Podcasts about my party

If you grew up in the 1960s or ‘70s, it seemed like many of the songs on the radio were answering other songs on the radio.Roger Miller sang, “King of the Road,” and Jody Miller answered it with “Queen of the House.” Barry McGuire sang “Eve of Destruction,” only to be called out by a group named The Spokesmen with their "Dawn of Correction.” Merle Haggard sang of the “Okie from Muskogee” and drew a prompt reply from The Youngbloods' “Hippie from Olema.”Big NamesSome famous songsmiths also penned answer songs. In 1966, for instance, Bob Dylan's “4th Time Around” was a rather famous response to The Beatles' “Norwegian Wood” of the previous year. And Bob's first hero, Woody Guthrie, is said to have written his greatest song, “This Land Is Your Land,” in 1940 as an answer to Irving Berlin's “God Bless America.” (In fact, Woody originally called his composition "God Blessed America for Me.”)In 1959, one of Carole King's first songs was one she wrote as a reply to Annette Funicello's “Tall Paul.” It contained a classic line, “You can keep Tall Paul / I'll take Short Mort."Meat Loaf wrote “Two Out of Three Ain't Bad” in 1977 as an answer to Elvis Presley's 1956 hit “I Want You, I Need You, I Love You.”And some artists even recorded answers to their own songs. In 1963, for instance, Lesley Gore released “It's My Party,” followed by “Judy's Turn to Cry.” Both of the tunes appeared on Gore's debut album I'll Cry If I Want To.Country artists can get a bit edgy with their call and response. Loretta Lynn's 1967 release of “Don't Come Home a-Drinkin' (With Lovin' on Your Mind)” prompted a quick retort from Jay Lee Webb, called, "I Come Home A-Drinkin' (To a Worn-Out Wife Like You).”And some answer songs turned into multi-player comic discourses. For instance, in 1972, The Last Poets' "When the Revolution Comes” inspired Gil Scott-Heron to wax “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised,” which in turn led to Roy Clark's recording “The Lawrence Welk-Hee Haw Counter-Revolution Polka.”The Flood's FavMeanwhile, in the Floodisphere, the best-loved answer song comes from a pair of tunes written more than a hundred years ago.As we reported here earlier, W.C. Handy's 1915 classic “Yellow Dog Blues” — a melodic mainstay that reaches from the glory days of Bessie Smith and Louis Armstrong all the way to today's trad jazz standard bearers — was actually composed as an answer to Shelton Brooks' wonderful 1913 composition called, “I Wonder Where My Easy Rider's Gone.” In recent back-to-back weekly rehearsals, The Flood has revisited both tunes. First came the Brooks original two weeks ago, then, last week, the guys turned to Handy's dandy reply. In The Flood's estimation, “Yellow Dog Blues” is the best of the pair. There are a lot of train songs out there, but none of them takes its riders quite as far as this one. Come along to where “the Southern cross the Yellow Dog!”More, You Say?Finally, if blues is your bag and you want to extend your Friday foray into Floodery, tune in the Blues Channel on the band's free Radio Floodango music streaming service.

There was a time in American politics, not that long ago, when there were actually liberal Republicans and conservative Democrats, and a broad range of moderates. But the landscape changed, as former Republican New Jersey Governor Christine Todd Whitman talks about in this 2005 interview. She says the GOP is no longer a place for moderates.

He intended to give the ring to his girlfriend Betty. When a police officer showed up, Dupree shot him dead. He then fled to Chicago where he killed another officer and wounded others.Authorities eventually apprehended Dupree while he was getting his mail. They shipped him back to Atlanta where he was executed on September 1, 1922.The song is the second track on the Grateful Dead's third album, Aoxomoxoa (1969). As with most of the songs on the album, Dead lyricist Robert Hunter wrote the words and Dead frontman Jerry Garcia wrote the music.Well when I get those jelly roll bluesThe term "jelly roll" was once common African American slang for a woman's genitalia. The great ragtime pianist Jelly Roll Morton took his name from that very meaning. In 1924, Morton recorded an influential jazz song titled "Jelly Roll Blues," which is most likely what Hunter is referencing here. Debuted in January, 1969 and played a total of 17 times that year. Then dropped until Oct 2, 1977 at the Paramount Theater in Portland, OR, played 4 times that year, this version being the last one of the year. Played twice in 1978, then put back on the shelf until Aug. 28, 1982 at the Oregon County Fair in Veneta, OR (home to the famous show from August 27, 1972 to support the Creamery). From '82 to '90 played at least once a year, '85 was the outlier with 16 performances Only played two more times, both in 1994. This is a great version with Jerry's lyrics and playing both very strong. The 8th song of the first set following:  GO TO ARCHIVE LINK A beautiful Bertha opening but I have featured that song so much, and it is such a common opener, that I needed to go with something else today.  I love it from the 1969 Fillmore West shows where two of the nights the second set would start with DuPree's into Mountains of the Moon before jumping into the fabulous Dark Star/St. Stephen/11/Lovelight suite (in my humble opinion, the best suite of songs ever played by the Dead and certainly the one that best defines the band and the basic foundation that supports so much of their music. Played:         82 timesFirst:              January 24, 1969 at Avalon Ballroom, San Francisco, CA, USALast:              October 13, 1994 at Madison Square Garden, New York, NY, USA   SHOW No. 1:         Tuning (start of second set, stage banter re Jones Gang)                                    Track #10                                    :15 – End Why did Phil do this?  To kill time, he was dosed, adding a bit of levity to the evening's proceedings.  Or there is this:Two nights before the Dead played in Toronto at Seneca College's Field House.  The night before was at Cobo Hall in Detroit.  So they took the 3d off while traveling from Toronto to Hamilton, NY to play this show.  Apparently, the band could not or did not want to try to take their stash into Canada.  Keith Richards of the Stones had just been busted in Canada for possession and no one wanted to take any chances.  SO . . . . it seems they were “jonesing” from something, weed, acid, or whatever. Many of the Deadhead reports of the show in Archive and at the Dead Setlist Program note that the guys seemed very stoned or, more likely, dosed.  They were wearing sunglasses indoors in the evening. Good friend Henry was a student at Colgate in 1977 and attended the show.  In telling me about it, he basically began with the Jones Gang episode.  So it was cool to finally hear the show and hear Phil do his thing.  A great way to keep everybody entertained while waiting for some technical issues to be resolved.  And something that was sadly missing in their later years when basically none of them said anything while on stage, Bobby sporadically with a comment and Jerry I saw speak from the stage maybe 5 times out of 110 shows.  This is the kind of stuff that normalized them and separated them from the button down rock acts that showed up, played the same set list that they had played all tour and would keep playing  When they spoke it was all pre planned, “Thank you (insert name of city where they are playing). And then launched into a killer Samson (even though it was a Friday).  Just part of another great Dead experience and the kind of thing that makes it easy to remember the show even years later.  Everyone talks about the Jones Gang show, maybe more than they think of it as a Colgate show or Hamilton, NY show.  Sure took Henry back.  MUSIC NEWS:      Music Intro:                                    Cold Rain & Snow                                    Goose                                    10.25.2024                                    LJVM Coliseum                                    Winston-Salem, N.C.                                    Goose - “Cold Rain and Snow” (10/25/24 - LJVM Coliseum - Winston-Salem, NC) (youtube.com)                                    0:10 – 1:05 Another Phil tribute by one of the most promising Gen3 (Gen1 = Dead; Gen2=Phish) jam bands on the scene.  Not the first time they have covered the Dead, but it's a damn good cover of a tune that traces its Dead roots to their very first album and even before that.  Jerry loved it.  Phil made it happen and restarted his singing career on the closing chorus in 1982 at MSG.  And Goose nails it here.  They really bring it every time they play.  The jam band that I figure will outlast me! Mickey and Mike Gordon statements on Phil's passing: Quincy Jones dies: Quincy Delight Jones Jr. (March 14, 1933 – November 3, 2024 at 91) was an American record producer, songwriter, composer, arranger, and film and television producer.[1] Over his course of his career he received several accolades including 28 Grammy Awards, a Primetime Emmy Award and a Tony Award as well as nominations for seven Academy Awards and four Golden Globe Awards.[2] Jones came to prominence in the 1950s as a jazz arranger and conductor before producing pop hit records for Lesley Gore in the early 1960s (including "It's My Party") and serving as an arranger and conductor for several collaborations between the jazz artists Frank Sinatra and Count Basie. Jones produced three of the most successful albums by pop star Michael Jackson: Off the Wall (1979), Thriller (1982), and Bad (1987). In 1985, Jones produced and conducted the charity song "We Are the World", which raised funds for victims of famine in Ethiopia.[3] Jones composed numerous films scores including for The Pawnbroker (1965), In the Heat of the Night (1967), In Cold Blood (1967), The Italian Job (1969), The Wiz (1978), and The Color Purple (1985). He won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Music Composition for a Series for the miniseries Roots (1977). He received a Tony Award for Best Revival of a Musical as a producer for the revival of The Color Purple (2016). Throughout career he was the recipient of numerous honorary awards including the Grammy Legend Award in 1992, the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award in 1995, the Kennedy Center Honors in 2001, the National Medal of the Arts in 2011, the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in 2014, and the Academy Honorary Award in 2024. He was named one of the most influential jazz musicians of the 20th century by Time.[1] "I woke up today to the Terrible news that we lost Quincy Jones.. Genius is a description loosely used but Rarely deserved. Point blank, Quincy was the MAN. I won my 1st Grammy with Quincy and I live with his Wisdom daily," Ice-T on X. Dave's Picks, Volume 52 (The Downs At Santa Fe, Santa Fe, NM • 9/11/83)Time to order Dave's Picks 2025 subscription.  I say it every year.  SHOW No. 2:         Eyes of the World                                    Track #15                                    11:10 – END                                     INTO                                     Estimated Prophet                                    Track #16                                    Start - :20 The unique thing in this segment is that it is the first, and one of the only times, that the band played Eyes into Estimated as it was almost always played as Estimated>Eyes.  This is the end of Eyes jam and segue into Estimated.  Very cool to hear it played “backwards”.  This entire Eyes (all 13 minutes of it), is magnificent and a must hear if you are looking for some great Dead jamming to rock to.  On this night, the boys were apparently in a state of mind that let them do a bit of exploring away from the norm for them, if there even is a “Dead norm”.  It sure worked out well for the rest of us.  SHOW No. 3:         The Other One                                    Track #17                                    :52 – 3:00             We've featured this song so many times, discussed the whole That's It For The Other One suite and all of its subparts. This one is the opposite, a 4 minutes 20 seconds version, with the first 3+ minutes just a hard jam.  They only sing the first verse of the standard Other One and then head straight into Drums.  This clip just features the jam with Jerry leading the way.  So clean and powerful, if 1977 is the best year ever for the band, then this has to be one of its peaks.  Maybe not the best of '77 because Barton Hall, but still way up there for nights when the band was truly smoking hot and holding nothing back.  Some of the best post-1970 psychedelic Dead that you will ever hear.  Everyone in sync and making the magic that kept us all coming back for more until there was no more to come back to.  Just buckle in and enjoy the ride. Played:         550 timesFirst:  October 31, 1967 at Winterland Arena, San Francisco, CA, USALast:  July 9, 1995 at Soldier Field, Chicago MJ NEWS:    SHOW No. 4:         Playin Reprise                                    Track #21                                    3:00 – 6:34 "Playing in the Band" is a song by the Grateful Dead. The lyrics were written by Robert Hunter and rhythm guitaristBob Weir composed the music, with some assistance from percussionist Mickey Hart.[1] The song first emerged in embryonic form on the self-titled 1971 live albumGrateful Dead. It then appeared in a more polished form on Ace, Bob Weir's first solo album (which included every Grateful Dead member except Ron "Pigpen" McKernan). During a Bob Weir and Wolf Bros concert livestream on February 12, 2021, Weir credited David Crosby with the composition of the main riff. Weir stated, "David Crosby came up with the seminal lick... and then he left. We were out at Mickey's barn. So Mickey said, 'Make a song out of that'. Next day, I had it".[ It has since become one of the best-known Grateful Dead numbers and a standard part of their repertoire. According to Deadbase X, it ranks fourth on the list of songs played most often in concert by the band with 581 performances. In the Grateful Dead's live repertoire, all songs featured musical improvisation and many featured extended instrumental solos; but certain key songs were used as starting points for serious collective musical improvisation—the entire band creating spontaneously all at once. In this regard "Playing in the Band" was of major importance, second only to "Dark Star". During "Playing in the Band" the Grateful Dead would play the planned verses and choruses of the song itself; then they would improvise and explore brand new musical territory, sometimes for twenty minutes or more; and then the chorus would usually be reprised, to bring the song to its end. Sometimes during these extended "jams", the band would even perform other entire songs, before at last coming back around to the final chorus aka the “Reprise”. On some occasions, more early on than later, the band would play the main song, jam for some amount of time and slide back in for the reprise.  Its performance in this style on 21 May 1974 at the Hec Edmundson Pavilion in Seattle has been cited as the longest uninterrupted performance of a single song in the Grateful Dead's history, clocking in at 46 minutes and 32 seconds.[3][4] It was released in 2018 on the boxset Pacific Northwest '73–'74: The Complete Recordings and as its own LP.  Very cool – an entire album just for one song.  Like Phish' Ruby Waves at Alpine Valley in 2019 got its own album. Then later they might add a song or two in between the main portion and the reprise. Then later they might hold it for the encore the same night the main song had been performed. Then later, they might hold it until the night after the main song had been performed and then two nights later and sometimes 3.  Not uncommon for play the main song the first night of a multi-night run and then the reprise the last night.  Usually during the show, but as stated, sometimes in the encore. Then they might forget to ever get back to it, play the main song again and the whole process would repeat as everyone would wait to see if and when they would finally play the reprise. David Dodd:  To me, the unpredictability of a “Playin” jam was always a highlight of a show. It could get incredibly far out there—completely away from anything—and then, just like that, snap back in, quietly and cautiously or slam-bang, or later, after they'd played most of another song, or a whole set, into the “Playin Reprise.” Sometimes the reprise would never occur. While it usually ran 3 or 4 minutes, this show's reprise went almost 7 minutes with an extended jam before they every got to the reprise lyrics. For Phish fans, think Twe-pri.  For non Phish fans that's the song Tweezer and its “reprise” and that band takes all sorts of liberties with it.  Not so unlike the Dead's style as previously discussed but most famously, at least as far as I know as a still neophyte Phish head, during their 13 show Baker's Dozen run at MSG, Phish played Tweezer the very first night on July 21st to open the second set and then the Twi-Pri finally showed up on August 6th as the second song of the encore after On The Road Again to close out the entire 13 night run. Reprises are great! Played:  648 times (no separate breakdown for how may Reprises were played but I'm sure there were times they never got back to a reprise although one year April Fools 1985 at Cumberland County Civic Center in Portland MA – actually March 31st but called it their April Fools joke even though they did play again the next night, April 1, at the same venue - they played the reprise first and then the main song)First:  February 18, 1971 at Capitol Theatre, Port Chester, NY, USALast:  July 5, 1995 at the Riverport Amphitheater in Maryland Heights (St. Louis), MO  OUTRO                     Johnny B. Goode (Bob – “Happy Homecoming”)                                    Track #22                                    0:12 – 2:08 We've also featured this song quite a bit, a Chuck Berry classic covered by almost every rock n roll band that ever played a set of music and even some that never did.  Its guitar intro is as famous a song opening as any in the genre.  I love this version because of Bobby's greetings to the students wishing them a happy homecoming!  Imagine going to your high school or college homecoming dance and the band is the Grateful Dead.  Now that's a story to tell.  Not sure and I don't think it really matters whether that weekend was or was not Colgate's homecoming.  It just showed that stoned and all, Bobby knew he was on a college campus. Almost always played as an encore or show closer if no encore.  Unlike another Chuck Berry classic covered by the Dead, The Promised Land, which could be played as a show opener, set closer, second set opener, encore, it would pop up just about anywhere. Great way to end a great show.  The boys just blow the walls down on this one.  Or, as commenter RFKROX posted back in 2008 about this version, “Oh, and the Johnny B. Goode is the most incredible rockin' version I've ever heard this band play!! It's the fucking SHIT!!”  I couldn't have said it any better myself! Played:   283 timesFirst:  September 7, 1969 at Family Dog on the Great Highway, San Francisco, CA, USALast:  April 5, 1995 at Birmingham-Jefferson Civic Center Coliseum, Birmingham, AL, USA  - very interesting, not played at all on the final summer tour.  .Produced by PodConx Deadhead Cannabis Show - https://podconx.com/podcasts/deadhead-cannabis-showLarry Mishkin - https://podconx.com/guests/larry-mishkinRob Hunt - https://podconx.com/guests/rob-huntJay Blakesberg - https://podconx.com/guests/jay-blakesbergSound Designed by Jamie Humiston - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamie-humiston-91718b1b3/Recorded on Squadcast

This week, Sadie tells us all about Lesley Gore, the pop sensation in the 1960s with hits like "It's My Party" and "You Don't Own Me." As a teenager, her heartfelt voice and relatable songs made her famous. But she was more than just a singer; she was also a strong advocate for women's rights and a gay pop icon later in her life. Stauney and Sadie explore her journey from a young pop star to a champion for equality, looking at her music, her impact on culture, and her lasting legacy as both a talented artist and a pioneer for women's empowerment!

In this episode — our first-ever "field recording" — we travel up to North London to interview the legendary writer-photographer Val Wilmer. Val takes us back to her earliest musical memories in Streatham, South London, and her immersion in the capital's '60s jazz and blues scenes. We hear about her first pieces for Jazz Journal and her experiences of interviewing (and photographing) the likes of blues singer Jesse Fuller. We also hear about her remarkable DownBeat interview with Jimi Hendrix from early 1968. Val's classic 1977 book As Serious As Your Life — reissued in 2018 — provides the pretext for asking about her passionate championing of the "free jazz" of John Coltrane, Ornette Coleman and others. We focus on her 1966 Melody Maker encounter with the extraordinary Albert Ayler and the unsolved mystery of his death in 1970. A discussion of Val's deep involvement in the women's movement leads us to clips from Ira Robbins 1994 audio interview with the late Lesley ('It's My Party') Gore — and in particular her startling photo-feminist classic 'You Don't Own Me', six decades young this year. Jasper talks us out with his thoughts on Alan Light's 1991 Rolling Stone interview with Queen Latifah. Many thanks to special guest Val Wilmer. As Serious As Your Life is published by Serpent's Tail and available from all good bookshops. Pieces discussed: Jimi Hendrix: An experience, Once Upon A Time In Williamsburg, Ayler: Mystic tenor with a direct hot line to heaven?, Memories of Hoppy: An interview with Val Wilmer, The New Jazz Gets With It (That Means With Contemporary Art), Tempo: Coltrane, Shankar and All That Rock & Roll, Coltrane, Davis, Monk, Mingus, Lesley Gore audio and Queen Latifah's New Gambit.

Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth interview with Randal Kleiser, Internationally Renowned Director  About Harvey's guest: Today's special guest, Randal Kleiser, is an internationally renowned and highly acclaimed director who became a global sensation with the release of his very first feature film, “Grease”, which still remains one of the highest grossing and most beloved movie musicals of all time.    He also directed “The Boy in the Plastic Bubble”, “The Blue Lagoon”, “Summer Lovers”, “Honey I Blew up the Kid”, “Getting It Right”, “White Fang”, “Shadow of Doubt”, and one of my all-time favourite movies, “It's My Party”, and the critically acclaimed play, “The Penis Chronicles”.     For almost 40 years, our guest has been at the forefront of experimenting with technology, digital cinematography and virtual reality, which can be seen not only in some of his feature films, like “Flight of the Navigator” and “Red Riding Hood”, but also at the Disney theme parks, where, for 10 years, his amazing 3-D movie entitled, “Honey, I Shrunk the Audience”, was one of the most popular attractions.  He also wrote and directed the Virtual Reality series “Defrost” which was featured at Sundance AND the Cannes Film Festival.  And for many years he's been a member of the Science and Technology Committee of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.   Our guest is also a much sought-after educator, and he regularly teaches and lectures at film schools and film festivals.  He created an online and DVD course of his former teacher Nina Foch's class, entitled, “The Nina Foch Course for Filmmakers and Actors”.  He received an honourary doctorate from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco.   And if all of that weren't enough, our guest is also an author.   In 2019, he released his first book entitled, "Grease: The Director's Notebook", which is a retrospective look at the making of this classic film.  And now, he's released his fascinating new book, entitled “Drawing Directors”, in which he reveals his unique talent for sketching, using a technique called “blind contour drawing”.  The book contains candidly drawn sketches, personal anecdotes and comments about the work of some of his favourite directors, including Billy Wilder, Robert Wise, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorcese, Spike Lee, Quentin Tarantino, Clint Eastwood, and many more, including my dear friend Henry Jaglom, who recently appeared on our show. For more interviews and podcasts go to: https://www.harveybrownstoneinterviews.com/ To see more about Randal Kleiser, go to:https://www.randalkleiser.com/https://www.facebook.com/randalkleiserofficialhttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm0459170/ #RandalKleiser  #harveybrownstoneinterviews

Randal Kleiser has been an internationally known film director since the release of his first feature, Grease.Kleiser's directorial portfolio boasts a range of works, such as The Boy in the Plastic Bubble, The Blue Lagoon, Summer Lovers, Flight of the Navigator, White Fang, Honey I Blew up the Kid, Getting It Right, Lovewrecked, and It's My Party, among others. For decades, Randal Kleiser has engaged in an artistic pursuit beyond filmmaking—capturing his fellow directors through a technique known as blind contour drawing.In this method, he sketches his subjects without glancing at the paper, resulting in a unique artistic representation.

Jeremi and Zachary sit down with Andrew Yang and former New Jersey governor, Christine Todd Whitman to discuss the problems with, and potential solutions to the two-party system in the United States. Zachary sets the scene with his poem, "Four Questions". Christine Todd Whitman served as the 50th Governor of New Jersey, the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency during the George W. Bush administration, and she is now Co-Chair of the Forward Party. Whitman began her political career in the Nixon administration's Office of Economic Opportunity. In 1993, she helped found the Committee for Responsible Government (now the Republican Leadership Council), a group advocating for moderate positions within the Republican Party. Whitman authored It's My Party, Too: Taking Back the Republican Party…And Bringing the Country Together Again. Andrew Yang is an entrepreneur, author, philanthropist, non-profit leader, former 2020 presidential candidate, and co-Chair of the new Forward Party. After working as a lawyer and executive at several early-stage technology companies, Andrew eventually became CEO of an education company that became #1 in the country. He then started a national entrepreneurship non-profit, Venture for America, which worked to empower thousands of young entrepreneurs to bring their dynamism to communities across the country. He is the author of Forward: Notes on the Future of Democracy.

Harrison Homer-Guy (First Black Grand Marshal Houston Pride) -- Stages LGBT plays -- Naughty poetry reading Aaron Coleman Aaron Coleman speaks with Harrison Homer-Guy about his life and two events he has coming up for Black Pride.  Guy was born in La Marque, Texas, in 1976. He has two sisters and two brothers, and his young mother's parents adopted and raised Guy and his older sister. “They were incredible parents,” Guy says. “I wouldn't change a thing.” Guy attended La Marque public schools from kindergarten through his senior year. “School, for me, was about creative things. I was involved in numerous performance activities—theater, choir, marching band,” he recalls. He played the trumpet and tuba in the band, and admits that he would love to join Houston's Pride Band. “But I'm so busy as it is.” Guest: Harrison Homer-Guyhttps://www.outsmartmagazine.com/2019/06/pride-houstons-2019-male-grand-marshal-harrison-guy/Deborah Moncrief Bell talks with Michael Greco, associate artistic director, about two plays taking place at Stages Theater.  The first is "The Legend of Georgia McBride", Casey is desperate to be the best Elvis impersonator, complete with his flashy sequin jumpsuit. But just like that, his audiences lose interest and his act is replaced by the new drag show in town. With rent overdue and a baby on the way, “The King” takes the plunge and transforms into an all-out queen with the help of his new friends who teach Casey what it's like to walk in someone else's heels. But how will he reveal his newfound love of drag to his wife? With snappy zingers and dance-worthy numbers, this wildly entertaining story challenges our perceptions of identity and classic gender roles with extraordinary humor and depth.The second play is "Drag Wonderettes". You know and love The Marvelous Wonderettes—now it's time for a new twist! Re-imagined as a high drag performance, you'll hear the same 50s and 60s songs like “Stupid Cupid,” “Lollipop,” and “It's My Party,” and get a whole new view of how friendship can be truly marvelous. These queens are bringing a whole new level of fabulous to the stage!Guest: Michael Grecohttps://stageshouston.comFinally we have some naughty poetry.  Aaron Coleman and Deborah Moncrief Bell read some selections.  Be sure to check out these poems.Guest: Aaron Colemanhttp://www.outsmartmagazine.com/2011/07/return-to-love/

The Superhero Show Show #478The Gotham Knights vs Joe Chill The Taste Buds watch Joe Chill get executed on Gotham Knights, plus X-Men: The Animated Series, Superman and Lois, and more!On an all-new, all-different episode of The Superhero Show Show, Katelynn and the Boyz are watching this week's Gotham Knights. They had some pretty nasty things to say about the pilot, but they've been in the TV-watching game long enough to know that sometimes the pilot can sometimes have very little in common, quality-wise, with episodes 2-6.In this week's episode, Joe Chill is on death row and set to be executed tonight, so he has one day to convince the G. Knights (which is short for the Gotham Knights) that he is innocent! Could the patron saint of Gotham crime actually never have committed the original crime in the first place. Could the entire postlapsarian era of Gotham be a lie!?!Next up, it's the Pull List! The Taste Buds are breaking down this week's episodes of Superman and Lois and Riverdale, and they also mention this week's episode of The Flash!Finally, the gang heads to X-Tazmania to watch a nutso episode of X-Men: The Animated Series called Descent! With only three episodes of X-Men: The Animated Series, let's slow things down and show the origin story of Mr.Sinister in the 1830's. Nathaniel Essex is trying to save his wife from 1800's sickness, and trying to use the powers of newly-found minutes to do it. It'll be up to Charles Xavier's great-great-grandfather, a dying Charles Darwin, and some other old ass scientists, to stop him. This episode must have been the perfect solution for all of the children who were tired of their favorite characters and cool action scenes.All of this, and so much more, on an all new episode of The Superhero Show Show!TV EPISODES AND FILMS DISCUSSED:THE FLASH #909 - IT'S MY PARTY AND I'LL DIE IF I WANT TOWatch The Flash on The CW"It's My Party and I'll Die If I Want To" - (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) (TV-PG, LV) (HDTV)HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BARRY; STEPHEN AMELL, DAVID RAMSEY, KEIYNAN LONSDALE AND SENDHIL RAMAMURTHY GUEST STAR - Team Flash throws a surprise birthday party for Barry (Grant Gustin) but things go terribly awry when Ramsey Rosso (Sendhil Ramamurthy) crashes the festivities.

Lesley Sue Goldstein was born in Brooklyn in 1946 but grew up in Tenafly, NJ. She was a junior in high school when she was discovered by legendary producer Quincy Jones, who produced her 1963 hit "It's My Party" – a song which has achieved legendary status in the classic rock cannon. It remained at the top of the charts for two weeks and prompted Gore to record the Top 10 answer song "Judy's Turn to Cry". Her next two singles – "She's a Fool" and 1964's most empowering feminist anthem "You Don't Own Me" – were also Top 10 hits. Additional Gore hits included "Maybe I Know," “That's the Way Boys Are” and Marvin Hamlisch's first hit composition "Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows." After conquering the music charts, Gore branched out and began acting. Her film appearances included “Ski Party” and “Girls on the Beach” as well a performance in the concert film “The T.A.M.I. Show.” Her most notable acting role was that of ‘Pussycat' – Catwoman's sidekick on the 1960s Batman television series – where she introduced the single “California Nights.” In spite of her unrivaled recording and acting success while still a teenager, Gore refused to give up her education at Sarah Lawrence College. During most of the 1970s she remained out of the spotlight; but in 1980 Gore resurfaced when "Out Here On My Own," a song she co-wrote with her brother Michael for the film “Fame”, was nominated for an Oscar as Best Original Song. Throughout this period Gore continued to act on stage and on television. Her life story also inspired the 1996 movie “Grace of My Heart” in which a 1960s bubble-gum singer is shown to be a closeted lesbian. She released her final album in 2005 and came out publicly the same year. Gore also hosted several episodes of the LGBT newsmagazine series “In the Life” on PBS. She died of lung cancer on February 16, 2015 at the age of 68 and was survived by jewelry designer Lois Sasson, her partner of 33 years. Though she achieved only minimal financial success from her recording career, Leslie Gore remains one of the most iconic women in the early history of Rock ‘n' Roll.

Trade Martin is an American musician, songwriter and producer.Grammy award-winning multi-instrumentalist, Trade Martin, possesses one of the most gifted musical minds and voices in the entertainment spectrum.Trivia: Trade Martin's song "Take Me for  a Little While" is sampled on "Ghost Town" is a song by rapper Kanye WestBUT Trade has Worked with the Legends Like Levi Stubbs of the Four Tops Producer, Phil Spector, Been a Session Musician, of famous  Grammy® Award Winning songs, From the Brill Building to Iconic Commercials for Pepsi. Thru the Decades of Music a Mix of Genre's are happening & Trad was a part of the scene Trade Martin's career has covered so many eras of music — as a producer, arranger, songwriter, and even occasionally as a recording artist — that he's almost impossible to pin down as a musical figure. In the late '50s, in a partnership with Johnny Power, he began recording acts such as Johnny & the Jokers and released their work on the Harvard Records label before the two formed Rome Records in 1960. Rome only lasted until 1962, weighted down by its lack of reliable distribution, which prevented the company from succeeding despite signing such talent as the Earls (who went on to score their hits for Old Town Records), Del & the Escorts, and the Glens. Martin usually played all of the instrumental accompaniments for these groups, overdubbing the instruments one at a time. In 1963, following the demise of the Rome label, Martin left the partnership and recorded under his own name on Roulette and other labels through the end of the '60s, and even got an entire LP, Let Me Touch You, out on Buddah Records in 1972. His main activity and success, however, were rooted in his work as a producer, arranger, and songwriter, functions that he has performed over the years in idioms ranging from '60s girl group pop/rock, folk, and electric blues to '70s funk and '80s dance-pop. He has also worked with artists such as Eric Andersen, Ellie Greenwich, Lesley Gore, the Tokens, Ian and Sylvia, Rick Nelson, B.B. King, B.T. Express, Pam Russo, and Solomon Burke. What's more, his songs have been recorded by the likes of Dusty Springfield ("Take Me for a Little While"), Patti LaBelle & the Bluebelles, B.B. King ("Peace to the World"), and Dave Edmunds ("Don't You Double Cross Me"). He has also written and produced a handful of film soundtracks.Martin wrote several film scores. Credits include Made for Each Other, Hail, Stormy Monday, The Inkwell, It's My Party, and West New York.[https://www.trademartinmusic.com© 2022 Building Abundant Success!!2022 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

ABOUT LEE GRANT (FROM TCM.COM)An attractive brunette with angular features, Lee Grant began her career as a child performer with NYC's Metropolitan Opera. By age 11, she had become a member of the American Ballet Theatre. After music studies at Juilliard, she won a scholarship to attend the Neighborhood Playhouse and switched her focus to acting. Grant understudied the role of Ado Annie in a touring production of "Oklahoma!" before landing her breakthrough stage role as a young shoplifter in Sidney Kingsley's "Detective Story" in 1949. Hollywood soon beckoned and she recreated the role in William Wyler's 1951 superb film version. Grant won the Cannes Film Festival Best Actress prize and earned a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination for the role. Seemingly on the verge of a brilliant career, the actress found herself the victim of the blacklist when her husband, playwright Arnold Manoff was named before the House Committee on Un-American Activities. Grant herself refused to testify and the film offers over the next decade were sporadic.Returning to Manhattan, Grant found work in TV (e.g., the daytime soap "Search for Tomorrow") and on stage (i.e., "A Hole in the Head" 1957; "Two for the Seesaw" 1959). After earning an OBIE Award for her work in Genet's "The Maids" in 1963, her small screen career began to pick up. In 1965, Grant joined the cast of the primetime soap "Peyton Place" as Stella Chernak and picked up an Emmy for her work. She earned a second statuette for her performance as a runaway wife and mother who ends up at a truck stop in California in "The Neon Ceiling" (NBC, 1971).By the time she had earned her second Emmy, Grant's feature career had been rejuvenated with her stellar work as the widow of a murder victim in Norman Jewison's Oscar-winning "In the Heat of the Night" (1967). That same year, she essayed a neurotic in the campy "Valley of the Dolls." In "The Landlord" (1970), she was the society matron mother of Beau Bridges and her comic portrayal earned her a second Oscar nomination as Best Supporting Actress. Grant then played the mother of all Jewish mothers, Sophie Portnoy, in Ernest Lehman's film version of Philip Roth's novel "Portnoy's Complaint" (1972). Hal Ashby's "Shampoo" (1975) finally brought her a Best Supporting Actress Academy Award as a Beverly Hills matron having an affair with her hairdresser. The following year, Grant received a fourth nomination for her deeply moving portrayal of a Jewish refugee in "Voyage of the Damned."Her subsequent screen roles have been of varying quality, although Grant always brings a professionalism and degree of excellence to even the smallest role. After striking out as a sitcom lead in the underrated "Fay" (NBC, 1975), she delivered a fine portrayal of First Lady Grace Coolidge in "Backstairs at the White House" (NBC, 1979), was the domineering mother of actress Frances Farmer in "Will There Really Be a Morning?" (CBS, 1983) and excelled as Dora Cohn, mother of "Roy Cohn" (HBO, 1992). On the big screen, Grant lent her substantial abilities to "Teachers" (1984) as a hard-nosed school superintendent, "Defending Your Life" (1991), as an elegant prosecutor sparring with adversary Rip Torn, and "It's My Party" (1996), as the mother of man suffering from complications from AIDS.While Grant has continued to act in features and on TV, she has concentrated more on her directing career since the 80s. After studying at the American Film Institute, she made the short "The Stronger" (1976) which eventually aired on Arts & Entertainment's "Shortstories" in 1988. Grant made her feature debut with "Tell Me a Riddle" (1980), an earnest, well-acted story of an elderly couple facing death. She has excelled in the documentary format, beginning with "The Wilmar 8" (1981), about strike by female bank employees in the Midwest. (Grant later directed a fictionalized account entitled "A Matter of Sex" for NBC in 1984). She steered Marlo Thomas to an Emmy in the fact-based "Nobody's Child" (CBS, 1986) and earned praise for helming "No Place Like Home" (CBS, 1989), a stark look at the effects of unemployment. A number of her documentaries have been screened as part of HBO's "America Undercover" series, including the Oscar-winning "Down and Out in America" (1985), about the unemployed, "What Sex Am I?" (1985), about transsexuals and transvestites, "Battered" (1989), about victims of domestic violence, and "Women on Trial" (1992), about mothers who turn to the courts to protect their children. In 1997, she produced, directed and hosted the well-received "Say It, Fight It, Cure It" (Lifetime) which focused on breast cancer survivors and their families.ABOUT KILLIAN AND THE COMEBACK KIDSIn August, film distributor Hope Runs High will release its latest feature film across VOD platforms - bringing the much-lauded "Killian & the Comeback Kids" to a national audience outside of its 30 city theatrical release. For composer-writer-director Taylor A. Purdee, "Killian & the Comeback Kids" is a passion project that has united a dynamic team of creatives both onscreen and off. Concurrently with digital release, the film's screenplay will be preserved by The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' permanent archive.With the film's initial theatrical releases, Purdee became the youngest director in 2020 and 2021 to have a film playing in major American exhibition circuits. He is also the first bi-racial director-star of African American descent to have a film theatrically released in the United States in the 21st century.'Killian' is the story of a young mixed-race musician forced to return to his rural hometown, burdened by the expense of his college degree. A chance encounter with a childhood acquaintance takes his summer in a new direction as the pair enlist a rag-tag band of other struggling locals to play a music festival coming to their once-prosperous steel town. With youthful ambition and an unflagging passion for folk-rock, Killian and the band take a shot at uniting their divided community and setting the stage for their futures.Purdee discusses the film's resonance in the current moment. "Folk music has always represented three things: a lot of self-determination, social responsibility, and a DIY spirit that happens to run through most younger generations. In a moment where the culture seems increasingly divided, when higher education could be viewed as more of a corporate scheme than a ticket to prosperity, and when one-third of our young people remain suspended in an elongated adolescence, our view of professional and personal identity is worth reimagining."The film's music by Purdee and his The Cumberland Kids bandmate Liam Higgins garnered Oscar buzz, and Purdee's original screenplay will be preserved in The Academy's permanent archive. The film stars Taylor A. Purdee, Kassie DePaiva, Nathan Purdee, John Donchak, Shannon O'Boyle, Shane Andries, Emily Mest, Yael Elisheva, and Andrew O'Shanick, and features Maddi Jane and Academy Award-winner Lee Grant."With a cast built of new faces, street musicians, Broadway mainstays, daytime superstars, new media darlings, and a living legend of classic Hollywood, our disruptive star power is the perfect mixture for an unconventional film in unconventional times."SYNOPSIS: Killian & the Comeback Kids is the story of a young mixed race musician forced to return to his rural hometown after an expensive college degree. A chance encounter with a childhood acquaintance gives the summer new direction. Together they throw together a rag-tag band of other struggling locals for one shot to play a music festival coming to their once prosperous steel town. Armed with only folk-rock, Killian and the band hope to unite the community - - if just for one night. A little musical at the cross roads of small town America and a burgeoning youth culture only just beginning to find its voice.Here's the trailer:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rI6n2nkk8V0
