More "Song Mirage" Transferred
Two more later episodes of "The James Stricklin Song Mirage" from the Tape and Record Show Enterprises audio cassette archives digitized tonight, after I listened to a six hour live "Stu's Show" podcast...
"James Stricklin Song Mirage: Episode 85. Broadcast Monday, December 30,1991 at 9:00pm central. Theme Music: Turn Up The Radio(Autograph). Hosts: James Stricklin, Albert Sims, Paul Morrison. Songs include: America the Beautiful(Whitney Houston), Blue Monday(Fats Domino), Gimme All Your Lovin'(ZZ Top), Blowing Kisses In The Wind(Paula Abdul).
James Stricklin Song Mirage: Episode 86. Broadcast Monday, January 13,1992 at 9:00pm central. Theme Music: Turn Up The Radio(Autograph). Hosts: James Stricklin, Albert Sims, Paul Morrison. Songs by Lynyrd Skynyrd include: Gimmie Three Steps, Ballad of Curtis Lowe, I Know A Little, What's Your Name."
The two episodes digitized tonight are from the brief TRSE "return" in 1991/92. If you get James, Paul, and I in the same room, all heck is bound to break loose, and it DOES. James says near the beginning of episode 85 he hopes to bring the "Song Mirage" back to higher standards, but Paul and I pretty much inform him that time has past. Apparently from references in the episode, it was also videotaped (I did have a camcorder at the time), but I'm not sure video still exists. If it does, it'd be a bitch to convert to digital with my current audio setup. Audio was always my primary concern at the time. Paul mentions it's one of the few times he's appeared on video without wearing a hat. James mentions Chef Hans before the ZZ Top tune, and Paul and I go into a routine spun off James' statement, me referencing a Monty Python sketch. At the end of the episode, the new weekly TRSE "broadcast" schedule is mentioned, and Paul goes into a rant having to follow "The Independent Sampler" on Wednesdays, calling it an "archaic piece of shit", since the actual local radio show Dennis Goodwin hosted had been off the air years earlier, but I had numerous, already edited half hours "in the can".
Episode 86 was another "themed" episode, featuring all Lynyrd Skynyrd songs. There were a few "giggles" by me while listening to this episode during the transfer, but the previous episode, I actually laughed out loud at parts. However, as with most recordings TRSE did back then, you had to BE there to "get it". Paul name drops Harper Gaushell at the end of this episode, who was a university professor he and I attended audiophile audio meetings at his residence monthly around that time.
