The Universe

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/11/04

This week on Three Tune Tuesday we go a little cosmic with “The Universe,” tracing a quiet arc from wonder to reach to trust. We open with “Underneath the Stars” (1915), a secular nocturne that lingers on night air and distant light—humankind gazing up and asking big questions. Then we lift off with “Come, Josephine, in My Flying Machine” (1910/11), the giddy early-aviation fantasy where romance and technology climb skyward together. We land with “Whispering Hope,” the enduring parlor hymn that

Songs of Protest - Let Freedom Ring

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/10/14

In this week’s Three Tune Tuesday, we explore the thin line between patriotism and protest — those moments when loyalty to one’s country means daring to question it. Long before protest songs filled coffeehouses and picket lines, defiance lived in the guise of anthems and ballads. From The Battle Cry of Freedom’s rally for liberty, to The Minstrel Boy’s quiet defiance through art, to My Country ’Tis of Thee, a hymn reclaimed again and again by voices demanding America live up to its promise, these

Moonlight

2025/10/07

This week, Blind Skeleton lifts a glass to the full moon—and to love that’s weathered a few of them. On this Supermoon evening, we trace how the moonlight wove itself into the music of the early 1900s: from the dreamy hush of Neil Moret’s “Moonlight Serenade” to the warm harmonies of “By the Light of the Silvery Moon”, and finally to the joyous barn-dance energy of Arthur Pryor’s “Shine On, Harvest Moon”.

Renaissance

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/09/23

This week’s Three Tune Tuesday takes its cue from a day that began at the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire, detoured through a kilted stroll, and ended with an Oktoberfest stein. Our theme follows that same arc: we open with a Renaissance court dance, the Gagliarda, brought to life by Toscanini and La Scala; we leap to Scotland with Jules Levy’s sparkling cornet solo on The Blue Bells of Scotland, a nod to the tartan I wore; and we close with Geraldine Farrar’s 1912 recording of Wonnevoller Mai, o

Justice in the Court of Song

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/09/16

This week on Three Tune Tuesday, we step into the witness box for “Justice in the Court of Song.” From Vernon Dalhart’s mournful The Prisoner’s Song to Billy Murray’s cheeky Prohibition jab How Are You Goin’ to Wet Your Whistle?, and Fred Hillebrand’s sly social satire Ain’t We Got Fun, these records remind us that music has always doubled as testimony, protest, and cross-examination. Join Boneapart and Yulia as they explore how early 1920s hits laughed at the law, mourned its judgments, and poked

Boneaparts Favourites

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/09/09

This week on Three Tune Tuesday, Boneapart shares three of his all-time favorite records: the exotic fox trot “Egyptland” by the Six Brown Brothers, the barnyard mayhem of “Livery Stable Blues” by the Original Dixieland Jass Band, and the thunderous “Anvil Chorus” from Verdi’s Il Trovatore, performed by the New York Light Opera Company. Somehow, Suzanne and Boneapart spin a full hour of stories, history, and banter out of just these three tracks—proof that even the smallest playlist can open the

Labour Day

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/09/02

To mark Labour Day, we trace a line from quiet graft to collective thunder: Stanley Kirkby’s “The Farmer’s Boy” (1912, Beka-Grand-Record) opens with rural work ethic and upward hope; Alan Turner’s “The Village Blacksmith” (Victor) hammers out craft pride and debtless independence; and Chaliapin’s “Dubinushka” (HMV DA 621, 1924) lifts a hauling chant into a rallying cry. In our unscripted meander we dip into the holiday’s origins, swap label lore (Beka’s Berlin–London pipeline, Victor quirks, HMV’s

International Relations

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/08/26

This week on Three Tune Tuesday, we’re taking a trip across borders with an “International Relations” theme — but not the kind fought with guns and flags. Instead, we follow how early 20th-century popular music imagined, borrowed, and sometimes outright distorted the sounds of “foreign” places. From the faux-exotic fox-trot of Hindustan (1918), to the heartfelt Latin American cry of Ay, Ay, Ay (1920), to the global journey of La Paloma (1902) — one of the first true international pop songs — we

Music we Learned from Cartoons

This week’s Three Tune Tuesday isn’t about concert halls or high culture. It’s about the tunes we first met through Bugs Bunny in drag, Elmer Fudd in a horned helmet, and Daffy Duck pounding a piano. Music we learned from cartoons.

Non Sousa Marches

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/08/12

This week on Three Tune Tuesday, we’re marching to a different beat — and it’s definitely not Sousa’s. We’ve lined up three bold, cheeky, and slightly irreverent marches that trade rigid patriotism for a wink and a grin. From the circus-crazed chaos of Entry of the Gladiators, to the clapping, stomping revelry of Radetzky March, and finally the sly, end-of-the-parade strut of The Gladiator’s Farewell, these tunes prove that a march doesn’t have to salute the regime — sometimes it can just laugh in

Sousa Marches

2025/08/05

This week on Three Tune Tuesday, we dive into the world of Sousa marches — not just as music, but as cultural artifacts. From the bold nationalism of The Stars and Stripes Forever to the disciplined dignity of Semper Fidelis, and finally to the unexpectedly comedic afterlife of The Liberty Bell, we explore what marches were meant to do, who they were meant to move, and how their meanings have shifted over time. It's a journey through patriotism, power, and the strange ways symbols evolve — all in

Disobedient Women

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/07/29

This week on Three Tune Tuesday, we tip our hats (and rattle some cages) with a theme that’s long overdue: Disobedient Women. From flappers and vaudeville queens to blues legends who lived out loud, we spin three songs that chart a quiet revolution—women stepping out, speaking up, and refusing to be small. You’ll hear about Rebecca, who came back from Mecca with a scandalous new spirit; Eva Tanguay, who just flat-out didn’t care; and Ma Rainey, who shattered every mold with a song too bold for her

Outsiders

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/07/22

This week on Three Tune Tuesday, we turn our ear to the outsiders — the wanderers, the exiled, and the forgotten. From a lonesome American drifter to a Siberian prisoner and a mother mourning her lost son, these early recordings echo with the voices of those who don’t quite belong. Whether cast out, worn down, or simply left behind, each song carries the weight of life on the margins. Join us for three vintage tracks that ask: who gets to belong, and who gets left out in the cold?

Rebellious Laughter

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/07/15

This week on Three Tune Tuesday, we celebrate Rebellious Laughter — the kind that exposes ego, hypocrisy, and the absurdity of social masks. Our three tunes come from the early 1900s, but their targets feel timeless. First up, “I Love Me (I’m Wild About Myself)” is a vanity-fueled romp that skewers self-obsession with a wink and a waltz. Then, Bert Williams delivers “Nobody”, a quietly brilliant satire about being forgotten, ignored, and expected to keep smiling — a song as relevant now as it was in

Workers Songs

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/07/07

This week on Three Tune Tuesday, we’re rolling up our sleeves and diving into songs of sweat, steel, and solidarity. From the pounding drills of Irish railroad workers, to the rousing toasts of weary students, to the thunderous celebration at the forge, these tunes remind us that hard work is a universal rhythm. Whether it’s toil for wages or the shared struggles of daily life, today’s set spans borders and centuries—but every song rings with the sounds of labor and perseverance.

Freedom, eh?

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/07/01

This week on Three Tune Tuesday, we celebrate freedom with three pre-1925 gems. “The Canadian Guns” brings a blast of patriotic pride, echoing Canada’s military legacy. “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” captures everyday liberty through baseball’s simple joy. And “Canadian Capers,” a jaunty foxtrot, dances us into the upbeat spirit of postwar freedom. From marching bands to jazz bands, it's a brisk stroll through North American liberty in sound.

June 24 Songs that were Co opted

Blind Skeleton"s Three Tune Tuesday ·

2025/06/24

In this episode of Three Tune Tuesday, we dive into songs that didn’t mean the way we mean them today. Each tune started with a clear intent—mockery, freedom, defiance—and then history took the wheel. “Yankee Doodle” was a British joke that became an American anthem. “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot” was a coded cry for liberation, now sung in sports arenas. And “The Battle Cry of Freedom” was a Union rallying song, rewritten by Confederates with the same melody. Through these three tracks, we explore how
