Listener comments!
	👻 6:31pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	9:01pm Pauly from Clifton: Hey Austin, folks!
	9:01pm Krys O.: Howdy!
	👻 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Pauly from Clifton @9:01 Pauly! Always nice to see you in the chat.
	👻 9:02pm Austin Rich: ↳ Krys O. @9:01 Thanks for tuning in!
	👻 9:06pm ramencity: ohi rocket-cats
	9:06pm Charles: rockin'
	9:07pm Mr Fab: Hey Austin, Ready to rock and/or roll tonight! Great concept for a show.
	9:07pm Pauly from Clifton: ↳ Song: "Rock 'n' Roll Dance Party [Excerpt]" by "Alan Freed" Wow...that's some line-up on that poster. Damn...
	👻 9:08pm Heather Z: Dancing shoes on and ready to rock!!
	👻 9:08pm ramencity: ↳ Pauly from Clifton @9:07 Teddy Randazzo, rock god! (moo?)
	9:08pm Krys O.: It's always great to hear announcements of your specials on the Wake n Bake morning program, Austin.
	👻 9:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Krys O. @9:08 That's so cool that they do that! I do try to make them at least interesting. And fun!
	👻 9:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ ramencity @9:06 Always wonderful to see you in the chat!
	👻 9:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:06 Hooray! It's Charles!
	👻 9:10pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:07 You can, fortunately, do both tonight. No one will try to stop you!
	9:12pm Aitch: That over now
	9:14pm Pauly from Clifton: ↳ Song: "Mr. Rock & Roll" by "Lionel Hampton" Lionel Hampton played a free show at Buccleuch Park in New Brunswick, NJ, when I was a student at Rutgers. 1986? He was awesome if I remember correctly.
	👻 9:16pm ramencity: Rockin' Payola! (And the Law Enforcement Blues..)
	9:19pm RevComX: I see Mister Rock and Roll starred the also tragic Frankie Lymon
	9:19pm Charles: Thanks for putting in the work Austin!
	👻 9:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ RevComX @9:19 Yeah. There are a few weird elements to the film, for sure. Like I said: skip the plot, watch the performances. And: Stay Sick!
	9:22pm RevComX: As someone who grew up in Cleveland and heard the legends of Freed growing up, I love that you put all this together!
	👻 9:22pm Austin Rich: ↳ RevComX @9:22 Ahhh, thanks! It was fun to listen to all this stuff, putting this together.
	👻 9:23pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:19 I had a lot of fun, for sure. I do like to make the radio.
	👻 9:23pm Austin Rich: ↳ Pauly from Clifton @9:14 That would have been amazing to see!
	9:24pm Mr Fab: Freed got a raw deal. Payola's not cool, but it was widespread, and folk like Dick Clark were let off the hook. And then payola came back in a big way in the '70s anyway, and has never really left in the commercial radio world. (legal payola = pay "independent promoters" to do the actual bribing of radio music directors)
	9:25pm Geoff-U: Hullo wave
	👻 9:25pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:24 Precisely! Dick Clark should have suffered, too. He was just as guilty as Alan Freed and other DJs.
	👻 9:26pm Austin Rich: ↳ Geoff-U @9:25 Nice to see you in the chat, Geoff-U!
	9:28pm Mr Fab: this sound quality is perfectly appropriate - imagine we're back in the '50s, wiggling the antenna around, trying to get that AM signal.
	👻 9:28pm Austin Rich: This "Drunk" song is sort of ironic. Alan did struggle with Alcoholism his whole life, and would get caught drinking on the air, often. It eventually lead to his death, after the payola scandal, when he really let the booze take over. So it's weird to hear this (and other songs about drinking) on his show.
	👻 9:31pm Austin Rich: That Christmas Eve show (starting at 10:30 PM!) sounds amazing! The Dominos? Little Walter? Damn!
	9:34pm Krys O.: Saying my goodnight to all! Thanks, Austin!
	9:34pm Mr Fab: sleep well, Krys!
	9:39pm RevComX: WINS radio is who destroyed Pete Myers in the late 60s
	👻 9:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ RevComX @9:39 That's what I've read. Those Mad Daddy airchecks are incredible. I sort of wish he was able to do more for longer. What a wild dude.
	9:42pm HyperDose: Austin you madman!
	👻 9:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ HyperDose @9:42 Hey, if I don't do it, then who will?
	9:44pm Mr Fab: it's interesting this stuff that they considered rock n roll is what we would now often call blues, r n b, jazz (Lionel Hampton) or like the "Drunk" song, jump blues. All pianos and horns, in swing tempo. The electric guitars/elec bass in 4/4 time template wouldn't really codify til surf rock hit in the early '60s.
	👻 9:45pm Austin Rich: While I love all this stuff, I don't think we'll hear much from the early 50s that sounds like what we now call rock. I think that's why I like this era so much: you can hear the music transforming.
	9:53pm Mr Fab: Looking at the poster, bona-fide rockers include Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Everly Brothers and...hmm, Frankie Lymon, maybe? Otherwise, not sure. That Hamp is fantastic, but everyone would call it big-band swing. And Ferlin Husky? That guy's straight-up country. Not complaining! Lovin this. Just saying it's a fascinating history lesson. Like you said Austin, we're hearing the genre forming.
	👻 9:55pm Austin Rich: Here's a link to the wikipedia article about the Moondog Coronation Ball, which includes a copy of the flyer for the event. en.wikipedia.org...
	9:59pm Mr Fab: ↳ Austin Rich @9:55 "The most terrible ball of them all!"
	👻 10:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @9:59 While I often think about "time machine concerts" I would like to see, I think I would pass on this one, since it was shut down by cops, and instead see one of the second or third ones, that were actually successful, and at most of them, the Dominos played! (At least, in the early 50's.)
	10:12pm sufferwords: badass
	👻 10:16pm Heather Z: Loving this story!!!
	10:19pm Mr Fab: This is amazing. I love that you could just go knock on the door and meet a legend. Our own Mike Rogers did that with Rodny Bingenheimer - he went down to KROQ and asked Rodney if he could be Rodney's intern. That simple.
	👻 10:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:19 Oh yeah. That's how you meet people. I just messaged the guys in Negativland, and they all wrote back. And I interviewed all of them, did shows with them. Just because I sent a message.
	👻 10:33pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:31 It sometimes works! I met Martin Newell because I was going to be in England and figured, why not see if I can visit?
	👻 10:33pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:33 And Martin introduced us to Steve Roberts, too! It's a small world...
	👻 10:35pm Austin Rich: I should note: at the time, not billed or knows as "Jackie Wilson & The Dominos." If anything, they were known as "Billy Ward & The Dominos," at the time.
	👻 10:35pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:33 I think I could email Little Jack Melody right now, too, and hear back in a few days! Famous people are famous but usually also just people! It's neat when it turns out like that!
	👻 10:38pm ramencity: I remember seeing Jackie Wilson on tv when I was a kiddo, singing "No Pity in the Naked City" and flipping out
	10:42pm Mr Fab: Oy. You're right about Judd Nelson being nerdy. After hearing the real thing, he was def not the hep cat that Freed was. Who WAS cool enough to play him in '99?
	👻 10:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:42 Good Question! Who looks like Alan Freed, in 1999? Anyone in the chat have suggestions?
	👻 10:46pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:44 You know I'm no help here! Scrambling frantically for actor names, um, um, um... Nick Cage?! Christian Slater??
	👻 10:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:46 Both could have done very interesting versions of Alan Freed, and would have taken an off-beat role in 1999.
	10:47pm Mr Fab: ↳ Heather Z @10:46 Good choices! Slater did in fact play an underground dj in the film "Pump up the Volume."
	👻 10:48pm Austin Rich: ↳ Mr Fab @10:47 True! I think, about a half-decade before that, or so? (Sometime in the early 90's, methinks.)
	10:48pm Arvo: Howdy! What did I miss?
	👻 10:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:48 Hey! A bunch of early 50's radio and stuff. But really, you're here now, so the party can start for real!
	👻 10:49pm Heather Z: ↳ Mr Fab @10:47 I never saw that but do recall being with a group in a car and a friend was saying it was a good film. "Pump Up The Volume?" We said to Leigh who was driving. She turned up the volume on the car radio!
	10:49pm coelacanth∅: aw,jeez... guess i'm a bit late
	10:49pm coelacanth∅: hi Rich, y'all
	👻 10:50pm Heather Z: Hi Arvo! Hi Coel!
	👻 10:50pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:49 It's an excellent remake of the early 80's movie, "Over The Edge."
	👻 10:50pm Austin Rich: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:49 Yay! coelacanthø is here!
	10:50pm coelacanth∅: hi Heather!
	👻 10:51pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:50 Because I'm the age for it, I do have a soft spot for Christian Slater!
	👻 10:52pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:51 You might like Pump Up The Volume. He's a renegade DJ. He listens to hip alt-rock from the late 80's / early 90's. And he's disaffected and mad at the world!
	10:52pm Mr Fab: ↳ Heather Z @10:51 well he did star in a movie about girls with your name
	👻 10:52pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:52 Or I might get mad like I did at Blade Runner so.... 😂
	👻 10:53pm Heather Z: ↳ Mr Fab @10:52 No one ever needs to ask me again what my damage is. 😂
	👻 10:56pm ramencity: ↳ Heather Z @10:53 "Dear Diary: My teen-angst bullshit has a BODY COUNT"
	👻 10:57pm Heather Z: ↳ ramencity @10:56 ❤️ you know it! Arrgh.......
	10:58pm Arvo: ↳ Heather Z @10:51 True Romance is one of my favorites. Patricia Arquette more so than Christian Slater, but Slater plays a comic book store clerk.
	👻 10:59pm Heather Z: ↳ Arvo @10:58 Ok, so you're the second person to mention this movie within, like, the past three days!! Must be a sign??
	10:59pm Arvo: I listened to an archive of Don Joyce the other day for the first time. I am definitely more of a Mad Daddy kinda guy.
	👻 11:00pm Austin Rich: ↳ Arvo @10:59 Mad Daddy is hard to beat. After that, what DO you do?
	👻 11:01pm Heather Z: It's that time! Thanks for a great show as always, Austin, and a fun chat everyone! I'm planning on tuning in for Cat Content next week so hope to see yall then!
	👻 11:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @11:01 See ya next time!
	11:01pm Mr Fab: I need to make a stew. Is Marc wearing my pot as a hat again? -Mrs Bolan
	👻 11:02pm ramencity: They wouldn't let Screamin' Jay Hawkins be an opera singer, so he invented rock n roll to spite 'em
	11:02pm Arvo: ↳ Heather Z @10:59 It is an excellent film. Also worth noting that Natural Born Killers was a supposed to be a dream for those characters. The screen play for True Romance and Natural Born Killers are some of the best I have read.
	11:02pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Rich!
	11:02pm Arvo: Good night all!
	👻 11:04pm Austin Rich: Thanks again, everyone! See ya next week!

Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from March 21, 2023

View austinrich's profile

A combination of collage, new experimental records and other bits and bobs, Mid-Valley Mutations is a tour through the mind of Austin Rich, who has been broadcasting in some form since 1998. Heavily influenced by Dr Demento, Don Joyce and old fashioned College Radio, Austin creates Audio Essays on a variety of subjects, and even just plays records, from time to time. Sometimes Live music and Interviews will grace the program, helping create a situation where you don't really know what you're going to hear, when you tune in. What you need to know is when you enter the Mid-Valley region, be prepared for the Musical Mutations... in whatever form they take.
