DISNEY ENTRANCE |
Host Joe Bevilacqua (Joe Bev) is shanghaied by Trapper Carl DSC (Joe Bev), Chippy the parrot (Lorie Kellogg), and their marauding band of pirates who takeover the show and send the audience on a wild trip through Disneyland's "Pirates of the Caribbean" ride, including rare tracks never-before heard of Mel Blanc, Paul Frees and others.
"I took these raw tracks and orchestrated them into an hour that makes you feel like you are going through the wildest and longest ride ever!" explains Bev. |

Pirates of the Caribbean is a Disney-made log flume themed dark ride
at Disneyland Park, Walt Disney

World Resort Magic Kingdom, Tokyo
Disneyland, and Disneyland Paris. This was the last attraction which
Walt Disney himself participated in designing; it opened three
months after his death, in the spring of 1967. It was originally
envisioned to be a walk-through wax museum attraction. It is located
within the New Orleans Square portion of Disneyland, its facade
evoking antebellum era New Orleans, topped by a 31-star United
States flag (which would indicate the 1850s). The ornate initials of
Walt Disney and Roy Disney (W.D. and R.D.) can be seen entwined in
the wrought iron railings above the attraction's entrance at
Disneyland. An overhead sign at the boat dock names it for the
famous pirate Jean Lafitte (although his name is misspelled
Laffite), who fought alongside the U.S. Army at the Battle of New
Orleans in the War of 1812. The second floor of the facade was
originally designed to be a private Disney family apartment. Instead
it later opened as an art-related retail/museum space called the
Disney Gallery until late 2007 when it was replaced by the
Disneyland Dream Suite. During the course of the indoor boat ride,
guests float through an immersive, larger-than-life pirate adventure
featuring gunshots, cannon blasts, burning buildings, and carousing
and pillaging pirates, all accompanied by the now-iconic song "Yo Ho
(A Pirate's Life for Me)" written by George Bruns and Xavier
Atencio. (Wikipedia)

Joe Bevilacqua, also known as Joe Bev, is primarily known as a radio theater dramatist, but his career has taken him into every aspect of show business, including stage, film, and television, as a producer, director, writer, actor, and even cartoonist. In 1971 his father bought him a cassette recorder, on which he created his first audio story, Willoughby and the Professor, acting all the voices himself at the age of twelve. In 1975 Daws Butler, the voice of Yogi Bear and many other Hanna-Barbera and Jay Ward cartoon characters, dubbed himself Bevilacqua’s personal mentor after hearing a 120-minute cassette of Willoughby improvisations. Since 1980 Bevilacqua has produced many award-winning radio programs for National Public Radio, Sirius-XM Satellite Radio, and others. | HEAR ALL OF OUR PODCASTS IN ONE PLACE!
