The Whole Shebang Minute 91: Alien Glamstones and Ominous Organs

In Minute 91 of The Whole Shebang, Jenny and Mike are joined by Mike's OTHER podcast partner, Rob MacDougall, of Hold My Order, Terrible Dresser, the Deep-Dive, History Nerd WKRP In Cincinnati Podcast! Jenny, Mike, and Rob kick off this week with: the feeling of being starstruck by glamorous podcasters, what exactly did Jack Fairy do for Curt Wild's career, the genius of the slam cut and ominous organ intro to the Death of Glitter concert, a brief detour back into horror-glam with Jack's opening looking a bit like an Alice Cooper stage show, the use of the word "glitter" to describe glam and its possible American roots in Gary Glitter and the Second Wave of Glam, the funeral for glitter given at Rodney Bingenheimer's English Disco on the Sunset Strip in autumn 1974, the feeling of having missed a musical scene and Mike's own personal The Day the Music Died when Green Day played the concert immortalized in the Weezer song "El Scorcho," the constant nagging Generation X feelings of inferiority to Boomers and their cultural experiences, and fittingly we wrap up with a look at the T. Rex song "20th Century Boy" and the vérité quality to the concert scenes in Velvet Goldmine.
