My First Album - Frank Zappa/Captain Beefheart - Bongo Fury

Jan 5, 3:45am The Ripple Effect
Who the hell gives a 7 year old a Frank Zappa record for Christmas? My oldest brother Joe did. On Christmas morning in 1974 a copy of Zappa's latest album Apostrophe (') was under the tree for me. Joe and I used to love to listen to Dr. Demento on the radio and he heard "Don't Eat The Yellow Snow" once and figured I would love all the poo poo jokes. I did. But I also loved the music. So about a year or so later when I found out that Frank Zappa was [...]

Day 8-A cartoon character

Nov 23, 2011, 8:01pm Asleep on the compost heap
Day 8-A cartoon character Ren and Stimpy used to come on BBC2 on Tuesdays at 7.50pm when I was in second year in school. I remember this clearly, because my first class on Wednesday was German and my friend Seán and I used to mostly spend it in a sniggering jock remembering bits of it. Remember when you were in school and used to 'remember' bits of films and TV shows? You'd say to your friends 'remember the bit when...' and it would be as if you were watching that bit all over again, except this time with friends. Things always seemed more impressive [...]

Silly Sundays - Rose and the Arrangement - The Cockroach That Ate Cincinnati

Oct 25, 2009, 9:36am She'll Grow Back
Silly Sundays - Rose and the Arrangement - The Cockroach That Ate Cincinnati It's less than a week to Halloween, so hang on to those hats and glasses -- we're going to hear some spooky, kooky, ooky things between now and then. Here's my favorite song ever about horror films. With a title reminiscent of " The Eggplant That Ate Chicago ," and a group of accomplished musicians and singers, Rose and the Arrangement ( Dr. Demento loves them ) serve up a delicious platter of horrendous rhymes and a catchy earwig of a tune. This was on the first Dr. Demento compilation I ever got, and it's a [...]

Silly Sundays - Bowser and Blue - Polka Dot Undies

Jul 12, 2009, 7:00am She'll Grow Back
Silly Sundays - Bowser and Blue - Polka Dot Undies Boswer and Blue ( official wiki AMG ) are a Canadian comedy duo, and a real favorite of Dr. Demento , the king of novelty records. I should warn you that, despite that art to the right there, Bowser and Blue aren't really Lou Reed and Jim Belushi playing incognito. This song does, however, include contributions from a sizeable percentage of 80's stalwarts Katrina and the Waves. This is one of the best of the many many parodies of Bob Dylan out there, with a twist. This [...]

TV News Producer Cheatsheet: Offbeat News Stories (with accompanying bumper music)

Feb 11, 2009, 9:18am EAR FARM
Bumper music is "a term used in the radio broadcasting industry to refer to short clips of music used to buffer transitions between programming elements. Bumper music is commonly employed when a syndicated program takes a break for local station identification or goes to commercial." (above control room image from HERE ) Often you'll see pop songs used to "bump" offbeat or curious news stories on cable news channels, many times the music isn't so well chosen... well, we're here to help (as we have previously HERE and HERE ).

Dusting 'Em Off: Dr. Demento - Dr. Demento Presents the Greatest Novelty Records of All Time, Volume VI: Christmas

Dec 24, 2008, 3:14pm Consequence Of Sound
Oh what to say about Christmas music without coming across as a Scrooge. It seems that every year we hear a new regurgitation of the same old set of songs. Really, how many different ways can you hear "White Christmas" in a day? I haven't seen snow anytime around Christmas since the mid-nineties, and even then it was nothing to sing about. I apologize if you love hearing "Do They Know It's Christmas Time" ad nauseum from Thanksgiving through New Years, but when it comes to Christmas music, there is a need for a serious overhaul. There are those artists [...]

Retrohump Day - Dr. Demento

Barnes & Barnes: Fish Heads
From the tortured memory banks of a forgotten past MS goes the silly and unpretentious route of novelty videos popularized by Dr. Demento. Rolly polly fish heads have been messing with my head since I first watched the Dr. Demento specials on MTV God knows how many years ago. With modern technology now allowing for wrinkles in time via a newfangled series of tubes that we refer simply as The Internet, the collectively repressed ghosts of a generation return from backroom obscurity to special star on our popular weekly Retrohump roundup. Enjoy as lack [...]
