Music for the masses

Buster Poindexter is the lounge-lizard alter-ego of David Johansen, one of rock’s most influential singers. After founding the seminal glam/punk band The New York Dolls and beginning a successful solo career, Johansen unveiled his Buster Poindexter character in the mid-80s, and you’ve been dancing to his version of “Hot Hot Hot” at weddings ever since. Buster has been known to sing pop standards, novelty songs, rock’n’roll, and old blues, and long ago in the before times he performed this set live in The Greene Space in 2015.  Watch Buster Poindexter and his band perform a special bonus song "Heart Of Gold":...moreCopy Link

A new album, a special anniversary and a legendary quote We talk about the upcoming new album "Cyr", the musical development of the Smashing Pumpkins, the human development of... all of us... and also what their famous line "the killer in me is the killer in you" actually means. And yes, Billy is just as great as you think he is!

The dembow, the beat behind reggaetón, is much more than just a backdrop for a night of partying and dancing. The style of music, widely associated with Puerto Rico and forged from a mixture of Jamaican dancehall, Panamanian reggae en español, and American hip hop, has always existed as a form of social and political resistance, and continues to do so in 2020. And as such, it has endured constant attempts to criminalize, censor, and police both the music and those who consume it, from the early tape-confiscations by Puerto Rican law enforcement in the 1990s underground scene to the present day, arguing its hypersexual content. In this episode we speak with Latin and Caribbean music scholars and social workers to break down the racist and sexist undertones of the genre's constant policing, as well as examples of songs by artists such as Tego Calderón and Ivy Queen, that counter these assumptions. We also take a couple of detours to explore how this music, and these criticisms, manifest in the Dominican Republic and Cuba. Produced by Luis López. [APWW #824]...moreCopy Link

You can send a written comment along with a picture of what you're doing while listening. Email a voicemail message to celticpodcast@gmail.com Becki Laws from Widnes, England sent a photo: "What am I doing while listening to your podcast? Maths revision. Someone recommended its good background music with a steady tempo thats easy to concentrate to. That is all true, but then I fell in love with it too and look up the artists you mention to find more of their work. Haha" Jeremy Holt emailed from Nashville, TN: "Love the pod cast working on Gibson guitars while listening" John Mahony emailed: "Hi Mark, I’ve listened for quite a while and even went back to listen to the early episodes to see what I’d missed! I enjoy the music, and thanks for taking the time and effort to put this together every week! There wasn’t a specific link to email you with my vote for the picture, but I liked the traditional Irish one better than the Americanized Halloween image. Sorry, since I know you put some effort into making that image, but that’s it. Have you heard of Emma Langford? She’s brilliant and would be a great addition to the podcast some day. I could send you a picture of me in front of my Zoom green screen, but it would be rather boring, I think."...moreCopy Link

The Emperor's New Groove came out 20 years ago, during a time when Disney's animation department was going through an identity crisis. The plot is simple: David Spade is a bratty emperor. Eartha Kitt and Patrick Warburton turn him into a llama. And John Goodman is the peasant who helps make things right. It was originally gonna be an epic musical, but then it became a comedy, a box-office disappointment, and now, we would argue, a beloved classic.

On this week's show, we pair in conversation the artists behind two of 2020's best albums: soul and blues legend Bettye LaVette and indie wunderkind Phoebe Bridgers. Though separated by five decades in age, when the two met backstage at a Tibet House US benefit at Carnegie Hall earlier this year, they immediately developed a mutual friend crush. Now that we've gotten them reconnected here, it appears something very dope is on the horizon... but more on that in the talk!Their warm, freewheeling convo takes in a lot, including: a wonderful overview of a career Bettye calls “tenuous at best”; the unexpected benefits of promoting a new album during the pandemic; and privilege in the music industry. We also get to hear about making Pete Townshend cry, quirky Little Stevie Wonder, and learn the answer to Bettye's query "What is a Princess Nokia?"Check it out, and subscribe now to stay in the loop on future episodes of the Talkhouse Podcast, including Norah Jones with Jeff Tweedy, and then Jeff again(!) with comedian Nick Offerman, and Bootsy Collins (Bootzilla, baby!) with Mix Master Mike (Beastie Boys).

Every song Cyndi Lauper writes is pop perfection according to Sam Sanders, host of NPR’s “It’s Been A Minute.” Many fall for “Girls Just Want To Have Fun,” but Sanders's favorite song is the slow burner “All Through The Night,” save for one moment: the synthesizer solo. For Sanders, this solo never fit in. Charlie investigates the source of his musical malady and uncovers how the 80s got its groove. Songs DiscussedCyndi Lauper - Girls Just Want To Have FunCyndi Lauper - Time After TimeCyndi Lauper - She BopCyndi Lauper - All Through the NightJanet Jackson - When I Think Of YouJanet Jackson - The Pleasure PrincipleJanet Jackson - NastyKenny Loggins - Danger ZoneWhitney Houston - Greatest Love Of AllQueen - Who Wants To Live ForeverTina Turner - What's Love Got To Do With ItCyndi Lauper - Change Of HeartPhil Collins - In The Air TonightKim Carnes - Bette Davis EyesTom Petty - You Got LuckyCars - Lets GoTalking Heads - Burning Down The HouseParliament Funkadelic - Atomic DogThe Weeknd - Blinding LightsDua Lipa - PhysicalLittle Mix - Break Up SongMiley Cyrus - Heart of Glass (Blondie Cover)MoreRead Dr. Megan L.
