As seen on TV. Ok, as seen on Instagram? Anywho, we're nearing albums with titles that begin with the letter H but that doesn't mean there isn't plenty of fun stuff for us here.
Season 5, Episode 41 blazes through 16 songs in a mere 62 minutes! Blink and you might miss it.
Your Old Pal Will's 2021 Ear Worm of the Day playlist continues along nicely. Since the last Amplifier, I've added Dean & Britta, Brian Eno/John Cale, Moon Duo, The Left Banke, Be Bop Deluxe, Widowspeak, and The The. Hope you enjoy it!
Inside a Monkey's Brain
S05E41 Cover Image: Sean Connery looking confident in a terrycloth romper in Goldfinger (Hamilton, 1964). Why? Because in this episode we get to enjoy Mantovani's rendition of the Goldfinger theme song.
S05E41 Music behind the DJ: "James Bond with Bongos" by John Barry. Why? Bond. James Bond. With bongos!
S05E41 Amplifier: Fry stashes his stash in a Ronco Record Vault in the Futurama episode "The Luck of the Fryish" (Season 3, Episode 8). Why? As seen on TV, just like K-Tel's Hit Machine!
When next we meet, weβll continue our journey through albums with titles that begin with the letter H as in Hotel, and we just might make it into albums with titles that begin with the letter I as in India. Join me, wonβt you?
