April 4, 2022: In the (Miller) mood

Listen to this show: Pop-up listen Pop-up player!

Artist	Track	Album	Label	Year	Format	Comments	Approx. start time
Members of The Glenn Miller Orchestra	In the Mood	In the Miller Mood	Crown	1969	LP	–	0:00:00 (Pop-up)
Jonah Jones with the Jubilee Four, Dick Hyman and the New Disciples of Rhythm	The Lonesome Road	That Righteous Feelin'	Capitol	1963	LP	–	0:03:32 (Pop-up)
Buddy Morrow and His Orchestra	Hey, Mr. Bones	Dancing Tonight To Morrow	RCA Victor	1959	LP	Whoever said the dance-band business was dead? If so, there's a very lively ghost by the name of Buddy Morrow busily fulfilling engagements at colleges and ballrooms throughout the country. Judging from the never-empty dance floor at all of his dates, there is no record hop that can ever replace the live music of a swinging name band.	0:05:31 (Pop-up)
Ted Heath & His Music	Sentimental Journey	Satin, Strings & Bouncing Brass	London Phase 4 Stereo	1963	LP	A touch of echo on the exposed drummer's microphone (left) is all that was needed to give our musical locomotive the sound of its hissing steam; a turning figure on the saxophpnes (left) has them sliding as wheels on a wet track; and for a sound that pierces as penetratingly as any train whistle in the night, listen to what two soprano saxophones (left) written in harmony and a high register can do! No train has ever travelled to better sounds: trombones' percussive stabs, trumpets' brilliant jabs, bongos' jolting cracks (all right), and, ultimately the whole band, loud and clear, like a streamlined express. But, upon arrival, worked and spent, this iron horse comes to a slow stop, its momentum curtailed by the drummers' brush strokes (left), the slippery saxophone turns (also left).	0:10:51 (Pop-up)
The Mariachi Brass featuring Chet Baker	Pennsylvania 6-5000	In the Mood	World Pacific	1966	LP	There are no limitations today on the sources from whence popular music emanates. The excitement generated by the creation of new groups and new sounds has developed an environment which bristles with zestful melodies.	0:13:23 (Pop-up)
The Living Marimbas	Patricia "Patricia" by "The Living Marimbas"	Georgy Girl and Other Music to Watch Girls By	RCA Camden	1967	LP	Join in the escapades of the Living Marimbas as they travel through some of your favorites tunes and adventure into exciting sounds of the pop music scene today.	0:15:22 (Pop-up)
Johnny Puleo and his Harmonica Gang	The Peanut Vendor	S/T	Audio Fidelity	1957	LP	–	0:17:39 (Pop-up)
Enoch Light & The Light Brigade	Cecilia	Let It Be	Project 3	1972	LP	The magnificent quality of sounds that originate from the Enoch Light Orchestra have never been more profoundly brilliant than they are in this exclusive selection of some of the best known songs ever written and recorded. Put on the music – relax – and let your mood dictate how you want to spend the next forty minutes. LET IT BE!	0:19:34 (Pop-up)
Pete Fountain	I Know A Place "I Know A Place" by "Pete Fountain"	A Taste of Honey	Coral	1966	LP	Most of the tunes Pete has chosen made the ascent into the Top Forty recently. Any tune that attains such elevation is, of course, inescapable. It penetrates the consciousness somewhere, via records, radio or TV. Sometimes the penetration is not at first agreeable, but repetitions are not always vain. With familiarity may come tolerance, then acceptance, and finally an amused pleasure.	0:22:13 (Pop-up)
Wes Montgomery	California Dreaming	California Dreaming	Verve	1966	LP	–	0:24:29 (Pop-up)
Jimmy McGriff	Cute "Cute" by "Jimmy McGriff"	The Big Band	Solid State	1966	LP	–	0:27:25 (Pop-up)
Harry Breur and his Quintet	Bumble Bee Bolero	Mallet Magic	Audio Fideltiy	1957	LP	Practically all music lovers have an irresistible fascination for percussion instruments. Who hasn't put himself in the place of the percussionist who holds the spotlight when he crashes the cymbals together to mark the storm in Rossini's "William Tell Overture" ?	0:34:04 (Pop-up)
Klaus Wunderlich Elec**** Trick Piano	Java	Sound 2000 2	Telefunken	1973	LP	–	0:36:12 (Pop-up)
Richard Maltby	St. Louis Blues Mambo	LIFE of the Party	RCA	1972	LP	Having a party? A good way to get everyone in the right mood is to play this party record created especially for a swinging soiree... The names are famous, the moods are varied, so that whatever the musical tastes of your friends and neighbors you can't fail, with such ingredients, to create for yourself, and become the "Life of the Party".	0:38:38 (Pop-up)
Robert Maxwell (His Harp and Orchestra)	Adios	Peg O' My Heart	Decca	1964	LP	These songs, and others, are guaranteed to provide untold hours of the most pleasurable listening, and that promise HAS strings attached... the strings of Robert Maxwell's inimitable harp.	0:41:04 (Pop-up)
Marino Marini and his Quartet	Guaglione	Welcome To Italy	London		LP	"We will bring some of our sunshine and music to your country" seems to be the Marini motto and indeed one can feel the pulsating heart of Naples in their music... guitars and voices that murmur words of love, the notes of a piano suggesting a fashionable melody in the discreet shadows of a night club, crazy and gay songs of the equally crazy and gay youth; there is nothing affected in their performances and maybe the Marini secret lays in its simplicity of style, perfection and timing and genuine enthusiasm–in one word–every note comes straight from the heart.	0:42:59 (Pop-up)
The String-A-Longs	Black is Black	Wide World Hits	ATCO	1968	LP	The String-A-Longs have taken some of the wide world vocal hits and have added their own very special luster to good melodies that were first vocals, then they have added their soft touch to songs meant to be instrumentals.	0:45:54 (Pop-up)
The Toronadoes	Beatle Hair "Beatle Hair" by "The Toronadoes"	Taste of Honey / Tijuana Style	Design	1966	LP	–	0:48:45 (Pop-up)
Heidi Bachert	My Boy Lollipop "My Boy Lollipop" by "Heidi Bachert"	Die Spitzenreiter 1964	Polydor	1964	LP	–	0:51:01 (Pop-up)
King Curtis	One Mint Julep (Medley)						0:56:46 (Pop-up)

	4:02pm Rubberband Girl: Good day, Cap'n! I hope you'll settle for some MEMBERS OF the GM Orchestra...
	4:07pm Mr Fab: rather rock n rollin beat for a swing band.
	4:07pm Domenic: Skips! Love it
	4:13pm Rubberband Girl: Welcome, Domenic 🤗
	4:14pm Rubberband Girl: ¡Pennsylvania Seis-Cinco Mil!
	4:16pm Mr Fab: Ah yes, those "rent gigs" Chet Baker did with the Mariachi Brass when he was in a bad way. Kinda like Bruce Willis' last films.
	4:17pm Domenic: The Living Marimbas are the best ones...I got that Georgy Girl LP too
	4:20pm Scott67: G'day RBG & -Band of Buddies! 👍😎🍵🎶📻🌞🌏🌻
	4:21pm Mr Fab: time for The Enoch Light Of The Week!
	4:21pm Muddyrich: A similar line here to enoch's Marrakech Express
	4:22pm Rubberband Girl: This is true, Muddyrich! Good ear...
	4:22pm Muddyrich: Love those Living Marimbas, btw, was wondering how many Sound Gallery denizens were involved
	4:24pm Mr Fab: Was that "Downtown"? Sounded more like "I Know A Place."
	4:26pm Rubberband Girl: Oops, yes, thanks Fab!
	4:26pm Scott67: I thought it was Fab!?
	4:27pm Domenic: Those Wes Montgomery recordings are a knockout
	4:28pm Austin Rich: If it's cool, it must be "Provocative Percussion."
	4:29pm Scott67: All this tinkling of organ has got me thinking, I better get outa bed! 👍😉👣
	4:29pm Mr Fab: boy, how 'bout the backhanded complements in those Pete Fountain liners? Translation: "Here's a bunch of that rock n roll crap, some of it so bad it gets kinda funny." Old people!
	4:32pm Austin Rich: Liner notes are a whole genre unto themselves. I miss albums with a huge diatribe on the back about how important the album is.
	4:35pm Rubberband Girl: I am compelled to recite some of them throughout the show, but I don't want to interrupt the flow of the music, so... will prob try it soon, tho!
	4:36pm Mr Fab: Yeah, and I miss all-harmonica groups! i wonder if there have been any in the last 50 years or so.
	4:36pm Austin Rich: We should have a show where we just "read" the backs of our records.
	4:40pm Rubberband Girl: This LP has one of my favorite covers: www.discogs.com...
	4:41pm Mr Fab: op-art!
	4:42pm spacebrother: The flute is rolling its "r"s
	4:45pm WR: Hi folks. DJ RBG, I have been listening but too busy to write more than this greeting and thanks for the tunes. Interesting playlist that I will replay when can listen more closely.
	4:46pm Mr Fab: "crazy and gay songs of the equally crazy and gay youth" I think it's been about 20 years since i heard someone use the word "gay" in that sense. i wonder if that's now considered an archaic use of the word. (haven't checked any new dictionaries lately).
	4:49pm Austin Rich: Next you gotta play that "Beatle Boots" song.
	4:50pm Muddyrich: Looks like there was some actual beatle hair on the record!
	4:51pm Rubberband Girl: Yes, Muddy XD
	4:52pm Muddyrich: I have had a nice Del-Fi Beatle cash-in 45 since before I had any Beatles records...i might have been vaguely aware of them, they were certainly no Monkees in my 5 year old world
	4:52pm David in California: Mr. Fab, it's been longer than that since I've heard it used that way. I remember Dick Cavett complaining about its use by homosexuals, and saying does that mean heterosexuals are "glums", and that was on his ABC show 50 years ago.
	4:53pm Muddyrich: I have to look up Spitzenreiter
	4:54pm Muddyrich: Pplaylist
	4:54pm Otis: Off chat today but dialed in since the top. Sweet show and thanks for the Light of Enoch blessing us all today.
