We're Off to Find... The Wozard of Iz
An 2010 exhibition at the Library of Congress called The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, "America's greatest and best-loved home-grown fairytale."
Today on The FPT, reflections on L. Frank Baum's 1900 novel and The Wizard of Oz, the 1939 MGM film-musical adaptation directed by Victor Fleming: especially their many influences in music and throughout popular culture.
This includes examples highlighting Mort Garson's countercultural spoof The Wozard of Iz: An Electronic Odyssey (from 1968), John Boorman's cult science-fantasy film Zardoz (from 1974), and the all-Black adaptation The Wiz: The Super Soul Musical — plus the impact of starlet Judy Garland as a gay icon.
Hear remixes and mashups, prog, indie / alternative and other rock'n'roll originals, jazz / soul and world-music covers, hip hop allusions, electronica / techno, unused film outtakes, soundtrack cuts, dialogue snippets, commentary, you name it.
"We're Off to Find the Wozard!" Showtime is Monday, January 25th from 11am-12noon PST with an on-demand archival recording available here for two weeks thereafter.
