    Ancient Rising 5.2, The Making of Streets of Staccato and ...

Preston of the Yukon: A Call from the Storm conclusionRadio drama will be heard on The Joe Bev Experience this week, podcast at http://www.waterlogg.com and airing on public radio stations including Wisconsin Public Radio and Pawling Public Radio. Joe Bev, who's full name is Joe Bevilacqua, produced, directed, provided all the voices and sound effects for his audio dramatization of J.C. Del La Torre's epic SCI-FI adventure novel Ancient Rising. Bevilacqua also plays all the characters in the conclusion of Sgt. Preston  of the Yukon: "A Call from the Storm" written by Jim Nixon. Plus, Streets of Staccato creators Victor Gates, W. Ralph Walters and Elie Hirschman go behind the scenes of their radio cop comedy.The weekly radio hour is an anthology series representing the depth and breath of Bev's 40-plus year career in audio storytelling, from documentary to radio drama.Challenge of the Yukon was a radio series that began on Detroit's station WXYZ (as had The Lone Ranger and The Green Hornet), and an example of a Northern genre story. The series was first heard on February 3, 1938. The title changed from Challenge of the Yukon to Sergeant Preston of the Yukon in November 1951, and remained under that name through the end of the series and into television. The program was an adventure series about Sergeant William Preston of the North-West Mounted Police and his lead sled dog, Yukon King, as they fought evildoers in the Northern wilderness during the Gold Rush of the 1890s.What the Critics Say:"The enthusiasm of the writers and their respect for the period is infectious." (Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine)"Joe Bevilacqua is an amazingly talented actor and producer who brings these stories to life! You will think you are listening to actual old time radio!" (Jim Harmon, OTR historian and author)"Are you a fan of old-time radio? Do you wish they were still making those wonderful programs so you wouldn’t have to keep listening to the same old episodes again and again? Do you poop out at parties? Do you wish I would stop asking so many questions? Well wish no more o traveler of the airwaves. From Joe Bevilacqua and his Waterlogg Productions, the vita-veeta-vegemin of old-time radio, comes this echo from a bygone era. It’s The New Stories of Old-Time Radio! That’s right, creator, writer, and narrator Joe Bev has taken some of his own favorite radio programs, and created brand new episodes for all of us to enjoy. Contained in this set are all original episodes of Our Miss Brooks, Tom Mix, Candy Matson Yukon 2-8209, The Clyde Beatty Show, The Green Llama, and Sgt. Preston of the Yukon. Assisting Joe Bevilacqua on the narrating duties, is his wife and creative partner Lorie Kellogg. With these two working together, you really don’t need anyone else. They can create more unique voices between the two of them than you can shake a radio at." (Audiobook Heaven)Joe Bevilacqua (Joe Bev) is a veteran radio theater producer and voice actor. A protege of Daws Butler, he also works on stage and is the winner of the 2012 New York TANYS Award for Excellence in Acting.

    Louis Armstrong's New Orleans,with Wynton Marsalis: A Joe Bev Musical Sound Portrait

    Louis Armstrong's New Orleans,with Wynton Marsalis: A Joe Bev Musical ...

    Louis Armstrong's New Orleans,with Wynton Marsalis: A Joe Bev Musical Sound Portrait is produced and narrated by Joe Bevilacqua, with Wynton Marsalis, Donald Newlove, Leonard Lopate, Edward R. Murrow,and Louis Armstrong.Veteran radio producer Joe Bevilacqua hosts this entertaining,informative hour, recorded in the French Quarter of New Orleans and featuring jazz great Wynton Marsalis, jazz author and historian Donald Newlove, WNYC Radio talk show host Leonard Lopate, members of the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, and others, on the origins of jazz, and the life and music of legendary trumpeter Louis Armstrong.Also featured is the music of Armstrong throughout his long career, and rare recordings, including audio from a 1957 CBS TV documentary with Edward R. Murrow.What the Critics Say"Informational, polished, sound-rich, Joe Bevilacqua strikes again with this superb documentary on the life and music of Louis Armstrong. The rich tapestry of music, interviews, and sound from the streets of New Orleans is expertly produced. In addition to some rare recordings, the program includes interviews with Wynton Marsalis and others that really add to what is primarily a music program, rather than detract from the focus of the program. The sound quality is excellent, and the vintage recordings have been cleaned up well. The program is both entertaining and informative, and held my interest for the entire hour. I highly recommend it."

    David Ossman, Fred Frees, Willoughby and the Professor and Great ...

    David Ossman, Fred Frees, Willoughby and the Professor and Great Northern Audio take listeners on a one hour radio theater ride as Joe Bev Travels (Further) Through Time & SpaceAbout this week's show, it was posted on Facebook by Brian K. Price of Great Northern Audio (http://www.greatnorthernaudio.com/): "Joe Bev will be playing Great Northern's "Peter Galaxy: Interstellar Envoy". One of the cool things about this spoof on old time radio adventure serials is that we were able to pair David Ossman of the Firesign Theatre with Michael Sheard, probably best known for playing the "you have failed me for the last time" Admiral Ozzel in Star Wars as well as working in a ton of Doctor Whos. Originally trained in Shakespeare, Michael said he hadn't performed on stage in 20 years and had a wonderful time. You can hear it in his voice. Also, starring Tick Wick, Windy Bowlsby, Irene Ruderman Clark, and Preston Ossman.""Can two retired, old-time radio actors find work for 300 billion illegal aliens? Michael Sheard (Star Wars, Dr. Who) and David Ossman (Firesign Theatre) join forces to show just how much fun answering that question can be."In addition, "Napoleon Brandy," part 2, will be read by Fred Frees, one of the six stories from his audiobook "Dracula Meets Jack The Ripper" (written by Michael B. Druxman), available at Amazon (LINK:http://www.amazon.com/Dracula-Meets-Ripper-Revisionist-Histories/dp/B00B3QMAK8/ref=sr_1_8?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1430334775&sr=1-8).Also, on the hour will be part 1 of The Whithering of Willoughby and the Professor, Episode 14: ''I Do Not Like the Blackness of Her Nose'' or ''The Penguins Laugh at You!” written by Joe Bevilacqua and Robert J. Cirasa, produced, directed and voiced by Bevilacqua.Brian K. Price also wrote: "Joseph Bevilacqua's website (http://www.joebev.com/) is entertaining, informative and goofy–a wonderful mix and just the kind of place to hear SOLID STATE UNIVERSITY – hope you have time to visit. And listen in for other Great Northern Audio works in the coming months."Blackstone Audio and Waterlogg Productions will be releasing The Great Northern Audio Theatre Collection on MP3 and CD, later this year! In honor of this Joe Bev presents an hour mix of his own Camp Waterlogg Chronicles and episodes from Great Northern's Permafrost MN, on this week's The Joe Bev Audio Theater: "Camp Waterlogg Meets Permafrost" (LINK: http://tunein.com/radio/Joe-Bev-Audio-Theater-p566546/).David Ossman has also appeared as George Tirebiter on Joe Bev's The Comedy-O-Rama Hour (LINK: http://tunein.com/radio/COMEDY-O-RAMA-p566543/) and a guest on Joe Bev's The Voice Actor Show (LINK: http://tunein.com/radio/The-Voice-Actor-Show-p598224/). Ossman has spent over 40 years performing, writing, and directing for the audio medium.  Best known as a founding member of the “legendary” Firesign Theatre comedy radio and recording quartet, Ossman has also written and produced major broadcast series and important individual programs for American Public Radio, National Public Radio, the BBC, XM Satellite Radio, WETA (Washington DC), WGBH Radio (Boston) and Pacifica Radio; plus countless individual programs, comedy and advertising spots, guest appearances, performances and interviews heard on every medium from 45rpm singles to DVDs and from AM and FM to webcasts and blogs.With his wife, Judith Walcutt, Ossman has co-produced a distinguished series of audio plays, including THE WONDERFUL WIZARD OF OZ, an all-star centennial audio production for the Children’s Museum of Los Angeles and winner of the Parents Choice Award.  Ossman’s and Walcutt’s up-dated THE WAR OF THE WORLDS 50TH ANNIVERSARY PRODUCTION starring Jason Robards, Steve Allen, Douglas Edwards, Scott Simon and Terry Gross was nominated for a Grammy in 1988. http://otherworldmedia.com/   Carnival Podcasthttps://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/cartoon-carnival-with-joe-bev/id624696898 Joe Bev Experience Podcasthttps://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-joe-bev-experience/id627773341 and check out Rick Oveton's podcast too!

    Deconstructing Laurel & Hardy: A Comedy-O-Rama Special

    This comedy hour combines audio from classic Laurel and Hardy ...

    This comedy hour combines audio from classic Laurel and Hardy movie clips with a new radio theater production in which "the boys" open a fix-it shop and recall their past failures as they handle a barrage of wacky customers.In the new moments, full of funny sound effects and music, Joe Bev voices not only Stan and Ollie but James Finlayson, Billy Bletcher, Edgar Kennedy, and other characters, including a dog. All of the female roles, including Mae Busch, are voiced by Lorie Kellogg.Along the way listeners are treated to hilarious moments from Hal Roach's classic Laurel and Hardy sound films. Among the highlights of the special is when Bev intercuts a scene from the English film Blotto with the Spanish version, La vida nocturna, one of the films in which Laurel and Hardy spoke phonetically.The duo was one of the most popular and critically acclaimed comedy double acts of the early Classical Hollywood era of American cinema. Composed of thin Englishman Stan Laurel and large American Oliver Hardy, they became well known during the late 1920s for their slapstick comedy, with Laurel playing the clumsy and childlike friend of the pompous Hardy. They made over one hundred films together, initially two-reelers (short films) before expanding into feature-length works in the 1930s. Their films include Sons of the Desert, the Academy Award - winning short film The Music Box, Babes in Toyland, and Way out West. Hardy's catchphrase, "Well, here's another nice mess you've gotten me into!" is still widely recognized. (Since Ollie never said, "... here's another FINE mess" Joe Bev does it for him!)"Deconstructing Laurel & Hardy" is available for purchase as an MP3 download and on CD as part of A Comedy-O-Rama Variety Pack volume one, from Blackstone Audio and Waterlogg Productions.http://www.downpour.com/deconstructing-laurel-hardy-1 Deconstructing Laurel & Hardy:  A Comedy-O-Rama Hour Special By: Joe Bevilacqua Featuring Joe Bevilacqua and Lorie Kellogg Series: The Best of the Comedy-O-Rama Hour Runtime: 1.0 Hours Recording: Audio Theater Release date: 12.1.2013 Publisher: Blackstone Audio ISBN-13: 978-1-4829-4529-4 http://www.downpour.com/comedy-o-rama-variety-pack-1 Comedy-O-Rama Variety Pack By Joe Bevilacqua, Lorie Kellogg, and Victor Gates Performed by: a full cast Runtime: 5.3 Hours Recording: Audio Theater Release date: 12.1.2013 Publisher: Blackstone Audio ISBN-13: 978-1-4829-4517-1 This variety pack includes comedy sketches and audio dramatizations that will keep you entertained throughout.Includes:Deconstructing Laurel & HardyAbbott & Costello in the CatskillsThe Joe Bev Valentine TreatCupid Comes to Camp WaterloggStreets of Staccato: “Stench of the City”Streets of Staccato: “Vice Grip” --- Incredibly, Joe Bev currently acts on stage, TV and in movies, reports for NPR (All Things Considered, Weekend Edition, Latino USA), and still finds time to produce 36 unique hours of radio every month, 12 of which are underwritten by book publisher BearManor Media.

    Host Joe Bevilacqua (Joe Bev) presents an hour of "True Taxi Stories". The program begins with an audio excerpt from Bevilacqua's own personal story: Cancer Cabby Chronicles. A diagnosis of cancer is never welcomed by anyone. But for veteran radio producer Joe Bevilacqua  (Joe Bev), his diagnosis had a silver lining. He struck up an unexpected friendship with the cab driver who took him to his radiation treatments, a Chilean immigrant named Patrick Nilo (owner of CJ Cabs, Ellenville, New York) who came to the US in 1973. We go for a ride with them. This intimate audio vérité conveys a candid realism that will make listeners will feel as if they are in the cab with Joe and Patrick as they share very personal stories of their lives. It was recorded in November and December 2014 by Joe during two months of one hour cab rides from his home in Napanoch to Dyson Center for Cancer Care in Poughkeepsie, New York and back again. "As I told Patrick during one of our cab rides, I feel like getting cancer was my lucky charm. I met so many new people and had so many new experiences that have made me a better person. Patrick has called me "a winner" and has encouraged me to get my positive story out to the world," reveals Joe Bev. Joe Bev completed his prostate cancer treatments on December 1, 2014, with a clean bill of health after 48 radiation treatments. A 5 minute and 20 second collage of his cab ride recordings was broadcast on National Public Radio's Latino USA on March 13, 2015: http://latinousa.org/2015/03/13/what-your-cabbie-can-teach-you/. The complete 4 1/2 hour Cancer Cabbie Chronicles is available on MP3 an CD from Blackstone Audio. --- Also on the hour, Candid Microphone: Getting Change from a Cab Driver, aired on CBS Radio August 31, 1947 Candid Microphone was a 1940s radio show which soon became the long-running TV series "Candid Camera" (38 seasons and 1,000+ episodes). The show involved scenarios in which unwitting members of the public would be placed in a situation where unusual things began happening (caused by actors hired by the producers as well as various props). The victim of the prank's reactions would be recorded and at some stage the joke is finally revealed to them. --- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candid_Camera http://www.modestoradiomuseum.org/candid%20mike.html http://bloximages.newyork1.vip.townnews.com/stltoday.com/content/tncms/assets/v3/editorial/c/26/c2661e5e-83a9-5b57-b38e-c992084efe4f/53e3e4e52fbc7.preview-620.jpg http://www.stltoday.com/gallery/entertainment/television/gail-pennington/things-you-don-t-know-about-candid-camera/collection_daa361fe-2add-55ef-8bf9-1b365bea6e2b.html#0 --- Joe Bev began making up stories into a tape recorder when he was twelve in 1971. 44 years and hundreds of hours of radio broadcasting later, and he’s still creating unusual audio that defies categorization. Whether it is creating a half-hour radio play, documentaries, features or personal essays for National Public Radio, or performing on stage before a live audience, he has made a career out of imaginative storytelling in the best aural traditions of the past.

    This radio hour is an anthology series representing the depth and breath of the 40-plus year career of Joe Bevilacqua (Joe Bev) in audio storytelling, from documentary to radio drama, and new and classic installments of "Joe Bev's" Cartoon Carnival.It's Who's at the Door Day!Joe Bev's childhood creations Willoughby and the Professor celebrate Who's at the Door Day. Bev. wrote the script, produced and directed the audio and performed all the voices in this comic radio play. Also in the hour, the Victor Gates comedy cop show Streets of Staccato: "Stench of the City" part 4, plus Sgt. Preston: "A Call to the Storm" part 1  and "A Lion Without A Roar" by Pedro Pablo Sacristan, both performed by Joe Bev.Willoughby and the Professor is epic science-fiction fantasy comedy, in the Monty Python/Terry Gilliam vein, about a boy and his professor who travel willy-nilly across time and space in a failed attempt to ''cure the world of all its ills''. Produced, directed, and voiced by Joe Bevilacqua, with David Garland and Margaret Juntwait, written by Joe Bevilacqua and Robert J. Cirasa, theme music by David Garland, musical numbers written by Joe Bevilacqua, performed by the Paul Salomone Trio with Paul on piano, Ed Fuqua on bass, and Jim Mason on drums. Bevilacqua first created the characters after his father bought him a Panasonic cassette recorder in 1971 when he was 12 years old.What the Critics Say"Descendents of Laurel and Hardy and Holmes and Watson, among others, Willoughby and the Professor bring radio listeners along on a series of adventures, often in exotic lands and always in the more exotic land of the imagination. Judging from the hundreds of letters WNYC Radio has received about 'Willoughby,' a couple of characters who can go anywhere in the world while remaining inside the listener's radio and head is just the ticket." (David Hinckley, New York Daily News)"There's not a whole lot of comedy on radio these days. We chose to add 'Willoughby and the Professor' to our Contemporary Radio Humor collection because it is unique. One person does all the voices. Bevilacqua was a student of Daws Butler, a master of cartoon voices. It is a very interesting program." (Ken Mueller, Radio Manager, The Museum of Television and Radio)"13,000 Roaches in a Box. For most artists working in radio theatre, the projects tend to be group efforts, with actors, a producer and director, writers, engineers, and sound effects personal. But Joe Bevilacqua is producing a successful radio theatre series almost single-handedly. The great part about radio theatre is you can portray 'any subject in any location in any circumstance, from another part of the world to the past to another dimension. you can create a whole world unto itself'. For example, in one episode, there was a box full of 13,000 roaches and, through a mishap, the box exploded. Even in TV or film, Bevilacqua asks, how could you have 13,000 roaches raining down?" (Amy Hersh, Backstage)"'The Willoughby and the Professor' radio cartoon series... part of the 'Contemporary Radio Humor" series at the Museum of Television and Radio, along with works of Stan Freberg, Bob and Ray and other innovators. The globe-hopping adventures of Willoughby and his professorial companion aired on WNYC Radio, produced by Joe Bevilacqua who also did all the voices..."
