Back in 2004 before I made "normal" mashups, I did weird, wild, & wacky blends that developed into the "Frikkenfrack" series collecting my strangest tracks. The series roared into the lead of any of my albums. My theory is that not many people make that kind of blend, so there's a large untapped market for them.
I still continue this series, as I love novelty music, plus modern extraction techniques make mono music the preferred style. On this volume, the first double disc of the series, you'll find quite old music given a big face-lift. Check out tracks using Cab Calloway, Groucho Marx, The Andrews Sisters, & Danny Kaye, among many others.
The preview track "Black Saltarello" ( AC/DC vs Dead Can Dance )
( www.hulkshare.com/djuseo/black-salterello )
is a perfect example of what I want when I make these goofy tracks. It contains the familiar classic rock song "Back In Black" juxtaposed against the extinct medieval stylings of DCD's "Saltarello". Whenever I play this for a live audience, they scream with glee!
Over the course of the genre clash found here, you'll discover the country vs dubstep of "Where's My Convoy" ( C. W. McCall vs TC vs Caspa ) , the pop vs music hall of "Me and Julio On The Loose" ( Paul Simon vs Borrah Minevitch & his Harmonica Rascals ), & the square dance calling vs heavy techno of "Hillbilly Hyph Mngo Hare" ( Bugs Bunny vs Joy Orbison ) .
Overall, there's 54 whacked-out combos, all with included cover art.
• Pianist J.W. "Blind" Boone owned a watch that cost $1,000, an enormous amount of money at the time. He used the watch to play a practical joke on children, whom he told that the watch could foretell the future. In 1888, he told one group of children that the watch had told him that Benjamin Harrison would defeat Grover Cleveland and become President of the United States. In fact, Harrison did defeat Cleveland, and so the children believed that Blind Boone's watch could predict the future.
• Leo Slezak would sometimes play a joke on small-town German audiences. During a concert, he would sing a little-known piece by a giant of music such as Schubert or Schumann, then say that his pianist had written the music just recently. The small-town German audience would applaud as the pianist took his bows.
Prejudice
• In the early 1970s, all-girl bands were largely regarded as novelty acts, making it difficult for the real thing - all-woman rock band Fanny - to find acceptance. After considering a number of women's names for the name of the band and deciding on "Fanny," band members then discovered that their record company's publicity department was coming up with slogans such as the double-meaning "Get behind Fanny." Occasionally, people thought that Fanny was an all-female vocal group who sang topless while the real band, composed of men, played the musical instruments. While touring in Joliet, Illinois, band members discovered that the promoters were expecting a topless band. Some of the costumes the record company had the band wear were skimpy and risqué, getting them banned from London's Palladium at one point. Bass guitarist Jean Millington remembers, "I wore a tank top made from coins. I had to wear pasties or the coins would pinch my nipples. June's outfit was turquoise, Jean wore crystals, and Nickey's shirt had sequins. It was all very Las Vegas showgirl." Nickey Barclay played keyboards, June Millington (Jean's older sister) played lead guitar, and Alice de Buhr played drums. When they recorded their first album - self-titled - few people took them seriously. Alice remembers, "We got asked all the time about the male studio musicians who must've played on the album. Those questions stopped after the third or fourth album." Despite the BS, Fanny released six albums and had two top-40 hits:"Charity Ball" (1971, #40) and "Butter Boy" (1975, #29). In the liner notes to Fanny's 2002 4-CD compilation First Time in a Long Time, Bonnie Raitt calls Fanny a "real rock band full of smart, tough, and talented women - who could really play."
• African-American jazz musician Branford Marsalis has faced racism. As a student in Boston, he and two white friends went into an all-white and very tough neighborhood in South Boston. Some white teenagers with baseball bats saw Branford and didn't like his color, so they attacked him and his friends. Branford got away and ran for help to a gas station. A really big white man with a chain came to the rescue. He told Branford, "They're [messing] with you 'cause you're black, aren't they? I hate that." Then the man and his son rescued Branford's friends. Branford, noting the white man's help, says, "I can't really indict the whole neighborhood."
In March, 1964, Phil Spector produced her first single, the commercially unsuccessful "Ringo, I Love You", recorded under the name Bonnie Jo Mason. By what name is Bonnie Jo Mason more famously known?
"Lupang Hinirang" (Tagalog '"Chosen Land"'; originally Marcha Nacional Filipina, the "Philippine National March") is the national anthem of the Philippines. Its music was composed in 1898 by Julián Felipe, and the lyrics were adapted from the Spanish poem Filipinas, written by José Palma in 1899. Originally written it did not have lyrics when it was adopted as the anthem of the revolutionary First Philippine Republic and subsequently played during the proclamation of Philippine independence on June 12, 1898.
Under American rule, the Flag Act of 1907 prohibited the public display of flags, banners, emblems, or devices used by revolutionaries in the Philippine-American War. Under this law, the colonial government banned the song from being played. The Flag Law was repealed in 1919. Under the Commonwealth, Commonwealth Act - 382, approved on September 5, 1938, officially adopted the musical arrangement and composition by Julián Felipe as the national anthem.
The Spanish lyrics were translated into Tagalog beginning in the 1940s, with the current Filipino version from 1956 undergoing a slight revision in the 1960s. Over the years, several English versions came into use. On February 12, 1998, Republic Act - 8491 codified the current Filipino lyrics into law.

Ahead of a speech at Mt. Rushmore, President Donald Trump (R-Failure) played several of Neil Young's songs, including "Rockin' in the Free World" before and after he left the stage. Neil Young, as you might imagine, wasn't happy about it.
Now, Young has written another open letter to Trump, which was posted on his Neil Young Archives site.
"Although I have repeatedly asked you to please not use my music because it indicates that I support your agenda, you have always played my songs anyway at your gatherings, with no regard for my rights, even calling me names on twitter," Young wrote.
"Because you are in charge of the Covid 19 response here in the USA, I will not sue you, (as certainly is my right) potentially distracting from your important work at hand protecting and saving American lives," he continued. "With the enormous power you wield on our behalf, I wish you all the best in your critical battle to save American souls from this threat. I know you will do your best for all Americans, regardless of political leanings. I give you my encouragement in your efforts to Unify America."
Young concluded by writing, "I suggest you listen to my song 'Lookin' For A Leader 2020,' available on my website, neilyoungarchives.com as part of a work I recently completed with my wife- "The Porch Episode," as I believe it would be an interesting addition to your next rally."
Gather 'round, kids: John Mulaney and his ever-precocious Sack Lunch Bunch are reconvening for a few more enlightening specials. Unlike the first mellifluous, super fun romp, the new episodes will not premiere on Netflix. Instead, the specials are heading to Comedy Central, per a report by Variety.
Mulaney has signed on to headline and executive produce at least two more John Mulaney & The Sack Lunch Bunch installments. There are no further details as to when they will air; however, Variety notes that one of the specials will be "holiday-themed" and will reunite the original cast from the well-received December 2019 event. ""I was an intern at Comedy Central when I was barely older than the kids in the Sack Lunch Bunch. I wasn't a very good intern, so I am psyched," Mulaney said in a press release. "They hired me again. We are thrilled to bring these specials to Comedy Central: a place where I have had so many good times."
The move is a part of Comedy Central's attempt at rebranding, which includes more topical specials, original films and programming, and a bolstered adult animation slate. Recently, the network announced a long-awaited Daria spinoff series-which will center Jodie Landon and star Tracee Ellis Ross-as a part of this effort. With production still at a halt, further developments might take a while to materialize. The first Sack Lunch Bunch special is still streaming on Netflix.
Original Beatles drummer Pete Best let bygones be bygones as he wished Ringo Starr a happy 80th birthday on Tuesday.
Starr (real name Richard Starkey) replaced the musician in 1962 when the group was managed by Brian Epstein in a decision which caused controversy.
Best, 78, tweeted: "Thought about it and thought why not. Happy Birthday Ringo. It's a special one. Have a good day."
Epstein fired him from the Beatles in 1962 at the behest of members John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison, paving the way for Starr to step in.
After spending time in other groups, Best went to work as a civil servant for 20 years. He returned to the music industry in 1988 with the Pete Best Band.
Netflix's latest hit reality competition show Floor Is Lava reimagines the childhood thrill of pretending to avoid gooey, bubbling lava while overcoming makeshift obstacles. Reminiscent of the '90s adventure show Legends of the Hidden Temple, Floor Is Lava also drew inspiration from movies like Raiders of the Lost Ark and video games like Uncharted.
The team that best avoids falling into the lava and earns the most points wins. The grand prize? A whopping $10,000 and the opportunity to meet Floor Is Lava host Rutledge Wood.
While watching the fun and (inevitably messy) show, folks are naturally becoming curious about the lava itself. Is it actually hot? What goes into the gooey mixture?
According to what show creators Irad Eyal and Megan McGrath told The Hollywood Reporter, the lava is a secret proprietary blend made by "Hollywood's biggest chemists and slime/goopy substance-makers." Per Vulture, the final product is the result of three months of research during which "at least 50 different formulas" were tested.
Native American tribes have been refused access to coronavirus data that has been made readily available to states by the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Organisations representing Native American tribes have had their requests to see data about how the virus is spreading around their lands turned down by the CDC, according to Politico.
Michigan and Massachusetts authorities have also turned down requests from tribal epidemiologists for data and have refused to make agreements on contact tracing.
The states have reportedly cited privacy concerns as the reason for not handing over data and have questioned the tribes' legal standing as sovereign groups, according to eight tribal leaders who spoke to Politico.
Native Americans have been badly affected by the virus, and in May, Doctors Without Borders sent a team of medical staff to help the Navajo Nation as their reservation had surpassed New York for per capita coronavirus cases to become the worst hit in the country.
Democratic Sen. Tammy Duckworth of Illinois in a one-sentence tweet countering the Fox Rupert "News" host propagandist Tucker Carlson on Monday evening, hours after the TV personality made flippant remarks about her military service and her demeanor.
"Does @TuckerCarlson want to walk a mile in my legs and then tell me whether or not I love America?" the double-amputee Army National Guard veteran said on Twitter.
Duckworth deployed to Iraq as a pilot in 2004, where she lost both her legs after her helicopter was struck by a rocket-propelled grenade. She went on to win a House seat in 2012 and was elected to the US Senate in 2016.
"You're not supposed to criticize Tammy Duckworth in any way because she once served in the military," Carlson said on his Monday show. "Most people just ignore her. But when Duckworth does speak in public, you're reminded what a deeply silly and unimpressive person she is."
He added: "Well, it's long been considered out of bounds to question a person's patriotism. It's a very strong charge and we try not ever to make it. But in the face of all of this, the conclusion can't be avoided: These people actually hate America, there's no longer a question about that."
Former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn (R-Turkey) appeared to signal his support for the far-right QAnon conspiracy theory on the July 4 holiday by posting a video to his Twitter reciting an oath of duty that ends with a QAnon slogan.
"Where we go one, we go all," the retired three-star US Army lieutenant general and five other people say in the video, a phrase that has been adopted by followers of the shadowy "Q" figure who leads the growing community of conspiracy theorists.
The conspiracy theory, which arose in October 2017, maintains, without evidence, that a corrupt "deep state" of paedophiles, cannibals and otherwise malign individuals within the US government (and all over the world) control everything that happens in it - and that Donald Trump is in a shadow war to put an end to the evildoers' reign.
Mr Flynn's video on Saturday, in which he and his friends recite the congressional oath of office to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic," is one of several recent indications that he has embraced his martyr status among QAnon believers.
He has added the QAnon hashtag "#TakeTheOath" to his Twitter bio and penned several columns employing similar language and imagery as other QAnon believers, the Daily Beast has reported.
The White House has insisted that the US is being looked at as a "leader" in the fight against coronavirus, even as cases continue to spiral across the country.
The latest comments came at a White House press briefing on Monday, when press secretary Kayleigh McEnany was questioned about the country's handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
"I think the world is looking at us as a leader in Covid-19," Ms McEnany replied.
The US remains the country with the highest number of coronavirus infections with over 2.9 million recorded cases, almost double the number of Brazil, the country immediately behind it.
Although the White House insists that the pandemic is under control, the number of cases in the country continue to rise, and President Donald Trump's approval rating is seemingly plummeting amid the health crisis.
