberg starts us off with his version of The Banana Boat song.. 'too loud man.' Freberg was a comedian, musician, puppeteer, advertising creative director but, above all, satirist. Check out his version of John and Marsha. We have a bit of a British Dance Band fest- Geraldo- That lovcely weekend, vocals Dorothy Carless, Ernie Goldin- Making Whoopie, Roy Fox and his band- You Rascal You( vocals Nat Gonella, possibly Al Bowlly) Georgia on my mind, Nat Gonella and his Georgians- Georgia's gorgeous girl. I love Gonella's vocals. Harry Parry- Don't be that way and Bounce me brother with a solid four. Edmundo Ros- Rhumba Royale. Ros Lived to be a 100 and was one of the big promoters of Latin American music in Britain. Percival Mackay and his Kitcat band- Time will tell. Harry Parry played in Mackay's band. Primo Scala's Acordion Band- Hilly Billy medly. Primo Scala was very popular and did 100s of performances on BBC radio during the 30s and 40s. The man behind the band was Harry Bidgood. Harry Roy's Tiger Ragamuffins- Where did Robinson Crusoe take Friday on a Saturday night. Great version. We finish on a favourite. Mel Torme- Mountain Greenery.
A rousing start from Winifred Atwell with Cross hands boogie. Nellie Lutcher- Hurry on down. A wee bit naughty. She's a rather neglected R&B jazz singer and composer. Ruby Wright, the daughter of country singer Kitty Wells, with Boy you got yourself a girl. Jeri Southern- Call me tonight. A torch singer whose career sadly faded in the late 50s. Giselle McKenzie- Seven lonely days. Canadian born, popular in US T.V and musical theatre. Bill Perry's Entertainers from 1927 on a rare Puritan label. The Wisconsin record label only existed between 1917 and 1929. Jane Froman had a long and successful career in the US on radio, T.V, film and on record but what a tough life she had. Severely injured in an airplane crash in 1943 she struggled with pain for the rest of her life. Three band singers- Anita Boyer with Artie Shaw, Connie Haines with Tommy Dorsey and Jean Farrar with Harry Roy. Juthika Roy, a classical, devotional and singer in Hindi and Bengali films. Connie Boswell- This time its love. Professor J Earl Hines and his godwill singers- Get on board little children. Hines was a gossip singing pioneer with his Gossip choir at St Paul's church choir in L.A. He gave vocal training to a very young Etta James. Forgotten songs oldest record, so far. Bluebells of Scotland by Madame Derring. Recorded in August 1906 in London. What an amazing concept, a piece of history 116 years old. It cost me £1. Harry Parry and his Radio Rhythm club sextet with St Louis blues. Vocals by Rita Marlowe. Another singer with very little history. A fine voice, especially for the blues.
Shellac Stack No. 267 follows the fleet with vocalist/pianist Turner Layton.

Three Harrys in this episode. Two from Harry Roy and two from Harry Parry. Our old yodelling friend Harry Torrani sings- Yodelling all day and A yodellers dream girl. I love Torrani's voice and lone guitar accompaniment. Self indulgence it maybe but we have two Tubbs in this episode. Ernest Tubb, the Texan Troubadour and country music pioneer, with the very C&W title- Lets say goodbye like we said hello. Our other Tubb is Carrie. Popular English soprano from the first quarter of the 20th century. Its on a rather warped HMV 12in record. So not able to play it all, maybe just as well! Musical theatre artist, Grace Moore give us- One night of love, actor Wayne Naughton does an amusing monologue- Nonchalant Nonsense, Lew Stone- Shades of Hades and Thompson's old grey mule, Ruby Wright- Boy you got yourself a girl and Nat Gonella- Georgia's gorgeous girl. Edythe Baker was an American pianist who recorded 22 pieces while in England in the late 20s. Here she plays Birth of the blues on a 12in Columbia record from 1927. Ernest Butcher sings I limp as I go along. A very British tramp or hobo song from a 1937 film, The song of the road. In amongst it all is Lenny Carson and whizz kids with Hug me, kiss me, love me from 1950. But who was he and the whizz kids? The only reference to him online is this record. Enjoy and stay safe.
Okay he's a favourite, so its four from Harry Parry, Angry, Lonesome Road, I never knew(vocals: Primrose Hayes, can't find anything out about this woman) and Pontiac jump. We start though with Hot Lips Page and Randy Halls and the Tin fluters. Not on his hot trumpet but brilliant vocals. Much sadness, this record is cracked! Fantastic combination of Joe Sullivan(pictured) and Big Joe Turner next and the brilliantly titled: Low down, dirty shame blues. I have a real soft spot for the unjustly neglected Joe Sullivan. He returns with the flip side, I can't give you anything but my love. Also up Harry Roy and Marjorie Kingsley, Roberto Inglez and Nat King Cole. Another return to FS is Charlie Barnett. Wonderful, joyous fare, Ebony Rhapsody and I like to Riff. A decent copy of the magnificent Munson Street Breakdown has turned up, Utter brilliance from Lionel Hampton. We end with a 1950s song from the Tanner Sisters and a little bit of Culture from Maggie Teyte. She sees out with with Plassir d'amour.
Lets bring the joy to a cold Edinburgh day. Eartha Kitt, Bob Skyles, Harry Roy and the McCravy brothers start us off. James and Frank McCravy are in a particularly joyous mood with Ring them heavenly bells. Brilliant close harmonies, fiddle and banjo. Two from Carroll Gibbons and his Savoy Orpheans. Vocals are provided by Anne Lenner and Lesley Douglas and Edna Kaye. One from Geraldo- All of me, The Rhythm Kings- The girl in the little green hat, The Rhythm Maniacs- Baby, oh, Where can you be. Arthur Godfrey was a massive star in the US on TV and radio in 1950s. He was a troubled, complex character whose 'folksy' image didn't really stand up to scrutiny. That said If I were on a desert island with you is a fun song. We have four records from budget labels. I keep referring to them as eight inch but two are nine inch. Confusing. Well of course the idea was to get the same length of recording on to a smaller record and charge less. We have on the Broadcast label, The Midnight Merry makers- Louise, The Radio Melody Boys- There's happiness ahead(Edison- Bell Radio label. On Woolworths own Crown 9in record, Rossinni's Accordion Band- How much do I miss you and The Radio Serenaders- Lovely to look at. An awful lots of these records had Harry Bidgood behind them. The penultimate record is Felix Mendlessohn, no not that one, the one who had Hawaiian Serenaders. Stay safe, stay positive.
Two folky tunes from Burl Ives start us off. A jolly orchestrated(Percy Faith) version of Oh! Dear! She's wonderful beautiful and the more pared down Bonnie Wee Lassie. Ives spent the 1930s travelling the USA as an Itinerant musician and developed his singing career via the radio. He was also a well known actor, his most famous acting role was probably as Big Daddy in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Old favourites Carroll Gibbons, Len Fillis Roberto Murolo, Archie Lewis, Ted Heath, Bob and Alf Pearson and Harry Roy return. Edna Kaye does vocals for Gibbons. A new Italian singer joins us though, Carlo Butti. We have Miss Lee Wiley, whose jazz singing career was at its peak from the 1930s to 50s. She had a short tempestuous marriage to Jess Stacy, the jazz pianist. Great voice. Big Bill Campbell was a Canadian born purveyor of Cowboy music here in Britain- I'm Rocking to the Rockies is jolly and cheesy. Nowt wrong with that. Ted Wallace and his Campus boys provide some lovely 30s music and vocals. Wallace was Wallace T Kirkeby, manager of the highly prolific Californian Ramblers. Must play them again. Penultimate record is Jimmie Rodgers, Blue Yodel from 1927. So bluesy, great lyrics. Just to prove we like a good mix of music on Forgotten Songs we go out with The Jacques String Orchestra and Berinice by Handel. How Highfalutin is that!
Tennessee Ernie with Smokey Mountain Boogie start us off. Thrillingly its a shout out to the daughter and niece of the Kendrick Brothers- Bob Skyles and his Skyrockets- when I play their track, I'm gonna die with a broken heart. Jean Goldkette Orchestra with My pretty girl stomp and Harry Roy with You and I. Vocals on that are by Jean Farrar. Over the top piano from Carmen Cavallaro, Enlloro. Female vocalists next up. Kitty Kallen, who made a very successful transition from big band singer to a solo career. Kay Starr, who successfully sang Pop, Country and Jazz. Both women had long careers and lives, dying at 94. Les Paul with Mary Ford on multi track vocals and Eartha Kitt singing in Turkish. Jazzy blues from Bob Crosby and his Bob Cats( Tin Roof Blues) Mugsy Spanier (Hestitating Blues) Fats Waller(Shortin' Bread) and Jelly Roll Morton(Oh didn't he ramble) We end with Lonnie Donegan, I'm just a rolling stone. Another great travelling song. Hal McIntyre, who sadly died young, brings episode 42 to a close with the trippy South Bayou Shuffle.
In this extremely-special-but-still-not-quite-as-special-as-we-wanted-it-to-be episode, John and Justin record from the same room! In the same place! Face to face! During a pandemic! We intended to record outside but got rained on. Oh and here's a little behind-the-scenes tidbit: we got up at like 6:00 the next morning to try recording outside again, thinking an episode recorded in the woods at dawn would be neat or fun. That one got rained out too. We were just not meant to record outside. John talks about his underwear again. Stories discussed this time around are an unnamed mystery-solving team of people who faked their death, "Sad Meatloaf," and "Sexy Time Bash." Special appearances by Ben Folds and Harry Roy & His Orchestra. Which reminds me, this episode's got the explicit tag, but it really earned it.
Three dance records to start us off. Two different takes on the accordian - Jimmy Shand with Scottish dance in strict tempo and the far from strict tempo Bob Skyles and his Sky Rockets with 'Swinging with the accordian man.' Then its authentic Canadian Square Dance with the Red River Boys on the Melotone label. Also up: Anne Shelton, Savoy Havana Band, Harry Roy and his Ragamuffins and Sid Philipps and his band and Lita Rosa(pictured). Phylis Robbins, Sheffield's blonde bombshell, we've played her before doing a comedy song but this is a straight rendition of a love song- rather good too. Randolph Sutton from 1930 and ' Put your troubles through the mangle.' To our ears its more social history than comedy. A change of genre and country, two from France: Jean Sablon and Charles Trenet. Trenet sings the lovely 'La Mer.' To take us out we have both sides of a Mugsy Spanier record, 'Someday sweetheart and That Da Da Strain. In between its the pared down simplicity of Jess Stacy, Gene Krupa and Israel Crosby and Barrel House. Top tunes, one and all, in their very own way.

Shellac Stack No. 89 devotes the entire hour to British dance bands of the 1920s and 1930s, from Bert Ambrose to Fred Spinelly. We've got Joe Loss, Harry Roy, Ray Noble, Jack Hylton, and more. Even such American-born bandleaders as Eddie Gross-Bart, Charlie Kunz, George Fisher, Jay Whidden, and Carroll Gibbons turn up!
This is a tribute to a sadly forgotten early 20th century bandleader. A lyrical genius, Harry Roy had a long, interesting career. The most surprising thing about him, though, is how he became even more interesting after he passed away. Click the play button to listen: …just in case the audio player is not visible […]

Welcome to Glenn Robison's Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can't *not* tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and '30s. On this evening's show we'll celebrate the birthdays of Harry Roy and Arthur Johnston, have an interlude, play some cardiac songs, and some songs about ducks (as an added bonus, you’ll learn what a grinnel is too). Enjoy the show! Here’s the complete playlist: Segment 1: Harry Roy January 12 marked the birth in 1900 in London, England of Harry Lipman. You may know him better as bandleader Harry Roy. In the early 50’s Harry disbanded and was running his own restaurant, but at age 69, led a quartet in London's Lyric Theaters show “Oh, Clarence”. He died in London on February 1, 1971. How Could Red Riding Hood – Southern State Dance Band Crazy People – Harry Roy and His R. K. Olians / Bill Currie, v. I'm Silly, I'm Daffy, It's No Use, I'm In Love – Harry Roy and His Café Anglais Orchestra / Harry Roy, Bill Currie and Ivor Morton, v. Segment 2: Hearts Tomorrow is the third anniversary of my little cardiac bypass procedure, but this segment of heart songs is dedicated to KISL's own Steve-o, who along with Rambo, hosts Radio Free Catalina. Take My Heart – Dick McDonough AHO / Chick Bullock, v. Your Heart and Mine – Roy Fox and his orch / Denny Dennis, v. My Heart – Louis Armstrong and His Hot Five Segment 3: Interludes Strange Interlude – Harold White AHO / Will Osborne Blue Interlude – Chocolate Dandies Riff Interlude – Count Basie AHO Segment 4: Ducks You were promised the meaning of ‘grinnel’ (the context will make sense in a moment). In the Missouri Arkansas boot-heel area a “trash fish” is called grinnel, also known as bowfin, mudfish or dogfish. In the spring, the locals would catch grinnel in backwater ponds by spearing them with a three-pronged fork, a practice known as gigging. Band members of a certain band, most of whom were cotton farmers and fishermen, actually had done gigging. Duck Shoes Rag – Grinnel Giggers The Duck's Quack (A Barnyard Jazzboree) / Gilbert Girard, Animal Imitations – Kaplan's Melodists Huckleberry Duck – Raymond Scott and His New Orchestra Segment 5: Arthur Johnston Last week, January 10 marked the birth in 1898 in New York City of composer Arthur Johnston. He began his career as a movie theater pianist and later as a pianist and musical director for Irving Berlin's stage productions. He moved to Hollywood in 1929 and wrote the scores for films such as College Humor, Too Much Harmony, Hello Everybody, Murder At The Vanities, Thanks A Million, Pennies From Heaven and Double Or Nothing. His most notable collaborators were Sam Coslow, Gus Kahn and Johnny Burke. Arthur Johnston died in Corona del Mar, California on May 1, 1954. Buckin' The Wind – Anson Weeks AHO / Carl Ravazza, v. Thanks – Leo Reisman AHO / Frank Luther, v. The Spell Of The Blues – Dorsey Brothers and Their Orchestra / Bing Crosby, v. Just One More Chance – Gus Arnheim and His Coconut Grove Orchestra / Donald Novis, v. THANKS FOR LISTENING!

Welcome to Glenn Robison's Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can't *not* tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and '30s. This evening's show is all about words. I like words, and recently discovered a website called savethewords.org which devoted to rescuing obscure words – works which are so little used that they no longer appear in the dictionary. So tonight, I’ve picked five words from the site as the inspiration for five segments. Enjoy the show! Here’s the complete playlist: Segment 1: SparsileAn adjective meaning of a star. Singing A Song To The Stars – The Clevelanders (Jack Albin) / Irving Kaufman, v. By All The Stars Above – Stellar Dance Band (Gil Dech Orch) Just Like A Falling Star – Joseph Robichaux and His New Orleans Rhythm Boys Dancing Stars – Joe Green (Xylophone) Segment 2: NidificeThe word that sparked this segment means a nest. A Little Dream Nest – Ambrose AHO Spider's Nest Blues – Memphis Jug Band Feather Your Nest – Albert Campbell and Henry Burr Building A Nest For Mary – Ipana Troubadors (S. C. Lanin, Dir.) Segment 3: SarcinariousThe next word on this special save the words edition of the show is sarcinarious, need a clue to work out the meaning? Here’s three: Carry It On Down – Arcadian Serenaders Ain't We Carryin' On? – B. A. Rolfe and His Palais D'Or Orchestra Carry Me Back To My Carolina Home – The Caroliners Segment 4: Quaeritating The rather obsolete verb quaeritate means to ask or question.

She Wouldn't Do What I Asked Her To – Arcadia Peacock Orchestra of St. Louis Segment 5: Vinitorian An adjective meaning of, or pertaining to vines.

Here’s the complete playlist: Segment 1: BreakfastWe’re commemorating the radio show “The Breakfast Club” today with some rapidly rotating records about breakfast. On June 23 in 1933, Don McNeill took over a morning radio program called “The Pepper Pot” and renamed it “The Breakfast Club”. When he started, he was earning $50 a week, but by 1950, the show was so popular, his contract was for $100,000 a year. “The Breakfast Club” was broadcast live from WLS and the Blue Network for 15 years and for its last 20 years from various Chicago hotels over the ABC network. The Breakfast Club's last show was December 27, 1968 and Don McNeill died on May 7, 1996.

Contestants in need of money for medical treatments or other hardships would come on the show and tell their story. If they could answer some relatively easy questions, they could win money, but if they didn't win, they could turn to “the Heartline” a large red heart set up on the stage. It would light up if a home viewer or sponsor called in to offer gifts or money to the contestant.

Welcome to Glenn Robison's Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can't *not* tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and '30s. On this evening's show we're going to fulfill a couple of requests and have several vocabulary lessons. Enjoy the show! Here’s the complete playlist: Segment 1: Zez ConfreyThis request comes from musician and RRR listener Hannu in Finland, who is recovering from some surgery on his Achille's tendon. So, with best wishes for a complete and speedy recovery, we're going to have a couple of segments with Hannu's requests. Charleston Chuckles – Zez Confrey AHO Coaxin' The Piano – Zez Confrey, Piano Solo All Muddled Up – Zez Confrey AHO Segment 2: Tubicinate I don't watch a lot of television, but one show I do make a point of tuning in is Jeopardy. One of the categories last week was “Archaic and Obscure Words” and so, as a public service, here's the first of three vocabulary lessons tonight using words from that category. The first word is tubicinate, an intransitive verb meaning to blow a trumpet. So here are some rapidly rotating records about tubicinating. Troublesome Trumpet – Harry Roy and His Mayfair Hotel Orchestra / Harry Roy, v. Trumpetous – Nat Gonella and His Georgians The OKEH Laughing Record (The Trumpet Lesson) Segment 4: FebrificThe next word in this evening's vocabulary lesson is febrific. It comes from the latin febris for fever and means producing fever, feverish or having a fever. Swing Fever – Frankie and Johnny Orchestra High Fever – Coon-Sanders Orchestra Charleston Fever – O'Bryant's Original Washboard Band Spring Fever – Rube Bloom (Piano) Segment 5: LachrymiformThe last word in our vocabulary lesson this evening is lachrymiform, an adjective meaning tear-shaped, or having the form of a tear. Yes – it’s a segment with tears. Tears – King Olivers Jazz Band Through My Tears – Ralph Bennett Orchestra / Elmer Feldkamp, v. Dancing With Tears In My Eyes – Ruth Etting Segment 5: Frank Banta Hannu's other request was for Frank Banta. My Sugar – Frank Banta I Can't Believe That You're In Love With Me – Johnny Marvin (Andy Sanella, g. – Frank Banta, p) Charleston Capers – George H. Green, xylophone / Frank Banta, piano THANKS FOR LISTENING!

While most of you are not on Catalina Island and can't take advantage of the merchant discounts and offers that go with membership, you'll be supporting community radio on Catalina Island and beyond. I am not paid for the show, nor is it underwritten. I do the show because I love the music and the people, stories and culture behind it. Visit http://www.kislavalon.com/membership. Thanks!
