interview with Phil Vellender
Hi everyone. I hope you all enjoy this conversation with Phil Vellender, one of the five minds behind the London fanzine Trailing Clouds of Glory. I shared their fantastic 1974 multipart Firesign Theatre piece last week (linked here in case you missed it). A transcript of our conversation follows below.One other piece of Firesign news this week: a four-hour compilation of Nick Danger pieces is now available on Bandcamp, courtesy of the heroic Taylor Jessen. This is every Nick Danger piece not released on Columbia (those are all on the streaming services). The 1984 album The Three Faces...

Firesign sources #8 / FDR Pearl Harbor address
The final entry in this series on the Firesign Theatre’s radio sources has to be FDR’s December 1941 Pearl Harbor address — Firesign’s inspiration for the famous travesty that interrupts “The Further Adventures of Nick Danger” (at 25:20) and concludes the hour-long How Can You Be in Two Places at Once When You’re Not Anywhere at All:We have reached our rendezvous with destiny! It is our unanimous and irrevocable decision that the United States of America unconditionally surrender!In Firesign: The Electromagnetic History of Everything, I talk about the “unconditional surrender” broadcast in relation to the Gul...

Firesign sources #7 / The Maltese Falcon
Last week I said I thought that The Adventures of Philip Marlowe was probably the primary model for Firesign’s Nick Danger. I still think that’s right, but you wouldn’t get far into side two of How Can You Be without recognizing another important source: The Maltese Falcon. Phil Proctor’s Rocky Rococo is clearly modeled on Peter Lorre’s performance as Joel Cairo in the famous 1941 Warner Bros. film, and if the vocal impression is not enough, the script gives further cues (which must be dry by now): “you may have seen me around the drugstore drinking cho...

Firesign sources #6 / The Adventures of Philip Marlowe (2 of 2) "The Pelican's Roost"
Yesterday I posted the first of the Gerald Mohr episodes of The Adventures of Philip Marlowe. That’s the one that begins with the detective “getting tired of reading Philip Marlowe, Private Investigator backwards on the ground glass of my office door.” Firesign’s Nick Danger would take that line to its logical conclusion. Today I’m posting one more Philip Marlowe episode, one that contains many more of the hallmarks that can be heard on the “Nick Danger” side of How Can You Be in Two Places at Once When You’re Not Anywhere at All. The most obvious...

Firesign sources #5 / The Adventures of Philip Marlowe (1 of 2) "The Red Wind"
Today we’re finally flipping over to the second side of How Can You Be in Two Places at Once When You’re Not Anywhere at All. Though the first side of How Can You Be is as far out as anything Firesign ever did, the flip side was much more conventional, a parody of old radio detectives called “The Further Adventures of Nick Danger (Third Eye).” Foregoing (for the time being) the A-side’s multitrack studio wizardry, Firesign chose to track “Nick Danger” entirely live, relearning the techniques of the programs shows that had broadcast from Columbia Square before it was...

Firesign sources #4 / Buffalo War of the Worlds (1968)
We’re about halfway through this series of radio sources for the Firesign Theatre’s 1969 album How Can You Be in Two Places at Once When You’re Not Anywhere at All. Today’s entry would not have directly informed How Can You Be in Two Places at Once — Firesign had just finished recording the “War of the Worlds” side of the album by the time of the broadcast — but I can’t resist including it in this series, for reasons both obvious and less obvious. In 1968, Buffalo’s WKBW was the city’s predominant pop music station, a 50,000 watt A...

Firesign sources #3 / The War of the Worlds (1938)
The Mercury Theatre on the Air’s 1938 “War of the Worlds” broadcast — directed by and starring the inevitable Orson Welles — is the most legendary radio drama event of them all, so it should not be surprising to find it a point of reference for the Firesign Theatre. David Ossman (who named one of his sons Orson!) has often compared Firesign’s first on-air improvisation to the “War of the Worlds” broadcast, KPFK experiencing a small-scale version of the panic of 1938 when outraged listeners phoned in to protest the suppression of the (imaginary) films that Firesign was “screening” and then censoring in real tim...

(Like this post if you’d like to see CBS recommit to pro-democracy practices!)Firesign knew that they were recording in the studio Corwin had used for “On a Note of Triumph” and many other pro-democracy propaganda broadcasts, and they (especially David...

LITM Extra - No UNESCO: Detroit Techno [excerpt]
This is an excerpt from a patrons-only episode. To hear the whole thing and much more besides, visit Patreon.com/LoveMessagePod Earlier this month UNESCO added Berlin techno to its List of Intangible Cultural Heritage, a register to recoginize and safeguard important traditions, practices and expressions. This news was met with consternation from music fans over how this honour completely overlooked the birthplace of techno, Detroit. For this patrons-only episode, Jeremy and Tim react to the news by pulling out a dozen or so of their favourite Detroit techno cuts to discuss.
