Comedy on Vinyl Podcast Episode 146 – Joseph Scrimshaw on Morey Amsterdam – The Next One Will Kill You

July 29, 2015July 29, 20151 min read Comedy on Vinyl

Joseph Scrimshaw is back! And this time, we do something I’ve been waiting to do a long time on this show – let the guest pick from the archive and we both listen to it, fresh. This week, we listen to one of two comedy albums (in the same year) by “The Human Joke Machine,” Morey Amsterdam. Perhaps best known as Buddy on The Dick Van Dyke Show, here he rattles off joke after joke in a variety of strange, fun little songs, and we pick it apart.

Comedy on Vinyl Podcast Episode 145 – Christopher Bay on Shelley Berman – Inside Shelley Berman

July 22, 2015July 23, 20151 min read Comedy on Vinyl

Every once in awhile, because of this show, I’m fortunate enough to meet an official archivist for a legend. This week, I talk with Christopher Bay, who is the archivist for not only Shelley Berman, but for Woody Woobdury. Christopher talks about his experiences with Shelley, including discovering him and imitating him from a young age. We do talk a bit about this, Shelley’s first album, but it’s pretty all-inclusive, especially with this episode’s final clip – a rarity, courtesy Christopher himself.

Comedy on Vinyl Podcast Episode 144 – Justin Michael on The Muppets – The Muppet Show Album

July 9, 2015July 13, 20152 min read Comedy on Vinyl

He co-hosts the Before You Were Funny podcast and Batman: The Animated Podcast. Turns out, he’s also the first person to bring The Muppets to the show. Another surprise first turns out to be a brilliant piece of work, especially given that we’re supposed to imagine animated felt for 45 minutes. Not only are the voice characterizations typically great, but the sound design and the joke choices are spot-on, especially the kind you need to see for full effect. It really holds up as it’s own piece of comedy work outside of The Muppet Show itself, and was a lot of fun to talk about.

Comedy on Vinyl Podcast Episode 143 – Eban Schletter on Spike Jones – Thank You Music Lovers

July 1, 2015January 17, 20172 min read Comedy on Vinyl

Podcast listeners will know the sounds of his nimble fingers from the background of many a Paul F. Tompkins podcast, and sketch comedy fans will know his music from Mr. Show. Eban Schletter is not only a great musical improviser, but a guy who maybe, sort of, fell into comedy as a genre. Although, on reflection, it kind of seems inevitable. In this episode, we talk about how Eban’s dad introduced him to Spike Jones at the age of 21, and how that may or may not have changed his career trajectory.

Janet Varney stops by her own home to delve into Albert Brooks’ classic “Comedy Minus One” for our second go-round with this album. This time, we get a picture of an entirely new experience – namely, someone who grew up without the script to the act-along segment! This made for an e

This week I’m joined by the amazingly talented James Bladon (the music for Superego and their alter-egos The Journeymen and the music editor for countless TV shows) and my great friend and talented person in his own right Jeremy Guskin to discuss (deep breath) “The Album Of The Soundtrack Of

Comedy on Vinyl Podcast Episode 140 – Greg Benson on The Credibility Gap – A Great Gift Idea

June 10, 2015June 10, 20151 min read Comedy on Vinyl

The awesome Greg Benson breaks down the first Credibility Gap album we’ve covered, track-by-track. It’s his favorite, and it’s not hard to see why. Irreverent, razor-sharp satire with the kind of production values anyone would be jealous of. It’s a shame they made so few records together, bu

June 3, 2015June 3, 20151 min read Comedy on Vinyl

Of course, the full title is “How Can You Be in Two Places at Once When You’re Not Anywhere at All,” and it’s one of the great Firesign albums. One half Firesign fever dream, and the other half a long-form Nick Danger adventure, this is the first album that ever exposed Firesign to me as a kid

He inspired the guy who inspired this podcast. He’s the ultimate curator of novelty music, a music historian, an expert on the history of recorded sound and of comedy, and he was the sound of a generation of comedy lovers. He might have invented what it means to be a comedy nerd, whether you
