Bill Marx Interview

[Teasing the Korean]

Great interview with composer/jazz pianist Bill Marx, son of Harpo Marx.

He talks about Harpo, jazz, and scoring AIP films such as Count Yorga, Vampire and Scream Blacula Scream.  His music is played along the way.

TTK BACK IN DA HOUSE!

Fascinating interview with a guy who was sideman on a bunch of records, who I always wondered about. Good to hear he hated Schoenberg's music when he was at Julliard.

That chamber piece he wrote for Count Yorga sounded like a great piece of music. I was completely unaware that he scored the Yorga movies and the film that featured hippies treating a vampire as their guru, "Deathmaster", in addition to the Blacula sequel.

I'm going to look for his autobiography to find out more. Thanks!

It was self-imposed.  I had some job stress and serious time constraints, so I kicked myself off of the InterWebz for a few months to focus.  But now I'm back and better than ever!  If you liked the old TTK, just wait until you see what TTK 2.0 has in store for you!
