More Japanese Television

May 12, 2009 by Jack Steiner Leave a Comment

I haven’t yet had the opportunity to visit Japan but it is on my list of places that I have to see. If you are one of the seventeen long time readers you know that I have run a number of posts on this topic.

I had intended on including links to those posts, but apparently the videos have been removed. When I have time I’ll do a quick search to see if I can find replacements.

In the interim here is a clip that left me, well, I don’t know. Take a look for yourself.

Stand By Me- The World Sings

May 6, 2009 by Jack Steiner Leave a Comment

Gizmodo has the story about this song:

This cover of Stand By Me was recorded by completely unknown artists in a street virtual studio all around the world. It all started with a base track—vocals and guitar—recorded on the streets of Santa Monica, California, by a street musician called Roger Ridley. The base track was then taken to New Orleans, Louisiana, where Grandpa Elliott—a blind singer from the French Quarter—added vocals and harmonica while listening to Ridley’s base track on headphones. In the same city, Washboard Chaz’s added some metal percussion to it.

And from there, it just gets rock ‘n’ rolling bananas: The producers took the resulting mix all through Europe, Africa, and South America, adding new tracks with multiple instruments and vocals that were assembled in the final version you are seeing in this video. All done with a simple laptop and some microphones.

A Japanese version of Fiddler on the Roof. That link has been used here more than once, but it is worth posting again.

It’s A Cookbook!

March 26, 2009 by Jack Steiner Leave a Comment

Back in my school days we’d occasionally disrupt class by answering questions with the exclamation, “It is a cookbook!” Oh the things that we used to do for laughs, some were funnier than others.
