There are podcasts about the novel, there are podcasts about the 1991 film; now there's a podcast that looks at these two things from the perspective of the soundtrack to the movie.
I hear you Fanny, but we are what we are...please stick around for the rest. You might enjoy the Tutti Frutti episode, even Tom managed the odd guffaw on that one.
Listened to another big chunk and enjoyed, especially drilling down into Harmolodics. I knew a chap who attended a lecture by OC in the 90s following which he earwigged Lol Coxhill confessing utter bewilderment in the lavvies. WSB turns up in the OC docu 'Made In America' doing a reading at the opening of the Caravan of Dreams in Fort Worth, so they were apparently acquainted at least 8 years prior to the film. Barre Phillips, the bassist on the trio parts of the score, recalls somewhere getting a call to drop everything to make the session whilst in Paris celebrating his first grandchild's birth. Will sample Pynchon and King Tutenfrutti but think you pair should do a spot on how your bedtime rituals have been affected by screen sirens like Gina Lolollabridga and Greta Garbo.
Who in their right mind wouldn't bump a grandkid's birthday for THAT gig?
Thanks for mentioning Lol Coxhill, a seriously underrated player. But I dunno how to get Gav to listen to him except by buying him smelly old LPs.
I'm convinced OC came up with the name Harmolodics specifically to provoke chin-scratching questions about theory that he could turn into head-scratching with some oracular bafflegab. Sheer genius.
As for Gina and Greta, yes! but I think we should do that as a video live stream, no?
Bless you, Fanny! We do the podcast for moments like this, when we can feel a connection to others who swim in the same strange seas. Please feel free to point out anything we get wrong.
Great subject for cultural speleology but lighten up a bit, chaps.

Idk, Gav. As it turned out, that ep is another in our series on suicide.
Ha ha ha ha HAAAA!
