Not forgotten - Reviewer: Lee Douglas 08/24/08 12:03 PM EDT
Full Comment: What we try to do each week on Old Time Rock n Roll is to find those songs that are not in every movie you watch and hear every time you turn on an oldies station. We scour every known source to find songs that were a part of our growing up but may have been long forgotten. This weeks show is no exception. In fact most all the songs have never been heard in this form in 50 years, because they were done live. Don't miss this show if you are an oldies lover or a rock history buff.
EPISODE 34 - Psychedlic 60s Times they are a changin' - Reviewer: wren523 04/27/07 05:19 PM EDT
Full Comment: Bob Dylan was a lot more than a singer of protest songs. While that's how he started, he soon revealed a lyrical and musical talent that were far more developed than in any other folk-singer of his or any previous generation. Bob Dylan was the single most influential musician of the 1960s. He started the fire. He turned music into a form of mass communication. He galvanized a generation through folk songs that became anthems. Then he embraced rock music and re-defined it as a genre of metaphysical, free-form compositions. Then he turned his back to rock music and delved into country-rock. The entire world of rock music followed his every step. Dylan has a voice that doesn't seem the least interested in following the melody. The difference is that Dylan doesn't sing his songs, he lives them. The others sound better because they only sing them. http://www.scaruffi.com/vol1/dylan.html Old Time Rock n Roll is a favorite of mine. Episode 34, however, unfortunately dismissed Bob Dylan's influence, genius and talent with an off-hand comment about his voice and the opinion he should've stuck to music writing. It would be hard to dispute that a song like "The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll" as performed by Dylan has unmatched & monumental impact; an American Idol-type rating of his voice is and insulting & irrelevant to its meaning and importance. Maybe a show of Bob Dylan covers would appeal to you as a way to pay homage to him. "The measure of his popularity should not be measured by the ten million records he sold (nothing compared to the Beatles or the Beach Boys) but by the 150 covers of his songs by others, a record never again repeated".
Really enjoy your podcasts - Reviewer: areacode270 03/04/07 08:02 AM EST
Full Comment: I'm 59 years old, and find myself being asked a lot of questions about old time rock and roll music, by my children and grandchildren and younger co-workers who never got to live the "good years" in music (1950-1965). Also at class reunions and such (I graduated 1965) we talk a lot about the music of our youth. The problem is, I never really got into the music. I was more interested in souped up cars and building my own souped up '56 chevy. I never really liked music a lot, until just recently, and the bug really hit me. I am now buying ipods, every rock n roll CD I can find, DVDs about rock stars lives such as "The Buddy Holly" story, etc. I can't get enough Old Time Rock N Roll now. I am becoming somewhat of an expert on it now, and can "talk the talk" with just about anybody. I have recorded every episode of Lee Douglas' podcast and have them all on my iPod. I listen to them all the time. The best part of them is not the songs (we already have all of them on CDs) but his personal thoughts and comments about the stars and the history of each singer. Lee occasionally apoligizes about talking too much, but please don't stop! That is what makes your show good (and unique), is your personal experience of the era, and your experience with meeting them and interviewing them and passing that on to us. Your experience is worth a million dollars, and the greatest asset to your show. Please talk MORE ! We want to know. We can listen to songs anywhere and anytime, but we are thirsty for knowledge and personal information that only people like you still can give us. Keep up the good works. Thanks.
