WFMU: Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from July 15, 2022

Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from July 15, 2022

Musical theater from off the beaten path. Obscure and unusual show tunes from within the canon and without, flops, failures, and the newest works from up-and-coming artists—plus tried-and-true hits. Also, occasional appearances from songs that are not show tunes (but only if they go really well with show tunes).

Listener comments!
	🎭 7:00pm Listener Gregory: I won't say I've been drinking, but I am not 100% sober. I should probably just stand in the back.
	7:01pm Doug Schulkind: Put your hands together for AJH!
	🎭 7:03pm TonyR: "Passed out in the Family Circle: A Life" -- by Listener Gregory
	7:06pm Webhamster Henry: Hi there Broadway and beyond lovers!
	🎭 7:06pm WR: How timely, I was on jury duty today.
	🎭 7:09pm Listener Gregory: Bronwyn, if you don't explain how operetta is different from musical theater and opera, I will be hugely disappointed. And thanks for the publicity, @TonyR. It is available at your local independent bookstore.
	7:12pm Webhamster Henry: This is already a kind of stretchy definition of Operetta. But Rose-Marie is smack on target.
	🎭 7:15pm TonyR: Rock Operatta? Oh Noes!
	7:16pm Webhamster Henry: I've been at rehearsals the past few weeks.
	🎭 7:16pm TonyR: Not Today, Covid! (You either, Satan!)
	🎭 7:17pm TonyR: EVERY edition of AJH is long-awaited.
	🎭 7:17pm WR: ARB and Bronwyn both called in sick last Friday. Coincidence?
	7:19pm Listener Gregory: Good explanation, Ms B. I think you should sing along with one set (with the mic on, obviously)!
	🎭 7:20pm WR: Now I want to write an operetta where there are three lead characters who are stabbed in the beginning and spend the rest of the operetta bleeding and bleating.
	🎭 7:21pm TonyR: "Ladies and Gentlemen, a radio spectacular that never gets an introduction..."
	7:21pm doctorjazz: Hello Dahhhhlinnngs!!!!
	7:23pm Webhamster Henry: Germans ... and Austrians!
	7:27pm Webhamster Henry: The thing is...Austrians, particularly the Viennese - are acutely thankful that the Turkish army was repelled in 1683, and left their coffee and inspired their kipferln (Austrian croissants).
	7:27pm Listener Gregory: The dogs in my neighborhood are all joining in at the high notes in this song.
	7:37pm Webhamster Henry: Berliner Luft is one of those things like Der Hauptmann vov Köpenick that plays all the time near New Years Day (a/k/a Sylvester)
	🎭 7:39pm Listener Gregory: @Webhamster, I think you lapsed into a foreign language there.
	🎭 7:41pm Listener Gregory: Ah, Berliner Luft now appears in the playlist! All is understood, @WH.
	7:48pm doctorjazz: I missed the beginning, with the explanation for what the show is about (or I've been transported across the Atlantic).
	🎭 7:53pm Listener Gregory: BB, my dad wanted to name me Rundfunk, but he was for some reason overruled—and I have had to live with the consequences ever since.
	🎭 7:54pm Listener Gregory: @doctorj, just take a slice of linzertorte and relax!
	🎭 7:59pm WR: Will that be with tea or coffee?
	8:00pm doctorjazz: Can I order cappuccino? And delivery, of course.
	🎭 8:00pm WR: Anneliese Rothenberger woos me.
	🎭 8:03pm WR: In my feint I accidentally touched the link to the previous playlist and was confused to see that my comment said thank you and laters. Very disorienting.
	🎭 8:04pm Listener Gregory: @WR, thank you and see you later!
	8:04pm doctorjazz: WR, that looks like a delicious sandwich in your pic! Now I gotta eat!
	🎭 8:07pm WR: I had cheese dogs 4 nights last week. This week I'm back to ramen.
	8:09pm doctorjazz: Leftovers here tonight (did grill some corn from the local farm store to give it a bit of zing)
	8:10pm doctorjazz: I could live on hot dogs (but I wouldn't live all that long). Nathans, ahhhh...
	🎭 8:10pm WR: Yes, good time of year for grilled corn.
	🎭 8:13pm WR: I'm tonight using new headphones. Mid level but so far liking them Sennheiser PCX 550-II. Decent sounding and comfy to wear laying down. Bluetooth.
	🎭 8:16pm Listener Gregory: The music tonight is charming. I'm sure it's improved by my not being able to understand the lyrics.
	🎭 8:16pm WR: I've not listened to much operetta for decades. Very much enjoying, in fact, for the first time enjoying. I used to be all Sturm und Drang.
	🎭 8:17pm WR: That is a factor LG.
	8:20pm Bronwyn Bishop: Glad you're enjoying it Gregory and WR!!!
	🎭 8:29pm WR: So ridiculous, theme, climax, theme, climax, etc.
	🎭 8:31pm WR: More ! More!
	🎭 8:36pm Listener Gregory: @WR, my operettas only climax once. After that, everyone is exhausted. It's a bit embarrassing.
	8:36pm doctorjazz: Oy!
	🎭 8:36pm Listener Gregory: Sorry!
	🎭 8:38pm WR: Remarkably, among regular WFMU listeners there are a very wide range of languages spoken. Don't know of any that are more than trilingual. David Dichelle is likely candidate among WFMU DJs.
	8:40pm Webhamster Henry: Stashu is good at Polish!
	8:42pm doctorjazz: Working on English as a second language... My Mom was quite fluent in languages, Polish, Yiddish, German, Swedish, English. I didn't take after her.
	🎭 8:43pm WR: Jan Turkenburg knows at least 4. Interesting doc, how did Swedish come to your mom?
	8:45pm doctorjazz: Long story. She was a refugee after World War 2, wound up living in Sweden after the war, until 1954 (I was born in Sweden, but came to the US at age 9 months).
	8:46pm Wenzo Toad: awesome show, dig it much
	8:47pm doctorjazz: Interesting how this German music from the 20s doesn't sound that different from early 20s US music.
	🎭 8:47pm WR: Wenzo Toad! Howdy, haven't seen comment from you for a few weeks, hope all is well.
	8:49pm Wenzo Toad: yea I just dropped my phone in a lake, thanks wr!
	8:51pm Listener Gregory: Ms Bishop, what is your ruling on Tom Waits’s Black Rider? Operetta or not operetta?
	🎭 8:56pm WR: A musical, I would venture LG.
	8:57pm Listener Gregory: Are there words other than the songs? I only know Waits’s own album.
	🎭 8:57pm WR: Yes, don't know if recorded, but it is a play.
	8:58pm doctorjazz: Thanks, Bronwyn, enjoyed the show (will be speaking with a heavy German accent for the rest of the night). Night, all!
	🎭 8:58pm TonyR: Julie!!!!
	8:59pm doctorjazz: The Hills are Alive...
	8:59pm Bronwyn Bishop: yeah @LG it's an avant-garde musical
	9:00pm Webhamster Henry: I was hoping you'd get to Candide - Barbara Cook is very Operetty
	9:00pm Listener Gregory: Thx for the info, everyone. Bronwyn calling an audible and placing Candide in the operetta category. Gutsy move!
	9:01pm Listener Gregory: Great show for your triumphant return, Bronwyn!
	9:02pm Webhamster Henry: I think I have a rehearsal again next week, but thanks for this week's sugar shock!
	🎭 9:04pm WR: Yes, I agree, very sweet, but nice to indulge from time to time.
