Mongo Santamaria - Stone Soul

Co-host Jeremy takes us into the fascinating life and incredible music of blues singer Alberta Hunter. We look at the various phases of her music career, which spanned most of the 20th century, with some time out for another occupation before returning with a final run of releases in the late Seventies and early Eighties.   If you like us support us at patreon.com/idbuythatpodcast to get exclusive content, or tell a friend about us.

Guest Melonie Bayl-Smith returns to discuss the 1975 Australian film Picnic at Hanging Rock and some pieces featured in it. Romanian panpipe player Gheorghe Zamfir is at the center of the discussion. We examine how some viewers find the film frustrating while others find it poignant, but few can deny Zamfir's panpipes.   If you like us support us at patreon.com/idbuythatpodcast to get exclusive content, or tell a friend about us.

Co-host Peter pulls the surprisingly uplifting soundtrack to the decidedly unpleasant 1970 American motion picture Joe. This low-budget film captured the country's polarized mood and became a surprise hit, introducing the world to actor Peter Boyle. Its soundtrack introduced the world to Exuma and features a couple choice cuts by Jerry "The Ice Man" Butler, among others.   If you like us support us at patreon.com/idbuythatpodcast to get exclusive content, or tell a friend about us.
