"STICKY!!" A New Kind Of Mambo Vol. 29 | Twilightzone

Mo’ MAMBO!

 "STICKY!!" A New Kind Of Mambo Vol. 29

"Dancing is pure and it feels good. Our bodies are supposed to be mobilized. We sit at work. We drive everywhere. Friday and Saturday night are for dancing. You guys are stupid! Look at these girls. They're dancing…
...You guys wondering why you don't get laid?Y ou're not dancing with the pretty girls. People of my parents' generation, that's how they fell in love! Dancing was their first physical contact. 'Honey, I know your father is a brute, but you've got to understand... he used to be such a dancer!'It's part of the mating ritual. Unfortunately, the mating ritual now is meeting for coffee and talking on the internet. There's no glory in that. No wonder all these guys are emaciated, effeminate,fucking little dorks. No wonder I don't have sex with anyone, I'd fucking break them.

 "SHUFFLIN' HUNGARIANS" A New Kind Of Mambo Vol. 11

Cool R&B with a mambo twist!
Now someone knows their Fess! What a rare treat from the collection  of Johnny Q and posted by Gyro1966 over at THE TWILIGHTZONE. Professor Longhair, of whom we have spoken often, had an early incarnation of Nawleans equivalent Tin Pan Alley as 'Prof Longhair and The Shuffling Hungarians' and the connections here are superlative and really well researched and put together by the boys. Enjoy! (I did!) [now to collect all the other previous volumes!]

Professor Longhair And His Shuffling Hungarians - Mardi Gras In New Orleans 1949

it was the case as we learned from Dr John (Mac Rebbenack) that Fess would release this single every year for Nawleans Mardi Gras but this was the realist I could find





Professor Longhair And His Shuffling Hungarians - She Ain’t Got No Hair 1949

a visitor to the YouTube page noted: "This is the original recorded as by Professor Longhair on the Star Talent label in 1949. He-recorded it as "Bald Head" by "Roy Byrd" at a faster tempo for Mercury and it became his biggest R&B hit in 1950."

I'm Waiting for the Man - The Velvet Underground Live 1969 - live on film and audio 1969 | TWILIGHTZONE

 I'm Waiting for the Man - The Velvet Underground Live 1969 (4K)


Audio taken from October 19, 1969, End of Cole Ave. club, Dallas. 
Picture taken from October 15, 1969, Dallas Peace Moratorium.

For such a groundbreaking band, the Velvet Underground has little footage of them performing live. That was why in 2019 is was extremely exciting to see Texas film archives uncover three films of the Velvet Underground performing at the Dallas Peace Moratorium on October 15th, 1969. These films where: a short 16mm documentary of the event with some audio and picture of the Velvets performing (and Sterling Morrison being interviewed), a silent 16mm B-roll of outtakes from this doc, and a silent 8mm home movie shot from the audience.

I was curious, would it be possible to take all of this footage and try to sync it to a live recording for an approximation of what it would've been like to see the Velvet Underground perform live?

Luckily only a few days after the event on October 19th, a fan would make one of the best live recordings of the Velvet Underground at the End of Cole Ave. club in Dallas.

So now the hard part was, which song has the most footage them playing? From the doc there were sync sound snippets of "I'm Waiting for the Man", "Beginning to See the Light", and "I'm Set Free". To figure out the silent footage, I had to do a lot of lip reading. And as luck would have it, most of the other silent footage was also of "Waiting for the Man".

With another stroke of luck, it appears like they performed "Waiting for the Man" almost identically across the two shows. So with a little bit of fudging, I tried to get "Beginning to See the Light", "I'm Set Free", and all the other footage synced up to the best of my ability. It's not perfect, but I'm very happy with the results.

A big thanks to the Texas Archive of the Moving Image, and the G. William Jones Film & Video Collection at SMU for posting such incredible footage!
