Pulp Music

Can music be pulpy? What are some songs that you would consider pulp ? "The Legend Of Woolly Swamp" By Charlie Daniels is one I would consider pulp

Question I posted some CDs and Records of the Shadow Radio show along with a VHS collection of the 1940 serial and it got taken down..was that stuff in some way a violation of the rules or does it all have to be in a print medium to qualify? I mean he was a pulp icon with over 300 stories so???

TEXT formatting question

I’m reading through some old pulp magazines and every few paragraphs or so there’s a space between paragraphs and the first word or two is in all caps or small caps. Sometimes the reason is obvious, like a scene change or time skip or POV change, but other times (most times, really) it just seems to be a random thing. No scene change, POV change, time change…nothing. Just the same scene carrying on, but there’s a space and caps.

I’m looking at pages from various pulps and they all seem to do this. Anyone know why this was done?

Some DocSavage by "Kenneth Robeson " ( Lester Dent) fun pulp adventure published from 1933the 1949 and went to paperback reprints starting in the 1960s. These are the Sanctum press facsimile reprints from the 2000s with all the original art as well.

Do you consider this genre to be part of the pulp genre?

Mature Rating

Should media that either creates or adapts pulpy fiction always aim for a mature rating?
