Podcast appearances and mentions of ralph murphy

For this Paramount 1945 episode, we look at a couple of male melodramas: The Man in Half Moon Street, a Gothic B-movie starring Nils Asther, "the most beautiful man who ever lived," according to Elise, as a scientist who becomes unscrupulous in his pursuit of eternal youth, and Salty O'Rourke, a Raoul Walsh-directed hit starring Alan Ladd as a racetrack gambler who manipulates an unruly young jockey. The movies also boast fairly substantial love interest parts for Helen Walker as a socialite who sympathizes with Asther's Ubermensch impulses and Gail Russell as a schoolteacher who's caught up in Ladd's schemes. We dive into the question of how to create audience sympathy for a villain-protagonist and the curious nature of the Ladd phenomenon.  Time Codes: 0h 00m 45s:      THE MAN IN HALF MOON STREET [dir.

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 April Wine es una banda de rock canadiense formada en 1969 y con sede en Halifax , Nueva Escocia . Dirigida por el cantante, guitarrista y compositor Myles Goodwin desde sus inicios, el primer éxito de April Wine llegó con su segundo álbum, On Record (1972), que alcanzó el top 40 en Canadá y produjo dos sencillos exitosos: " Bad Side of the Moon ", un éxito entre los 20 primeros en Canadá; y " Podrías haber sido una dama ", canción número 2 en Canadá. La banda continuaría disfrutando del éxito internacional durante el resto de la década de 1970 y principios de la de 1980, lanzando más de 20 álbumes.Aunque April Wine comenzó oficialmente a fines de 1969 en Waverley , Nueva Escocia , sus raíces se remontan a St. John's, Terranova y Labrador, en 1967/68, donde los hermanos David y Ritchie Henman crecieron tocando juntos antes de mudarse a Nueva Escocia.Tres de los miembros fundadores, David Henman (guitarra), Ritchie Henman (batería) y su primo Jim Henman (bajo), estaban originalmente en una banda llamada Prism (no la famosa). Después de un breve descanso para asistir a la universidad, el trío se reformó con Myles Goodwyn en la voz principal y la guitarra. Goodwyn había tocado previamente con Jim Henman en un grupo llamado Termites. David Henman bautizó al nuevo grupo como "April Wine". Se dieron cuenta de que Halifax no brindaba oportunidades para tocar y grabar, por lo que enviaron una cinta de demostración a Aquarius Records en Montreal. Los gerentes de Aquarius, Terry Flood y Donald K. Tarlton , devolvieron una carta de rechazo, pero la banda la confundió con una invitación. El 1 de abril de 1970, April Wine fue a Montreal, trayendo consigo sus instrumentos y $100 en efectivo; Flood y Tarlton fueron persuadidos de firmar un contrato con la banda.Fueron instalados en un chalet y reservados en un club de comedia local, Café Andre. Pasaron los siguientes cinco meses recorriendo el este de Canadá con Mashmakhan .La banda grabó y lanzó su álbum debut homónimo April Wine en septiembre de 1971.El álbum incluía un sencillo, " Fast Train ", que fue un éxito entre los 40 primeros en Canadá y alcanzó el puesto 38 en RPM . Tabla de solteros ,Estableció a Miles Goodwyn como el principal compositor de April Wine. El álbum no se vendió bien, pero el éxito del sencillo llevó al sello de la banda a pedir un segundo álbum. Jim Henman dejó la banda en el otoño de 1971 y fue reemplazado por Jim Clench .Mientras tanto, la banda pasó 1971 de gira por el circuito universitario, con la excepción del 30 de julio, cuando abrieron en la Place Des Nations de Montreal para The Guess Who .. 1972 fue muy similar, aunque comenzaron a tocar en lugares más grandes y abrieron para algunos actos más grandes, como Ike & Tina Turner , Jethro Tull , Badfinger y Stevie Wonder .Bajo la dirección del productor Ralph Murphy ,April Wine grabó su segundo álbum, On Record en 1972. El primer sencillo fue una versión de la canción de Hot Chocolate "You Could Have Been a Lady". El disco fue un éxito comercial, alcanzando el número dos durante una sola semana en las listas canadienses de RPM, además de romper la lista Billboard Hot 100 en los Estados Unidos , donde permaneció durante 11 semanas, alcanzando el puesto 32. A segundo sencillo, una versión de "Bad Side of the Moon" de Elton John y Bernie Taupin, también tuvo mucha difusión en la radio canadiense y fue un éxito menor en los EE. UU. Ambos temas siguen siendo básicos en las estaciones de radio de rock clásico en Canadá. On Record obtuvo la certificación Gold en Canadá y la banda, junto con Murphy, regresaron al estudio. Mientras la banda grababa su tercer álbum, David y Ritchie Henman se marcharon. Goodwyn y Clench realizaron una audición y los reemplazos fueron el baterista Jerry Mercer (anteriormente de Mashmakhan ) y el guitarrista Gary Moffet. Terminaron el álbum, Electric Jewels , que contenía las canciones "Weeping Widow", "Just Like That" y "Lady Run, Lady Hide", que permanecerían en las listas de canciones de April Wine durante muchos años. En apoyo de este álbum, la banda se embarcó en el Electric Adventure Tour donde casi todos los estadios canadienses o salas de conciertos con capacidad para más de 2500 personas vieron tocar a la banda.La gira también contó con un gran espectáculo de luces y pirotecnia.Las giras resultaron exitosas;y Dino Danelli de The Rascals asistieron a un concierto de 1974 en Massey Hall y quedaron tan impresionados que se ofrecieron a grabar y producir un álbum en vivo de la banda. La sesión de grabación de una noche fue algo así como una empresa apresurada; querían que el álbum se lanzara al final de la gira. Goodwyn no estaba contento con el sonido, pero April Wine Live se convirtió en oro .El quinto lanzamiento de la banda, Stand Back de 1975 , fue doble platino en Canadá, gracias al éxito de los sencillos "Tonight Is A Wonderful Time To Fall In Love" y "I Wouldn't Want To Lose Your Love".April Wine se fue de gira con Heart , luego Thundermug .Después de la gira, Jim Clench se fue para unirse a Bachman-Turner Overdrive ;fue reemplazado por Steve Lang . El siguiente lanzamiento de la banda, en 1976, fue The Whole World's Goin' Crazy . Fue el primer lanzamiento de April Wine en alcanzar el estado de platino basado solo en pedidos de ventas avanzados.El álbum contenía la popular canción principal, así como un sencillo de éxito, la balada "Like A Lover, Like A Song". Su sexto álbum, Forever for Now , fue otro vendedor de platino y contenía el sencillo más grande de la banda hasta la fecha, "You Won't Dance With Me".El 4 y 5 de marzo de 1977, April Wine fue contratada para tocar en un concierto benéfico en el famoso El Mocambo Club de Toronto. El co-cabeza de cartel en el cartel era una banda llamada "The Cockroaches", que resultó ser The Rolling Stones . El seudónimo era un secreto mal guardado y grandes multitudes asistieron al evento. La actuación de April Wine fue capturada y lanzada como el álbum Live at the El Mocambo . Luego, la banda tuvo su primera oportunidad de hacer una gira por los Estados Unidos, abriendo para The Rolling Stones, Styx y Rush . También en 1977, Brian Greenway , último miembro de The Dudes (la nueva banda de Henmans) fue contratado como tercer guitarrista y co-vocalista. Su incorporación le dio a April Wine un poderoso ataque de tres guitarras que haría que su sonido de rock duro. Esto también permitió a Goodwyn cambiar a teclados para baladas. También firmaron con Capitol Records (además de Aquarius).1978 vio un éxito canadiense continuo y el comienzo del éxito internacional. El séptimo álbum de la banda, y el primero con Capitol, fue First Glance , que tuvo un impacto inmediato y los sencillos "Let Yourself Go" y "Get Ready For Love" triunfaron en la radio canadiense.Fue el tercer sencillo, el estridente "Roller", lo que atrajo a la banda a un gran atractivo en toda América del Norte; permaneció en el Billboard Hot 100 durante once semanas. First Glance permaneció en la lista de álbumes de Billboard durante muchas semanas, lo que lo convirtió en el primer disco de oro de April Wine fuera de Canadá. Las giras constantes ayudaron a impulsar a la banda a un mayor éxito, ya que los estadounidenses adoptaron el rock duro de esta "nueva" banda de Canadá, en 1978,, Starcastle y Teaze y, en julio, tocó en un concierto con los Rolling Stones, Journey y Atlanta Rhythm Section .Tras la popularidad de First Glance , April Wine lanzó Harder... Faster en 1979. "Say Hello" y "I Like to Rock" fueron éxitos populares en ambos lados de la frontera y Harder... Faster resultó ser otro más . lanzamiento multi-platino para la banda. Permanecería en la lista de álbumes principales de Billboard durante 40 semanas. 1979 lo pasó de gira con Styx , Rush , Toto , Boston , Squeeze y Blue Öyster Cult .Por ahora, la banda había acumulado suficientes éxitos que Aquarius pudo lanzar el álbum Greatest Hits . En 1979, elBBC lanzó In Concert para distribución internacional; En 1981, Aquarius lanzó otro álbum recopilatorio, The Best of April Wine Rock Ballads . The Nature of the Beast ,fue lanzado en enero de 1981, y gracias a la popularidad de los exitosos sencillos " Just Between You and Me " y la versión de la banda de la canción de Lorence Hud "Sign of the Gypsy Queen", el éxito del álbum éxito multiplatino en Canadá, y fue el primer álbum de April Wine en alcanzar el estatus de platino a nivel internacional. April Wine se embarcó en una extensa gira de apoyo, actuando ante las multitudes más grandes de su historia. Además de una agenda repleta de conciertos en solitario, realizaron una gira con Diamond Head , Harlequin , Krokus y Franke and the Knockouts , tocaron cinco conciertos con Loverboy y viajaron a Alemania para tocar en un concierto con Neil Young ., Jethro Tull, Michael Schenker Group (MSG) y King Crimson . La banda luego hizo una pausa de dieciocho meses. En julio de 1982, April Wine lanzó su décimo álbum de estudio, Power Play . El álbum incluía los sencillos "Enough is Enough", "If You See Kay" y "Anything You Want, You Got It". Este último se convertiría en el número de apertura de la banda en la gira de apoyo, mientras que el video "Enough is Enough"comenzó a recibir rotación frecuente en MTV . A pesar de las ventas decentes, Power Play no recibió la misma aclamación de la crítica que habían recibido los dos álbumes anteriores; tanto el álbum como sus sencillos se ubicaron bien en las listas de Billboard, pero por períodos de tiempo más cortos que los álbumes y sencillos anteriores. Aún así, fue certificado oro, y luego platino, en octubre. El juego de poderLa gira de 1982 fue la más extensa de la banda: tres meses, con Saga , Eddie Money y Uriah Heep .El juego de poderLa gira de 1982 fue la más extensa de la banda: tres meses, con Saga , Eddie Money y Uriah Heep . [6] Los conciertos de Nueva York con Saga y Money resultaron en álbumes separados de Live From Central Park . La banda comenzó a escribir y grabar su próximo álbum, Animal Grace , pero los miembros no se llevaban bien y Myles Goodwyn se mudó de Canadá a las Bahamas . Tanto Animal Grace como su sencillo "This Could be the Right One" subieron rápidamente en las listas, pero se quedaron solo por un corto tiempo. En 1984, la banda se reunió para su "Farewell Tour" anunciado, que fue una gira de un mes por Canadá.La gira fue lo suficientemente exitosa como para generar otro álbum en vivo, One for the Road . April Wine todavía le debía a Capitol Records un álbum más. Greenway se unió a Goodwyn en Nassau , junto con los músicos de sesión de Montreal Daniel Barbe (teclados), Jean Pellerin (bajo) y el baterista Marty Simon, para grabar lo que se suponía sería el último álbum de la banda, Walking Through Fire . Fue lanzado en septiembre de 1985 bajo el nombre de April Wine.En 1988, Goodwyn regresó a Canadá. Aunque había interés en una reunión de April Wine, y el tema fue discutido entre los ex integrantes, otros compromisos impidieron que se reunieran hasta 1992. April Wine volvió a los escenarios ese año, comenzando con un concierto gratuito en Portage la Prairie, Manitoba. . La banda reunida estaba formada por Goodwyn, Greenway, el baterista Jerry Mercer y el bajista Jim Clench, que no había tocado con la banda desde 1975. Completando el acto estaba el tercer guitarrista Steve Segal. La banda realizó una gira por Canadá y Estados Unidos. En 1993, ahora con Flood Ross Entertainment, lanzaron el primer álbum "verdadero" de April Wine en una década, Attitude .Fue certificado oro en Canadá poco después de su lanzamiento.

Bill Gaines changed the comic industry in multiple ways, in multiple eras, it just so happens that our favorite involved schlocky gore and stolen stories. The "source material" included works from Ralph Murphy, Robert Florey, F. Marion Crawford, Arthur Machens, W.F. Harvey, H. P. Lovecraft, Edgar Allan Poe, Ray Bradburry, David H. Keller, and Carl Theodor Dreyer.  In the episode, we try to herald the artists of the comic, including Wally Wood, Johnny Craig, Graham Ingels, George Evans, Jack Kamen, and Joe Orlando. Truly, the art is what distinguished this series more than anything else.  We also touch on the cartoon series, Tales from the Cryptkeeper, the feature films (Tales from the Crypt and The Vault of Fear), and the bizarre game show, Secrets of the Cryptkeeper's Haunted House.  This week's "Hidden Track" is Makes My Blood Dance with their song Sick as Our Secrets. www.makesmyblooddance.com If you ever have feedback or recommendations on future episodes, please let us know at slasherspod@gmail.com.

Watch Last Week's Episode: https://youtu.be/_cgmX79uwHI Get Ralph's Book here: https://amzn.to/2Xuzt0w I lost a very close friend on Tuesday. Ralph Murphy was also a friend to countless songwriters all over the world. They lost their most generous teacher and cheerleader this week. If you aren’t already familiar with Ralph’s bio, click here to see it. Ralph was in Los Angeles last month, and we enjoyed 2 glorious days of golf together. But it was our late night chats at the Laskow family kitchen table that were always the most enriching and endearing part of our friendship over the last 25 years or so. Ralph enjoyed a life that was very well lived, and he had a million great stories to share. I’m actually surprised that none of the obituaries mention what an incredible raconteur he was. Spending four or five hours on a golf course with Ralph was an entertaining education and a philosophy class rolled into one. I’ll miss our annual outings. For this week’s TAXI TV, we’re going to replay an episode with Ralph from a couple of years ago. He had “chemo fog” during last month’s appearance on TAXI TV and wasn’t always able to articulate his thoughts as well as he would have liked. I prefer to remember my friend when he was 100%. Actually, if Ralph were reading this, he would have joked, “Have I ever been 100%?” Yes Ralph, you were. I miss his warmth and sense of humor.

“There’s a difference between a dream and a fantasy. A dream is something you’re willing to take some steps towards... you just cannot help but go hard after it.” In episode 76, John tackles the burning question on the mind of nearly every songwriter who desires to reach a larger audience in the music realm. John gives a brief background of his own journey with songwriting, publishing, and career with Integrity music. “Do something to further your craft. Anything, Even a small thing is better than living in a fantasy world waiting for someone to come and do this for you… If this is a true passion in your life, you’ll be willing to do something about it.” John discusses the tools we have to spread our message that are right in our hand. So many times we overcomplicate the idea of sharing our music. When we do our part to get our music out there, opportunities are created for others to hear our message and for others, including publishers, to take note. John also shares meaningful statistics that cut down the notion that we have to wait for a publisher, in order to be successful in the music industry. “You have, in the palm of you hand, the most overlooked publishing mechanism in the world... We need to lose the excuses of needing the right people… build up your craft so that they’ll be chasing you… it’s an old mindset to think that someone is going to ‘discover’ you. ” John shares three fundamental keys for songwriting success, as given by Ralph Murphy from ASCAP. These simple keys, that are easily implemented will increase the quality and power of your songs. Creating phenomenal songs, and utilizing the power you hold right in your hand, will help secure your platform in the music community.
