Christmas TV Special! (#128)
Join Mid-Valley Mutations as we Channel Surf during our Christmas break. It’s like watching an old Dead Martin holiday special,…
There was a point where I used to acknowledge a lot more of those we have lost recently, and I called the series “The People Who Died”, natch, which seemed funny and a great way to pass the time.
But as the years add up, and more people pass, the idea seems less fun to me. Going through the lists of people who have gone, dredging up the memories… it just feels like a lot less of a “cool” idea, and more of an emotional drain.
However, there are so many we have lost recently – many of whom I actually quite enjoy as artists – that it seemed like I needed to press forward. We are all coping with loss of some kind, and maybe through the celebration of art that we enjoy, we can find a way to process all of this loss and feel good about it, even if in some small way.
This program includes samples of Leonard Cohen, Katherine Dunn, a PBS special about Sam Shepard, Monty Hall, and an interview with / lecture by Sir Terry Pratchett. During the podcast-only bonus section of the program, there are also samples of Roger Moore, Adam West & June Foray, too. They are not credited below, and I’m starting to think that, aside from absolutely essential credits, I may just start doing something like this. Obviously, I would love your input. How would you like to see the show notes written in the future?
Regardless, I think it works for the flow of this show, and I think it’ll work for you, too. Give it a shot. And, of course:
Enjoy!

Dvadeset i četvrto izdanje emisije puštamo u jeku sve ljepšeg vremena i nadolazećih dugih dana pred nama. Uživat ćemo u…

Epizoda broj 31, El Diabolika, specijal pod nazivom “Teror”, donosi izbor psihotroničkih soundtrackova, probrane selekcije u skladu s naslovom. El Diabolik i Simon McLean nas vode kroz soudtrackove iz filmova “Poltergiest”, “Phenomena”, “The Return of the Living Dead” i drugih.
U subotu, 27. lipnja 2015., u 67. je godini života preminuo Chris Squire, bas gitarist sastava Yes, kao i jedan od njegovih utemeljitelja. Zanimljivo je kako je Squire jedini član Yesa koji je u bendu bio čitavo vrijeme, kroz sve njezine postave. Stoga ovotjedno izdanje Polibiotičkih struktura donosi svjevrstan presjek karijere Chrisa Squirea, s naglaskom uglavnom na period djelovanja Yesa u sedamdesetima, uključujući i kompletan samostalni album Fish Out of Water. Između skladbi možete čuti djelove intervjua kojega je nedugo po objavljivanju albuma Drama sa Chrisom Squireom vodio poznati američki radijski DJ i voditelj Jim Ladd.
