4th of July Extravaganza! Shane and I look at a century old piece of music writing: "Does the Jazz put the Sin in Syncopation?" an insane work about Jazz music turning you into a violent, lazy, flapper with a Bolshevik element.
WARNING:
A lot of profanity in this episode, we were agitated by losing the first recording of this episode and worked a bit bluer than normal.

Original Description:
Part 2 and the end of movie month. This time we look at Pauline Kael's infamous review of The Sound of Music, and by "look at" I mean read the entirety of. The review was first published in the New Yorker and then collected in Kael's book Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang. The book is one of those old hardcovers with the insanely loud plastic cover, so get ready to hear that a lot.

Original Description:
Movie month concludes with a two part tape. Part 1 features Shane and I going over the rock documentary classic Decline of Western Civilization Part II.
All audio featured is from the documentary "The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years" directed by Penelope Spheeris with the exception of the opening (which is Miles Davis's "Generique" as usual).
I fixed the file sizes.
Original Description:
Just me again. I wanted to provide a very brief history of Jazz in film, starting with The Jazz Singer. Not much of a comedy episode, admittedly. As a side note, I use "era" when I mean "legacy" a few times.
Music Featured (in order)
Miles Davis - "Generique"
The Jazz Singer - "Toot, Toot, Tootsie!" (movie clip)
Louis Armstrong - "Hello Dolly"
Detective Conan OST - "Conan's Victory Theme"

Shane and I look at the bands behind the legendary compilation album No New York.
Disclaimer:
Another mistake is confusing Rip it Up and Start Again by Simon Reynolds with the book No New York by Thurston Moore. The later book was the expensive one with the nice pictures. The Elvis Costello quote is from a review of Rip it Up and Start again, not the actual book. Though it's Costello's quote either way.

CHECK YOUR VOLUME, I tried making the recording louder this time so be careful. People who listen to these on the train need to be able to turn it down but still hear it.
This time Greg is back to talk videogame music and the bands inspired by them, instead we talk about Silent Hill 2.
