 Hello again. Prof Mikey in the Old School. This is the place for the intro, and this show is no different. Most podcasters will use this time to show you how casual they are, introduce all their sidekicks, and reflect on a news story they saw on Entertainment Tonight. I’m fine with all that but this show is very different.As regular listeners have figured out, I wandered in from the world of old radio. As a DJ I was told to keep it short, give an honest relate, introduce a song and shut up.There are far fewer rules in podcasting than when you are on the radio. Radio is all about a target audience, podcasts are hoping someone on a desert island gets your mp3 in a bottle, then has something charged up so they can play it. Suppose all that happens with some shipwrecked soul in the middle of the Pacific. The listener sits out there like Tom Hanks playing with his Wilson, and somehow they didn’t get the part about giving you a like.

Old School is an educational experience, and as such we can slip some good stuff in.Last week was big fun, diving into the just below the surface semi underground of 1955. Way too old for modern audiences, but for those collecting, or trying to figure out whether to buy vinyl or food, or people remembering their Boomer childhood that never ended.Anyway that show had a ton of stories and took hours to research. Here I am this week, it’s time to put together another chapter of Old School. But instead of a concentrated theme, this is more of an evolutionary show that will take shape as we go along. Think of it as the freeform radio of the early past when the DJ had to do a Sunday afternoon shift, and just start pulling records. It not as haphazard as that, there is a theme, and that theme is to get right down to the real Nitty Gritty. We lead off with Shirley Ellis and a bit of a dance number from 1963, then try to follow it with music from all over the stacks. The only thing these songs have in common is that, at least to Professor Mikeys way of thinking, they get right down to the real nitty gritty. Or at least attempt to do so. Strip away the fluff, and contrived hooks, the sappy lyrics, but keep honesty and a good beat going. No charts, no ranking, mostly music that in its time could very well have been brought up on charges of telling the truth.It is time for the chatting to start and the money to hit the jukebox. This is Old School episode number 80. The real Nitty Gritty.Nitty Gritty - Shirley Ellis (1963)The Jezebel Spirit - David Byrne & Brian Eno (1981)Houses in Motion - Talking House (1980)So houses represent a where, how, and what you live when establishing your own personal nitty gritty reality. A house, like your psyche, has a façade as well as an interior. The outside shows the world how you live, the inside is your own personal privacy., one corresponding to the public self and the other to the private self. Forever Carl Jung, declared homemaking as the power metaphor for the integration of the personalites, “the way we attempt to bring our outer lives into harmony with our innermost desires.”Talking Heads would fill Jung’s notebook, Rosey Clooney might have nailed down all metaphors, and Jimi was known for setting psychic guitars ablaze. Johnny Cash originated the line David Byrne was walking.I Walk the Line - Johnny Cash & Snoop Dogg (2008)This Old House - Rosemary Clooney (1954)House Burning Down - The Jimi Hendrix ExperienceThe Friends of Mr. Cairo - Jon Anderson & VangelisAround the Dial- The KinksReality - The Five AmericansNobody But Me - The Human BeinzWhatcha See is Whatcha Get - The DramaticsPure and Easy- Pete TownshendThe ...
