When you think of protest music, you might think of the rock anthems of the 1960's, or rap that turns frustration into elegantly poignant lyrics. For pianist Vijay Iyer, music without lyrics—has always been political music. This week, we talk with Vijay about the release of his new album 'Uneasy,' which in many ways is a protest album. We delve into the political history of jazz, the role of music in protest movements today. For the playlist of songs curated for this episode visit http://bit.ly/oos-vijay/ Show Notes /Vijay Iyer's new album is Uneasy, with collaborators Tyshawn Sorey and Linda May Han Oh. Vijay shared Billie Holiday's Strange Fruit and John Coltrane's 1968 performance at The Newport Jazz festival as examples of performances of protest.Vijay cites Miles Davis' performance of “Ah-Leu Cha” at the Newport Jazz Festival and Jimi Hendrix's “Machine Gun” as examples of powerful political music. Vijay references Cruel Optimism by Lauren Berlant. In his final thought, Hanif discusses Nina Simone's songs “Pirate Jenny” and “Black Is The Color Of My True Love's Hair.” / Music In This Week's Playlist /Children of Flint, Vijay Iyer, Linda May Han Oh, Tyshawn SoreySong of the United Front, Charlie HadenVolunteered Slavery, Rahsaan Roland KirkPirate Jenny, Nina SimoneTranscendence, Alice Coltrane and Pharoh SandersAh-Leu-Cha, Miles at Newport/ Credits / Object of Sound is a Sonos show produced by work x work: Scott Newman, Jemma Rose Brown, and Babette Thomas.

And now for something completely different: In this “mini-sode,” - a solo effort by Mike - we’re swapping out the likes of Geddy Lee and Gene Simmons with names like Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer. Venturing beyond the parameters of our typical rock and/or roll fare, this show provides a brief look at how music has influenced social movements. Spotlighted in this discussion is the work of Bertolt Brecht as well as the role of Jiang Qing in reshaping art and culture during China’s Cultural Revolution. It’s a short side trip down a proverbial rabbit hole, for sure, but it’s also probably an apropos palette-cleanser for our forthcoming talk about Rush’s controversial concept album, 2112.

Hear how happy we were to get to the end. In part, that's because it's a happy ending. In part, it's because we were proud to have reached it. And in part, we were simply relieved that it was over. And there's a bit of those feelings in every ending. Thanks for listening.

Discuss on Reddit ➤ Support the Show ➤ Hallo kinder! We’re going further than we’ve ever gone before for our thirtieth birthday, back to pre-war Germany and Brecht and Weill’s “The Threepenny Opera.” We learn the differences between Verfremdungseffekt and Gesamtkunstwerk, talk about how torturous times can create form-changing art and reflect on how Brechtian theatre exists today. The Threepenny Opera – 1954 New York Cast Blitzstein Adaptation Amazon / iTunes / Spotify  SHOW NOTES If you’ve only ever listened to the OBC, why not try something new and listen to the RIAS Berlin Symphony Orchestra recording starring Ute Lemper? It’s Jimi’s all time favourite. Don’t tell Brecht, but you should REALLY listen to ‘Tristan und Isolde’ by Wagner if you haven’t. It’s pretty darn life changing. After that, continue you on your operatic journey and check out our musical theatre pal Patti LuPone in Brecht and Weill’s ‘The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny’ and then buy the DVD. Here’s the queen of cabaret, Lotte Lenya, singing one of Jimi’s all-time favourite musical theatre numbers - ‘Pirate Jenny.’ Then have a swatch at Ute Lemper, her contemporary counterpart, doing the same in German. But if you want something completely different, check out Amanda Palmer taking her NSFW take on it! Which do you prefer? Why was Bob Dylan aroused? It’s a question we ask ourselves every day. Check out this article to find a bit about why! We’ve not heard from ‘Forbidden Broadway’ in a while, check out their inadvertent pastiche of ‘The Threepenny Opera’ in their ‘Spring Awakening’ spoof! A SMASHING QUESTION Which musical caused the events of this quote to occur:“From the outside, I’m sure it sounded like all hell had broken loose in my dressing room, which in fact it had. I was hysterical … I took to batting practice in my dressing room with a floor lamp. I swung at everything in sight — mirrors, wig stands, makeup, wardrobe, furniture, everything. Then I heaved a lamp out the second-floor window.”

Tonight's episode featured more pirate goodness than the human mind can possibly comprehend. Long lost songs from early Hucklescary Finn and Pirate Jenny, new Mizzen, new Jolly Garogers, and the third installment of Bilgemunky Adventures!!!

Tonight's show not only featured new music from There Be Pirates and B.O.O.M., but we also have Pirate Jenny news, and an online pirate party brewing in Second Life!

After years of pestering, Mizzen has finally recorded a full song, and you can hear it first right here! Tonight's show also featured a previously unheard live song from classic Pirate Jenny.

Song requests flew fast and furious in the IRC chatroom during the recording of tonight's episode - Pirate Jenny, Ceann, Tom Lewis, Musical Blades, and the Ben Gunn Society were only a few of the bands our listeners craved!

Played many favorites this week, including Rust Monster, Pirate Jenny, Captain Marty Scapegoat, and more.
