Turntabling Booth at HorrorHound Weekend 2011 Indianapolis

March 25-27, Turntabling will be running the usual booth at HorrorHound Weekend at the Mariott Indianapolis East, located at 7202 East 21st Street, Indianapolis IN 46219. The table will be CRAMMED full of vinyl obscurities and CD imports from Goblin, Morricone, and many many more. Get the last of the Dawn of the Dead vinyl while you can, plus amazingly obscure/hard-to-find/just plain cool records by Francisco Lai, Misfits, Air, Daft Punk, Isaac Hayes and too many others to name.

Turntabling has been doing shows for a couple of years now and we’re always glad to see new faces at Horrorhound as well as old friends. This year is going to be a most excellent event and we look forward to seeing you there. Stop by and say hello.

P.S. The online orders are on hold until after HorrorHound AND the Cinema Wasteland show, which happen back-to-back this year. Can’t safely offer stuff online when it’s getting sold out at the show…we will let you know when online ordering is back again. Needless to say, this does NOT count for digital downloads offered as part of the Turntabling digital singles experiment we’re running now….

Back From HorrorHound

HorrorHound Weekend was an amazing time…many thanks to all the great people who dropped by the Turntabling booth there to talk about music, bad album covers and movies in general. Lots of new friends were made, lots of craziness happened, but far and away my favorite moment of the show was chatting with Malcom McDowell, who signed the VERY NOT FOR SALE copy of the Get Crazy soundtrack you see pictured above.

I quizzed McDowell on the film, in which he plays a has-been codpiece wearing rocker named Reggie Wanker. The story goes, McDowell was offered the part in this Alan Arkush comedy, which he turned down by asking an outrageous fee. McDowell told me he thought the script was awful and figured asking for an outrageous fee would be the end of it.

But it wasn’t–the professional singer hired to take his place didn’t work out, McDowell got his fee, and a bit of 80s b-movie history was made including McDowell appearing on the Get Crazy soundtrack as a singer.

When he agreed to do the part, Malcom McDowell was totally unaware of the place in the Get Crazy script where, when his character is dosed with LSD, he begins having a conversation with his own penis–who takes over Reggie Wanker’s career and becomes his manager. “Hello, cock…I didn’t know YOU could talk!”

The look on his face as he related the discovery of this scene in the script? Effing priceless.

McDowell’s signature on the Get Crazy album definitely made my weekend–I’m not normally an autograph hound, but Get Crazy is such a great 80s artifact, it had to be done. And no, sorry all–it’s not for sale. That one’s a keepsake from a VERY good show which also included appearances by Julian Sands, Caroline Williams and Linda Blair.
