Hour of Slack 860 -- Old Timey Rants & Hymns At 5X-Day, Rev. Dr. Humdinger handed me a stack of 8 CDs containing his favorite bits from Hours of Slack... YEARS' worth of Hour of Slack, which he had taped off the air. Some of the bits had air hiss and static, but others sound clearer than I remember the originals sounding. Among the much-played songs and rants that ended up on our compilation CDs, there were also numerous marvels which I had probably played once on the show in the early 90s and then never played again... lost, forgotten recordings by lost, forgotten individuals. I probably have the original tapes somewhere among my racks of cassettes, but just ripping them off Humdinger's CD was MUCH FASTER. I am trying to do these shows FAST because I've got other irons in the fire. So far, tossed-salad new shows continue to be no more time consuming than making CD reruns from old cassette shows would be. Thus, this show was assembled from a combination of the current-events ESO radio live stuff recorded last night at the station, and a Frankenstein's grave-robbing of oldies that happened to already have been digitized. I have no idea who did three of the excellent "Bob" Songs on this show! (That information WILL come to me in future tape-sortings.) Two of Papa Joe Mama's asshole-tearingest rants appear on this tape, one a studio production, and one live in a church in Pittsburgh. (The devival where Legume fired a shotgun through the ceiling.) With this show I finished reprocessing the last of the "Minutes of Slack" from 1985, of which there were 20. I have been gradually working my way through this old series. These were produced by me at home at the suggestion of a radio professional who thought that short palatable rants might be syndicatable. That never happened, but they certainly are MP3-able. Now that I've finished improving the sound on all 20, I'll probably put them all on alt.binaries.slack for whoever wants them. Spread them around your yard. The music on those Minutes of Slack is by DK Jones and Rev. Dr. Onan Canobite. And occasionally Dr. Chris Gross. Toothless SubCodgers will rejoice to hear two classic punk rock songs from the bands fronted by old, and in the last case, late, co-subfounders of the Church under "Bob": The Swingin' Love Corpses (Dr. Philo Drummond & Col. Sphinx Drummond) and The Pink Boyz (Doctor X). Notice that in "Johnny Got Robbed," Philo and Sphinx sing in strong working class British accents. The late Dr. X's "I Wanna Be a Football Hero" (The Pink Boyz) is autobiographical. This show also marks the first of the "Life Works of Zoogz Rift In Alphabetical Order" series, starting with the great SubGeniusly Objectivist song, "A Equals A." 1 Minute of Slack #1 "Slack" 01:15 2 Hour of Slack Mix -El Queso - Enturbulator 009 00:51 3 "A Place Called Church of SubGenii" by ...? 01:36 4 Papa Joe Mama - "Slack is Not for Sale" 02:16 5 The Swinging Love Corpses -- "Johnny Got Robbed" (Live @ Off Broadway, '91 05:05 6 Credits rant 01:12 7 Things To Come rant 1-"Stop Progress" 00:33 8 Zoogz Rift - "A Equals A" 05:04 9 Credit, Zoogz Addy 01:31 10 Sniper Report - Tesla Coil 00:22 11 ESO Radio 10-18-02 - "Tim Harvey McOswald, Sniper" 01:47 12 Little Fyodor - "You Will Die" 02:04 13 Credit, Lil Fyodor 00:41 14 LeMur cutup: "Bush Iraq Speech" 00:31 15 ESO Radio 10-18-02 - "Bush Girls; War Football Game" 02:19 16 "Football Hero" - The Pink Boyz 03:58 17 8Credit 00:19 18 ESO Radio 10-18-02 - "Mutant Fatbody Army" 03:38 19 "lack-pigs-pork-slack" -Heart Ignition 00:37 20 credits 00:45 21 "The Heart of O-ness" by...? 01:34 22 Papa Joe Mama - "What-If?"
