Welcome to another episode of Vinyl-O-Matic, dear friends. We have finally arrived at Albums with Titles that Begin with the Letter C as in Charlie. You can follow along with the show notes by pointing your browser in the direction of vinylomatic(dot)com(slash)S05E14, where you will also find the topic for this week's Listener Challenge. Let us begin with a little trip to the Weimar Republic. I'll be darned... I think that set worked out pretty well. We started things off with Joel Grey performing "Two Ladies" from the Cabaret Original Motion Picture Soundtrack. If you haven't ever seen Cabaret the film, I can certainly recommend it. You can also hunt back into the Vinyl-O-Matic archives to find the Vinyl-O-Matic Movie of the Month episode. After that, we heard from the great Brazilian musician Caetano Veloso and his song "O LeĆ£ozinho" from a self-titled Nonesuch release from 1986, featuring lyrics translated by Arto Lindsay. We then transitioned into a selection from one of my Top 10 albums of 2019. "Desert of Absurdity" is the name of the track we heard from Mizmor's release Cairn on Gilead Media. Next up, we have some fine guitarscape from Wymond Miles. All right. That one goes out to all you Anne Murray fans out there. That was The King with his rendition of "Snowbird" from a post-humous compilation entitled A Canadian Tribute. Prior to that, we heard the classic Barry White jam "Can't Get Enough of Your Love, Babe" from his 1974 20th Century Records album Can't Get Enough. We heard from Stephen Malkmus *and friends* and their jammy version of "Spoon". This is from a Matador record store day release on translucent green vinyl that featured a live recording of Mr. Malkmus & friends performing the classic Can album Ege Bamyasi in honor of it's 40th anniversary. At the top of the set, we had the sonic guitar wizard from the Fresh & Onlys Wymond Miles with the track "Devil's Blue Eyes" on his 3rd solo release Call by Night on Sacred Bones Records from 2016. And now for some mid-period Siouxsie Sioux and the Banshees. Welcome back. At the top of that set, we had Siouxsie and the Banshees 12" single Candyman from 1987, which topped out at number 34 on the UK charts. We heard some very dramatic theme music by Jerry Goldsmith from the original motion picture sound track to Capricorn One, a 1978 film featuring James Brolin, Sam Waterson, OJ Simpson, Elliot Gould, and the great Karen Black. We heard the return of Neil Sedaka as interpreted by The Captain and Tenille with "Love Will Keep Us Together" from their 1977 greatest hits compilation. I love all the little keyboard elements that pop up throughout that song. Nice work, Cap'n! Rounding things out, we heard from Men at Work with their excellent pop song "Overkill" off of their 1983 triple-platinum sophomore album Cargo. Moving right along, how do you get to Carnegie Hall? Why practice practice practice of course. Bleh! Spooky, eh? That was the main title theme from the Netflix television series Castlevania. While you might think that series would be greasy kids stuff, you'd be wrong. If you think you might have even the slightest interest in that animated series, definitely check it out. We heard from The Decemberists with their jaunty tune entitled "The Legionnaires Lament" from their 2002 Jealous Butcher/Hush Records release Castaways and Cutouts. Before that, The Cars brought us their mighty fine pop tune "My Best Friend's Girl" complete with a Muswell Hillbilly guitar riff from their 1978 debut self-titled album. Kicking that set-off, we had Benny Goodman and company performing Count Basie's "One O'Clock Jump" from the famous 1937 Carnegie Hall Jazz Concert. This is a 1963 mono reissue package on Columbia and features such greats as Goodman, Basie, Lionel Hampton, Harry James, Gene Krupa, Cootie Williams, Johnny Hodges, and Lester Young.
