Episode #61: Let’s All Congratulate Us with Another Cup of Tea
Friday, February 28th, 2014Can you stand another theme show? We’re guessing that you can swallow just one more as we present a second annual program of movie music to coincide with the Oscar telecast.
Lots of MGM and other musicals because we love them and because they’re so well-collected, but Tarantino is represented, and Hitchcock, and we have Elvis and even Shelley Duvall. Lots of Disney, and we have Mancini and Morricone plus some cool recent stuff, some of it a cappella. Again we hit every decade from the 1940s right on up to the one that we’re in (the twenty-teens?).
We promise a return to normalcy next time but we still think you might like this one a lot too.
