Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from May 15, 2020 Favoriting

Bronwyn Bishop's avatar View Bronwyn Bishop's profile Favoriting

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).

This song need's Ken's #metoo goat scream.

Hi everyone!!
Avatar 7:13pm
Bronwyn Bishop:

@Henry: so many musical theatre songs would get that goat scream now, like much of the collected works of lerner and loewe (she says with love)
  🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:15pm
WR:

I know even less about Ken's goat scream than I do about musicals.

Bronwyn Bishop:

@WR: not sure if he still does this, but ken used to have a goat scream sound effect that he would play when songs got iffy in a #MeToo sense

@Henry: Harnick on the lyric you quoted: "''The lyric is dated and irritates a lot of women,'' Mr. Harnick concedes."

i enjoyed seeing sheldon harnick live but that quote reminds me he was born in like 1872

WR:

I have a question I hope one of you can help me with. Relevant to this moment for me since I am mopping and I recall (I think) a musical album cover of a lady and a mop on the cover. She might be sitting and the mop beside her in a bucket. Yeah, random, I know.

@doctorjazz: it's all about the happy songs tonight!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:36pm
Webhamster Henry:

@WR maybe you're thinking of Carol Burnett's show opening animation. Ms. Burnett was in Once Upon A Mattress and Fade Out - Fade In, but not with a mop.
  🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:36pm
WR:

If you happen to randomly know, ok, just an image in my head from when i worked in a record store in 71 - 74, so probably 60s or late 50s.
  🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:37pm
WR:

WHH, very possible my memory has blurred some images together so it exists only in my head.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:38pm
Webhamster Henry:

Or rather closing animation. www.imdb.com...
  🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:43pm
WR:

Burnette has an album cover that fits my description but that's not what I am thinking of. By the way, both Carol Burnett and Debbie Reynolds were born in Texas, but you probably already knew that

www.discogs.com...
  🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:47pm
WR:

I mention Debbie Reynolds because I am wondering if I somehow am misremembering the oar on the cover of Unsinkable Molly Brown.

@Sweet Corn Lizzie. Maybe. Maybe I'm mixing things up in my memory but what I recall isn't a photograph but a graphic design. Thank you for looking.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:42pm
Sweet Corn Lizzie:

It was fun! I thought it might be the book or movie of "Mrs. 'Arris Goes to Paris", a book a read a long time ago about a charwoman who goes to Paris to buy a couture gown, but the cover didn't have her with a mop.

@Cmurtha: which one reminds you of freakazoid?
