THERE IS A MOUNTAIN

IN FACT, THERE ARE A LOT OF RATHER MOUNTAINOUS OBJECTS HERE ON THE MOON.

So Dr. Janos Rukh undertook to gather together a group of mountainous melodies for you this week. They run the range from hard rock to folk, jazz to novelty record, lounge to reggae. Oh, and in case you were wondering, that's a photo of Mt. Rushmore up there. Before a bunch of white guys got their faces on it. So here we offer the summit of song listening:

BROWN MOUNTAIN LIGHT - The Kingston Trio
MOUNTAIN GREENERY - Bing Crosby
BIG ROCK CANDY MOUNTAIN - Harry McLintock
MY HOME'S ACROSS THE BLUE RIDGE MOUNTAINS - The Delmore Brothers
WHERE THE MOUNTAINS MEET THE MOON - The King Sisters
AIN'T NO MOUNTAIN HIGH ENOUGH - Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell
ROCKY MOUNTAIN WAY - Joe Walsh
HUSHABYE MOUNTAIN - Julie London
I'M THE GHOUL FROM WOLVERTON MOUNTAIN - Zacherley
KING OF THE MOUNTAIN - Kate Bush

INAUGURAL POSTING - THE CREATURE LIVES! Hello and welcome to my little experiment. It may thrill you a little and. . .chill you a little. It was my intention to have this be my "all audio" blog but naturally the amount (size) of audio I am able to put up here is minute in the extreme. My inaugural post was going to be an episode of the old radio show SUSPENSE featuring H.P. Lovecraft's "The Dunwich Horror" starring Ronald Colman. But of course a 24 minute soundfile was apparently too big. So, until I can somehow manage to either upload sound files at a lower quality so that they won't be too large to post (are you listening, Fink!), I will be posting smaller but by no means lesser audio files, songs and stories that I will be drawing down from the galaxy of Andromeda.

INSTRUCTIONS

The box above features this week's playlist of songs. Just click on the first song and they will all play in order. However, due to the vaguaries of the interweb, the box doesn't work if my computer's logged off. So in case of such eventuality. . .

Click on the highlighted link over there in the text of the post at your left and it will take you to the magical box. There you will see a list of all the songs. You may click on each individually and listen. When you click on a song it will take you to the song file where you can click the "play" button -- or else you can make them play all in a row. To start continuous play, click on the first song; before you click the "play" button, check the box to the right of the play button for continuous play. Enjoy.

MISSION STATEMENT

Here at BATHED IN THE LIGHT FROM ANDROMEDA, we will use our interocitors to reverse the polarity of the neutron flow. This will enable us to capture a beam from the galaxy of Andromeda and call down sounds from the past in a horror/science fiction/fantasy vein. Or any other kind of sounds which catch the fancy of our programmer Dr. Janos Rukh. These audio rarities will appear here for approximately one week so that you may tickle your auditory receptors. Then they will be replaced by one or two different examples of audio insanity. This all will likely occur every Saturday (unless the Moon is in Pluto) so please check back regularly. You never know what you may hear: songs to which you make shake your tootsies or sounds which will call forth the Great Old Ones. Perhaps both. Happy listening. . .
