Now nearly a quarter-century it has been since Bill passed-on to the Other Side but, how he does live-on within our (older) memories and, his plentiful most careful meticulous work. I am not at all sure re the chronology of his tenure at KPFK but, I believe he directly preceded David Cloud there, also as music director for KPFK for yet-another musical thrill-packed tenure. As it happened David C. lived three-or-so floors above me at the Barrington Plaza, W.L.A., and so there were to be various of musical mini-soires where he would regale a young amateur with the latest goings-on and events up-coming at KPFK-FM. Only later in the Seventies was I to meet Bill Malloch. He had been in contact with myself then, inquiring as to whether the Joseph S. Tushinsky Welte roll collection might become available to him for musicological examination by my agency. Of course, naturally, it was to be. As here, compliments of sneddley, we hear a fine example of Bill's most colorful educative powers, I am of the firm belief that more of his and the like generally, should be made available again, to the purpose of life given it all anew! One particular item of David Cloud's that comes to mind was his extensive Scriabin series done around late '69 or '70. It was just past-superlative. Onward and upward . . . +:|:+
That is so well expressed about “Bill”. Much appreciation. I remember him so well, his special qualities, going back to my childhood in the 1960’s...Eric
Great that someone besides me has thought to preserve some of Billy Malloch's programs. I had many but eventually tossed the cassettes because no one was interested and I was moving around. Today I was listening to a program here on YT all about European music boxes and establishing tempo from historical records and I thought of Bill. That's how I thought to search his name and landed here. The video is titled "Earliest "recording" in music history! - 220 year old Joseph Haydn Organ" on Wintergaten's channel. Cheers.
Am very glad to know another person who knows and can appreciate Bill Malloch's work. I have been fortunate that someone did preserve quite a few of his shows and shared with me. Thanks very much for the clue about the "Earliest "recording" in music history" (am now subscribed to the Wintergaten channel). I find it most interesting, as they are looking at the kind of things Bill's explored tirelessly and I believe he would have found it of great interest and would have been gratified knowing these questions about music were still being explored, and with such clear devotion and detail. The mechanical aspects examined are especially fascinating and enjoyable. All the Best, Eric
@@sneddley Hi Eric, I greatly enjoyed listening to this program, and really appreciate you taking the time and effort to upload it. I was just wondering if you were planning on uploading more programs featuring Mr. Malloch. Cheers, Wilson
The GREAT William Malloch. I wish I had known him.
