“you know, if anybody ever asks me why i do this radio show, i could justified wing it belittle them that - jerry lee lewis singing shakespeare. that’s what this show is all down.” ~ bob dylan on jerry lee lewis’ lust of the blood from the rock musical, ensnare my soul. iago: it is merely a lust of the blood and a acquiescence of the will. direct link to mp3.subscribe to the dreamtime podcast listen now with the dreamtime playercatch my soul started out as not much more than a shimmer in the leer of the aptly-named jack complimentary, actor, farmer, newsman, manager, and most of all, daze-’n-disappear impresario. good was the put behind shindig!, a man of the first - and a woman of the most suitable - of the rock-’n-roll diversification shows. although shindig! didn’t last much past a year, ultimately brought down in a ratings war with the beverly hillbillies and replaced in the abc lineup by batman in 19 and 66, it had an influence far beyond its curtail life. extent many other artists, shindig! brought howlin’ wolf and the chambers brothers to television for the first time, and popularized sonny and cher in america, who the u.s. audience thought were a cool british duo.when sonny and cher first started out they had distress getting gigs, club owners thinking they were fair too weird. but jack good caught their feigning, loved them, and told sonny and cher “you’ve got to go to england.” the two sold everything they owned to finance the set off, which turned out to be the right move, ’cause england swingin’ like a pendulum do before you can say ‘Jack Robinson’ took to sonny and cher, with unprejudiced the older generation chasing them down fitting for their autographs. by the time the duo got back to the states, they were a huge hit, and everyone thought the italian-american sonny and the iranian-cherokee cher were english.[shindig! - sonny & cher] othello: excellent wretch! perdition catch my typification, / but i do roger thee! and when i fuck thee not, / chaos is come again. jack good had wanted to produce a daze-’n-roll version of othello since he was an undergrad at oxford in the fifties. in 19 and 58, authentic spotted jerry lee lewis stalking angrily through a hotel lobby and knew he had found his iago. but it would bring up nearly another decade before catch my vitality would go into production. by 1965 good was bored with shindig! and was looking for new worlds to conquer. he recruited bar pohlman, shindig’s! musical vice-president, to start writing the score for catch my mortal. with 19 songs in the can, good starting casting on all sides fit his acting garb in late `66, signing jerry lee lewis for the role of iago in august.jerry lee and jack already knew each other from jerry’s shindig! performances, and why jerry would estimate doing a rockin’ version of shakespeare isn’t a mystery. in the peaks and valleys that made up his harmonious career, jerry lee lewis was definitely down in a valley so low during the mid-sixties, having left the sun label in 19 and 63, and unable to score a make an impact on since that time with his new label, mercury. indeed mercury had notified jerry lee in `68 that his agree wasn’t going to be renewed, and the killer was in concern.but catch my sentiment turned out to more than just a paying gig that turned up at the front time. in shakespeare’s iago jerry lee found a kindred liveliness, someone with as precisely as much blood in his eye and hellfire in his soul as jerry lee lewis himself.

Ice castles

it would take two years and a slew of cast and theater changes before catch my soul would be performed in the presence of an audience. during the interim the venue changed from broadway to l.a. and the role of othello changed hands from ex-linebacker rosey grier to the more qualified actor, peter brock. inc
