THROWBACK THURSDAY: A Weimar Interlude

Ninety seven years ago today, Aug. 11, 1919, Germany adopted a constitution hammered out in the city of Weimar, creating a representative democracy for the country.

The new government for the next 14 years would be unofficially known as The Weimar Republic.

The Weimar Republic era wasn't an easy time for Germany, which faced hyper-inflation, crushing debt, depression and and the rise of National Socialism.

But culturally, the '20s truly roared in the Weimar Republic,

It was the age of the cabaret in which art, theater, music and cinema thrived.

In honor of the Weimar constitution, here are a few samples of popular German music of that era.

Let's start with big, bawdy Berlin Singer Claire Waldoff,




Here's Harry Jackson's Tanz Orchestra.


Adolf Ginsburg's Orchestra performs "I Found a Million Dollar Baby"



Finally here is Lotte Lenya singing "Seeräuber Jenny" in the film version of The Three Penny Opera. Her husband was Kurt Weill, who composed the music for the play. Lenya was in the original 1928 Berlin stage production of the play.

WACKY WEDNESDAY: Golden Throats from the Vast Wasteland

Here is a bunch of songs by TV stars who probably wish they'd never sung them.

Let's start with Burt Ward, who portrayed Robin on Batman in the mid '60s. The song "Boy Wonder I Love You" is fairly typical '60s teen idol dreck. But it's teen idol dreck written and arranged by Frank Zappa! Plus, some of Zappa's original Mothers of Invention, including my late pal Jimmy Carl Black, played on the record.

As previously noted by Dangerous Minds, Ward wrote about the record in his 1995 autobiography, Boy Wonder: My Life in Tights.

They had incredibly long, scraggly hair, and clothes that appeared not to have been washed in this century if ever. These were musicians who became famous for tearing up furniture, their speakers, their microphones and even their expensive guitars onstage. They were maniacs!

... Their fearless leader and king of grubbiness was the late Frank Zappa. (The full name of the band was Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention.) After recording with me, Frank became an internationally recognized cult superstar, which was understandable; after working with me, the only place Frank could go was up.

The following video proves him right



Perhaps the greatest TV news anchor to never exist was Ted Baxter, portrayed on The Mary Tyler Moore Show by Ted Knight. Here's an ode from Ted to another television journalist Barbara Walters from his 1975 novelty album Hi Guys. I'm still searching for the restraining order Walters surely filed after hearing this.



And in this clip from NBC's Hullabaloo, (a music show I watched back in the mid '60s  even though it was hopelessly inferior to ABC's Shindig) Michael Landon -- Little Joe on Bonanza -- does the Freddie with Peter & Gordon
