A week or so ago I heard on the radio that NFL's Monday Night Football was replacing whatever theme song it's been using for 24 years(?) with a remixed version of Rip It Up by Little Richard. This is supposed to be it, but I only heard the few seconds they played on the radio during the announcement.

I have a suggestion for the NFL who has provided some funding for the marxists burning down our cities.

Go pound sand.

I liked that song Tom and never heard it before, so I looked it up online while listening. First it was on the 1990 Keepers of the Flame album by a band called Phoenyx. Then it was part of the "War Trilogy" on Midsummer by Heather Alexander in 1997: Tomorrow I Leave For Battle, a love ballad, March Of Cambreadth, about the battle, and Courage Knows No Bounds, looking back on the battle. Wikipedia says March Of Cambreadth has been featured in a few novels too. And Heather Alexander is some guy named Alexander James Adams who wrote the song in the late 1980s. I thought it sounded a lot older than that. He, she, or it is full of surprises. And I'm not willing to learn 54 new pronouns or whatever it's up to now to be "gender inclusive". I like it no matter what their gender is.

I always think it's strange when I find out about someone with one of those female/male name and/or gender changes. Like when I found out that Wendy Carlos, the winner of three Grammy Awards for the 1969 album Switched-On Bach, used to be Walter Carlos. He had a sex-change operation in 1972 after 4 years of taking female hormones. They needed the money they got from the commercial success of Switched-On Bach to afford the "Bobbitt". She helped Robert Moog with the development of the Moog synthesizer, and was the person who first made them popular. She also wrote the scores to the movies A Clockwork Orange, The Shining, and Tron. She did Peter & the Wolf/Carnival of the Animals – Part II with "Weird Al" Yankovic, which was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Album for Children. I believe I mentioned before the album Beauty in the Beast where the entire album is synthesized, including the voices singing. "All the music and sounds heard on this recording were directly digitally generated. This eliminates all the limitations of microphones, the weak link necessary in nearly all other digital recordings, including those that use 'sampling' technologies." Her videos usually get taken down quickly leaving mostly tributes by unknowns.

Larry Fast thanks Wendy Carlos for advice on at least one of his CDs. He made 11 albums under the name Synergy, was in progressive rock band Nektar, played synthesizers for Peter Gabriel on records and on tour, on a couple of Foreigner albums, on Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart", and the list goes on. His first Synergy album, in 1975, Electronic Realizations for Rock Orchestra, was Number 66 on the Billboard 200 for 18 weeks. In 1976 Sequencer was Number 144 for 11 weeks, and in 1978 Cords was No 146 for 6 weeks. A lot of his stuff is on YouTube including full albums. Here's a song off each of the first 3 albums. I think Cords was the first one I ever heard. My older brother had it on a transparent LP. The song I posted from it goes farther from natural sounds than most of his stuff to that point.

I've had Synergy music running through my mind day and night anytime something else isn't occupying my mind. I probably will until I listen to a CD or two of it. But maybe some music with real instruments will push it aside.

I haven't watched that show yet but I saved a shortcut to my desktop after you posted something about it on here. It looks really interesting. I was listening to free Spotify while I was preparing lunch and I've been going though a playlist called Made In Wales. It has some people and songs I know like Tom Jones doing his "sexy Welsh thing", people I've heard of but never listened to like Charlotte Church, songs I've heard but didn't know who did them, and songs by people I'm familiar with but didn't know were Welsh. Here are a few I heard Thursday.

I Heard Him Knocking but didn't know he was Welsh

I heard this on the radio a bunch of times and didn't know who it was or the name of the song. I didn't really care either.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2BUEzdjfpY

This sounds familiar, just the music, not the vocals. I heard this song somewhere before, or the music was stolen from a song I haven't figured out yet.

Bonus video! I had to hear it.

I think I know where that music was stolen from. Anyone care to vote? Yea or Nay? 


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YS7sWCG_ZE

ETA: Wikipedia says "Juxtapozed with U" was inspired by the Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder track "Ebony and Ivory" as well as the work of Marvin Gaye and Caetano Veloso. The track was originally conceived as a duet, with the band approaching both Brian Harvey from East 17, and Bobby Brown to sing alongside Gruff Rhys. Both turned the band down so Rhys sang the verses through a vocoder to imitate another person, something which he has described as a "very schizophrenic thing to do". Rhys has claimed his lyrics address social injustice and are about "house prices going up, and people being left behind by the super rich". The song has echoes of the Philadelphia soul music of the 1970s as well as David Bowie's "plastic" approximation of the sound on his 1975 album Young Americans. The group tried to make the song as "plastic" as possible: "if we'd tried to make it sound authentic, it would have been awful."

It sounded to me like it was inspired by the second half of the song posted here that doesn't have that wickety sound in it.
