From rbaldock at tiscali.co.uk Sat May 1 18:17:50 2004 From: rbaldock at tiscali.co.uk (Robbie Baldock) Date: Sat May 1 18:18:02 2004 Subject: [Exotica] I met Bob Moog and Jean-Jacques Perrey! Message-ID: <40944C3E.18936.10C8AFA@localhost> [spoiler space in case anyone's catching these guys on their lecture tour...] Wow. Last night I went to see a lecture ("How the Moog Synthesizer Became A Household Name") by two living legends - and two men who have been responsible for much of my musical taste over the last 2-3 decades(!), Dr Bob Moog and Jean-Jacques Perrey! Dr Bob was first on (I guess he was the warm-up guy?!) and spoke for about 45 minutes. He talked about what was happening in electronic music in the 60s and how he started out making modules, went on to hook these up into giant modular monsters and eventually managed to put them together in the somewhat more portable Minimoog and its more recent incarnation, the Moog Voyager. He had a slide show which had a couple of shots of some great machines but mostly they were pictures of lots of the cover art of the "Moog Records" that came out in the late 60s/early 70s (including Switched On Bach, Kaleidoscopic Vibrations, Moog Indigo, Electric Eclectics as well as many "knock off" albums). He also demonstrated how sounds can be synthesized on the Voyager - the biggest "ooo!" moment was when he showed off the new touch-sensitive pad in the middle of the control panel which you can use to manipulate the sound (like a Kaoss Pad I assume). During the lecture he played a lot of snippets of music from the various artists and albums he mentioned. He drew to a close by playing a track from "Switched On Bach 2000" (which apparently was all done digitally - no Moogs this time). He then re-played a track from the original Switched On Bach (a Moog album he doesn't think has ever been bettered by the way) and hoped that we would all agree that the original analogue sound was much more enjoyable, even if less technically complex. I think the general concensus was indeed that it was better - it sounded great through the PA. Bob didn't want to end on a downer so he finished by giving examples of what he thought represented positive directions for analogue synths: a track by The Kurstins (theremin + analogue synth duo) and one by the Moog Cookbook(!). Rather surprisingly, he didn't mention the Moog film which is coming out - maybe he just forgot... Anyway, Jean-Jacques Perrey came on straight afterwards and Dr Bob took over controls of the CD player. JJP is truly bonkers. He's well into his 70s but was still bubbling over with enthusiasm and energy - he sees his mission on earth is to make "happy music". I won't even go into his "stage show" which he does with a small furry "assistant"...!!! Like Bob Moog, he played several tracks from his time making music for commercials in NYC and the work he did with Gershon Kingsley. He's a living legend himself but he told us stories about his meetings with several other luminaries such as Jean Cocteau (who was the one who urged him to go to the US), Charles Trenet, Edith Piaf, Salvador Dali and Walt Disney to name a few...! JJP closed by getting Dr Bob to stick E.V.A. on the CD player while he jammed along on the Voyager...! There then followed a Q&A session - and thankfully there were a few questions from the (very small) audience. Bob Moog was asked about how he sees the future of electronic music and he thought that there wasn't much left to do in terms of sound generation electronics but that the next area which was crying out for a major step forward was the design of interfaces between musicians and their instruments. He's interested in more ergonomic control panels, different ways of interacting with instruments and even investigating ways to control instruments with pure thought/emotion...! Jean-Jacques told us how much he loved being in Scotland - and especially "your potato scones"! Afterwards I was lucky enough to speak to them both and got Dr Bob to sign my copy of Copper Plated Integrated Circuit (Walter Sear's LP on Command) and JJP to sign my copy of Kaleidoscopic Vibrations. I confess I was somewhat awe-struck by the whole affair. They're doing one more lecture as part of the Triptyph Festival, tomorrow evening in Glasgow: http://www.triptych04.com/html/glasgow.html Phew!

Dear friends, Lucia Pamela fans and relatives, Today, May 1, Lucia Pamela is with us (now in heaven and way up high) for 100 YEARS !!! HOORAY AND HOOSAY!!!!!! A great day to dance an extra round around the Maydaytree,or Xmastree, if you have one near you. 100 years ago,when The great World's Fair was being held in St.Louis, and that whole city was under the ban of all kinds of exotic shows from all over the world, the first ice-horn got distributed and Edison invented lightbulbs and the first phonograph for the people, a well-kown St.Louis Lady pianist,organist/ composer gave birth to a girl with very very bright eyes.... The little baby girl was called Lucia Pamela, after her Mother, Lucia Beck. This was one century ago! You all know what happened later. At least, what happened in the 1960's, when Lucia Pamela made her album 'Into Outer Space with Lucia Pamela'. We have got to know Lucia Pamela as one of the most remarkable American female entertainers and the first woman on the moon. CONGRATULATIONS EVERYONE! Please celebrate along with me at my Celebration-page on Lucia Pamela, specially created for this day, at: http://tinyurl.com/yqt2r through this webpage you can also read all the updated news on my filmproject. Why not play Lucia's music today, for example her song 'Dear Me', (if you have Lucia's music within reach) and sing along?!!! this email has been sent to friends, fans, and familymembers of Lucia Pamela, with whom I have been in contact about Lucia Pamela and my project on her through the last past years... or a friend I'd like to introduce. keep in touch! dear wishes, Danielle Lemaire http://home.iae.nl/users/jada/innerlandscapes/home.html http://www.iae.nl/users/jada -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Space Bop #265 Angry Young Men (And Women) This week, we're playing an hour of the beginnings of 'punk' music, featuring seminal tracks from the 1976-78 era (and a few that led up to it). Not only from the US and UK, but also Australia, Germany and Switzerland. We will be following this up over the next several weeks with shows on the "post-punk" era, 1979-1981. Many of you probably haven't listened to these tracks in years - and it's interesting to see how they have withstood the test of time.

Actually I thought the sax worked pretty well with X-Ray Spex (and even better in Fear's "New York's Alright if You Like Saxophones". ^_^).

"Rugrats" is designed by its producers, Klasky-Csupo Studios, to appeal to fairly young children. You will find the series is cutesy-poo to the point of being annoying, in addition to highly repetitious (alleged "studies" show that children like repetition because it is comforting). The series has played for over ten years with little significant development in characters, plot, or anything else. Musically, you would hear the same themes played with the same samples regardless of the age of the cartoon you happen to be watching at the time. ----- Original Message ----- I?m glad to read that.

Don't be deceived by the titles on the cover, this is most definitely NOT a collection of TV themes.

I don?t like sax in a special kind of music. early punk or new wave in late 70ties early 80ties. so wonderful energyful music ,three chords on the guitar , powerful bassline, simple but effective drums, it was so wonderful till the moment the longhaired music-student, the only one in the band that could read notes, starts with his sax. uuuargh!

Message-ID: A couple of recent finds/trades/buys/steals ;-) San Fernando Brass : The New Brass Sound Of The Hits : Capitol Quadraphonic Tijuana Brass cash-in I thought first but it's more orchestral with a variety of instruments (such as harmonica) chiming in or taking the lead... The brass is there allright but it isn't as "in yer face" as you'd expect. Great tunes are Moscow Nights (wordless vocals), Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head, Scarborough Fair... Hell, I even like their rendition of Guantanamera! Teddy Rodderman : New World Trombones : Canadian Talent Library More brass here. Again enjoyable Now Sound on the softer side but It Was A Very Good Year has got punch and class. Les Chakachas : Eso Es El Amor : RKM this one made for a bit of confusion... Airbrushed coverart and a stamp 'new recording 77' clearly made this one of their later LPs (this is a 2LP set) but a look at the tracklist had such old Chaks material as Rebecca, Eso Es El Amor and The Peanut Vendor... Most of the titles didn't ring a bell though so I decided to give it a try (I have several spare Chakachas LPs - those interested should get in touch off list). Turns out these are 'new' recordings allright. There's a 70's latin beat and wah wah guitar running through most of the tracks. Some stuff like Hot Hands is in a Jungle Fever line (but as played by The Meters, maybe) - Soledad is pure Nu-Jazz-with-strings anno 2002 - Oye Me has a great percussion workout and even a classic standard like St. Louis Blues gets a laidback treatment... There's several vocal cuts here too - not all of which work well (in a Love Boat funk meets tango kinda way) but the stuff that does is GROOVY ;-)) Of course, this LP comes with no extra information whatsoever... :-/ Bud Shank / Clare Fisher : Brasamba : Pacific Jazz Shank was a pioneer who combined Brasilian rhythms with jazz long before Bossa Nova made it to the States. In fact, his early collaborations with Laurindo Almeida (mid 1950's) had quite an impact on Jobim & Co. when they developed the Bossa Nova sound... This one is later, 1962, but has a couple of great cuts on it. Recommended to those who like their Bossa gentle and jazzy... More than half of these are original compositions and sound GREAT... Tony Mottola : The Tantalizing Guitars by : Command This is a (UK?) reissue of Love Songs of Mexico/South America. Black Orpheus Theme, Girl From Ipanema, Brasilia, Bamba are all sort of ok in a Mottola way... There's organ (Dick!) and accordeon (Charles!) and some tight percussion on some of these tracks. Tony could play but some of this stuff is just too tame.... Frankly, the most tantalizing thing about this album is the dame on the cover. L'Orchestre Brésilien Ritmo Da Bossa : Bossa Nova : Barclay French 10" with above average bossa tunes - quite excellent, authentic and dynamic renditions of One Note Samba, Desafinado, Corcovado... All tracktitles are in Portugese, the coverart looks like a Calypso librarystock shot. As Brad said: you wonder who is really behind this... Louis Prima : Rendez-Vous With : EMI Compilation of the energetic Prima - The Lip is a great cut - Five Months, Two Weeks, Two Days will have to go in this weekend's show! Ouch! Ay! Ouch Ouch Ay!! Richard "Groove" Holmes : Super Soul : Prestige Fonky organ with orchestra... Solid LP with Why Don't You Do Right, I Will Wait For You, Bluesette... All _hits_, no _misses_ ;-) Gustav Brom : Goes Pop : MPS poppy jazz or jazzy pop (?) on the great Schwartzwald label MPS. I'm a sucker for this sound - orchestral and swinging jazz versions of smooth songs. Most of this stuff seem original compositions which is always a plus when digging for something fresh in this genre. Niki & Heinz : Sound 2000 : Cardinal early 70's release on a Belgian label I never heard of... As a whole this album is not solid enough to warrant a reissue but some tracks are good enough for me. Rockin' guitar, BEAT drums, the occasional moog, wordless background singing - those tracks work best though one has to jump cuts to get to the good bits... And this is the cream de la cream of last weekend’s flea haul The Indo Jazzmen : Ragas And Reflections : Saga Ouch! A spare one (but allas already reserved ;-) of this John Mayer/Joe Harriott cash-in on the budget Saga label. Jazz goes sitar + tabla. You won’t find the easy funk groove on this one but it’s a great album nonetheless with long tracks that draw heavy on repetition. At €1 and in NM condition this makes for a nice upgrade to my older more worn and more expensive original ;-) I found another Saga LP in the same stack – The Islanders : Hawaiian Paradise – I’d confused this with that Hawaii LP of The Surfmen (which I have in a French edition on Vogue where they’re called L’Ensemble Instrumental Des Iles)... Anyway, it’s a bland Hawaiian album as far as I’ve heard it. Another good one in the same stack: Chicken Curry And His Pop Percussion Orchestra : Stereo Discotheque : MFP Stoopid name – this must be Belgian! Names on the back confirm this – N. Roland, Guy Delo, RKM as the publishing house... All familiar from the later Chakachas LPs. Now for the music: IT KILLS!! Baaad bass with wicked breaks all over... OH MY GOD its heAAAAVYy! Serious wah wah shit and man oh man its simply too much! How did they expect to move that shit with a dumb name like that? Beats me... The Titles – Librium, Grand Prix (with FX of old school carraces), Drums Go Nuts, The Snake, Ghetto Groove, Malaria Fever etc say enough... Well, so do Last Tango In Paris & Une Belle Histoire for that matter – but hey, let’s skip those and dig that ill shit – it’s awesome! Malaria Fever has exactly the same guitar riff as Les Chak’s Jungle Fever. WHAT’S GOING ON HERE??? There’s tons more from the weeks past but I’ll hold it here. Sometimes the stuff pours in and even simply listing the titles is too much work ;-) I’m spoiled rotten...

Absolutely! I have to admit at first listening I found X Ray Spex to be particularly annoying, and let's face it Poly Styrene's vocals are as off-key as the sax... and then some! But over time I grew to appreciate this group and could now never think of any punk collection without them included. As we mentioned on the show, it took us years to replace that record which we sold for reasons either of us can remember. Anyway, I'm never one to question odd or unusual use of instruments, since the odd and unusual is what most interests me in music....

I know william has got some of the poppier, vocal songs from HK films, but has anyone ever found any of this stuff? Or got any idea who to look for?

I'm sending this note to the Exotica group, through my buddy Lou Smith. Don't have time to visit this group much, but I thought some of you would like to know the latest developments with Cool and Strange Music Magazine. An many of you know, I was the founder, editor and publisher for 7 years. I sold the rights in Feb. 2003 to it to a guy named Myke O'Clock who had been my webmaster and occasional contributor. He showed every sign of being the perfect one to continue with the magazine, but he ended up never producing a single issue, and letting everyone down. Not only did I trust him with my creation, to keep it going through the years, but many of you trusted him with your subscription money and got nothing in return. I am truly sad about this, and assure you that if I'd foreseen the future, it never would have happened this way. I surely would have issued refunds on unused subscriptions, and advertising dollars, instead of just keeping the money. I don't know Myke's reasons for not putting out the magazine, but at this point, I think it's fairly safe to say that the magazine is dead. An interested buyer came forward recently, and approached me about wanting to buy the rights to the name from Myke, who is now the legal owner. We both contacted Myke, to support him to sell, but our registered letters, phone calls and e-mails went unanswered by him. I don't know what to say, except that this guy changed from a reliable, trustworthy acquaintance, to an unproductive, secretive and unresponsive person. I am truly feeling disappointed and betrayed. To all my friends on this list, please know that I have nothing to do with the lack of output, or fulfillment of your pending subscriptions. I do still have some back issues for sale on my site at http://www.danacountryman.com, and I'm going to be making some RARE out of print issue available for purchase soon. I'm sorry, these back issues can't be sent out, to replace any issues that Myke still owes you.

This is a groovy little library/production album from the Capitol Hi "Q" series. Capitol HI "Q"s were produced from 1956 to around 1969, and they were used extensively for production work throughout the 50s and 60s, primarily in the US. Sea Hunt, The Twilight Zone, Lost In Space, and dozens of other TV shows routinely licensed songs from the Hi "Q" series. The Hi "Q"s came in 5 series: L = Light, D = Drama, M = Melodic, S = Short Cues, and X = Specialty. This album from the L series, and it contains 12 tracks...each one named after an astrological sign. If you like the quirky, Carnaby Street "now sound," then this one should be right up yer alley!

The cover art has been dropped though (along with the price) as it's a) too time consuming cutting out each cover and tray liner with an exacto blade and b) photo ink cartridges and photo paper add up fast. Besides the two-fers, there are also eight-fers. :) Eight LPs on one disc, encoded to 320kbps tagged MP3 files. I don't have a link to these on the front page of my site - I don't want to be too obvious about this - but there is a link to them on the message boards (buy sell and trade forum). You'll also find a purchase option every other week when you click on the Space Age Pop Featured Album link. Lots more to come of these, so if there is nothing for you today, check back tomorrow - not really tomorrow tomorrow, but soon :) ford From gojira69 at sbcglobal.net Wed May 5 21:00:26 2004 From: gojira69 at sbcglobal.net (Bob Burns) Date: Wed May 5 21:00:33 2004 Subject: [Exotica] Raymondo's Dance-O-Rama: Last call for Peanuts!!

Chief Bey (James Hawthorne Bey) died in Brooklyn in April at the age of 90, though in life he could have passed for somebody in his 60s. He was a master percussionist and African-style drummer as well as a teacher who influenced hundreds of other musicians. His recorded work can be heard on albums by Pharoah Sanders, Herbie Mann, Randy Weston, and others: he had one solo album, a distinctive album combining Yoruba Religious Chants with Gospel songs on the Mapleshade label. He was also an elder priest of Sango (Shango/Chango/Xango) in the Yoruba/Lucumi religion. His funeral--which I attended--was quite the affair with testimonials from friends and family as well as musicians like Randy Weston and Montego Joe; it concluded with a traditional Yoruba ceremony. Either very sadly or very romantically, his wife died 9 days later, on what would have been his 91st birthday. ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.

Orquesta Aragon : Live in NYC, July 15, 1983 : Monitor Nice surprise! Big latin band that kicks booty!! The opening track makes me think of Don Ralke's Bongo Madness. Plenty of percussion all over the place... flute solo's... rough vocals and ... violins!

The orange juice that's served isn't usually top-notch and if it is, it unfortunately gets watered-down by the wine. The sparkling wine is never top-notch, and a little OJ could never disguise that. However, if it were top-notch--I'd never ever expose its subtleties to a dose of orange juice! The Mimosa was a lose-lose situation...until now. Recently, I discovered that if you give up the orange juice entirely, but make your mimosa with Orangina instead, a light orange soda from France, you're half-way there to a logical Mimosa. The other half is a delicious, light, sparkling wine that doesn't taste fruity and cheap, and doesn't take itself too seriously...ecco, Prosecco! Mionetto Prosecco is one of my favorite brands for this purpose, particularly their light and agreeable Mionetto Prosecco di Valdobbiadene Frizzante ($13), only about 11% alcohol. Orangina is available in grocery stores everywhere. So, to prepare your Prosecco/Orangina Mimosa: Chill the liquids. Pour 3 ounces of Orangina into the glass. Then, pouring from a height of a few inches above the rim of the glass, pour in 6 ounces of the Prosecco so that it foams up in the glass. (If you'd like a sweeter Mimosa, add more Orangina.) Serve immediately. You may have to force a few snobs to give the formerly fuddy-duddy Mimosa another chance...but they'll end up happy that you did! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Guavalini I can't resist giving you one more sparkling wine and fruit juice combo for your brunch--one that I invented a few years back on a plane to Hawaii! The cabin crew was serving some indifferent sparkling wine from California, which I started to drink--until I noticed that, this being a Hawaiian flight, they were serving guava juice as well. Mixology at 30,000 feet, I discovered, can be highly rewarding! The two beverages together tasted much, much better than either one by itself. I have since refined this thing in my kitchen. Chill a decent bottle of dry sparkling wine from somewhere in the world--California, Spain, Italy, France, etc. But not good Champagne! Save that for another time. Chill a can or bottle of guava juice as well; Goya makes a decent one that is widely available. When ready to serve, pour 4 ounces of the sparkling wine into a Champagne flute, and vigorously stir in 3 ounces of guava juice. I hope you find, as I do, that a true rush of the Hawaiian Islands comes over you as you sniff and sip this drink. If not.....drink a little more! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Perfect Gin & Tonic Oh, yes, Champagne's a great way to start any evening's gastronomic activities. But I, on a warm summer's night, in the gathering twilight, on the verandah, wearing my crisply pressed white dinner jacket, chatting with Noel Coward about cricket, reach far more often for a gin & tonic, surely one of the most refreshing, palate-opening cocktails ever invented. Problem is, the state of gin-and-tonic-making is at perilously low levels. Whenever I order one (well, usually without a white dinner jacket, and usually discussing the Mets with some guys from Queens), some combination of the following problems crops up: too much gin not enough gin gin that's too strong tonic that's flavorless tonic that's flat too much ice too little ice too little lime So I got to work, attempting once and for all to standardize all that I love about G&T-ness. Here are the secrets: 1) The drink works best with a gin that's light, low in alcohol--otherwise the drink is bitter and hot. I recently compared the alcohol levels of gins on the market, and was amazed to find a range from 41.2% alcohol up to almost 50% alcohol! The one that was 41.2% is Plymouth Gin, one of the lightest, loveliest gins you can buy, bursting with flavor (its recipe using juniper berries, coriander seeds, citrus peel and angelica root was first made in 1793), and certainly my favorite for the gin & tonic. It was a favorite of such luminaries as Ian Fleming (did Bond drink G&Ts?), Winston Churchill and FDR. The latter consumed it at Campobello because it used to be available in the American market, but has been off for decades--until its re-introduction this year. That's big news! I say grab it now, by all means, for the best G&T you've ever had. 2) The drink works best with the right tonic water--which is to say water that's very lively/bubbly, and water that has much of the traditional quinine flavor. There are a number of tonic waters widely available but, for my money, the out-and-out leader in the field--the only one I'll use--is Schweppes. I like to buy it in small bottles so that it remains unopened and fresh; if you're buying large bottles, make sure you can use most of it right after you open it. 3) Lastly, the biggest secret of all: take your Schweppes water and pour it into an ice cube tray! A few hours later, your Tonic Ice Cubes will provide you with the tightest-tasting, most integrated G&T you can imagine--with no watery meltdown as your conversation with Noel gets heated. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Frosty Plymouth Gin & Tonic makes one gin & tonic four Schweppes Tonic Water Ice Cubes (see NOTE) 3 ounces Plymouth Gin 4 ounces Schweppes Tonic Water 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice lime wedge for garnish 1. Place the ice cubes in a tall, narrow, chilled glass (the cubes should come near the top.) Add the gin, then the tonic water, then the lime juice, stirring well. Garnish with lime wedge, and serve immediately. White dinner jacket is optional. NOTE: To make the ice cubes, simply fill an empty ice cube tray with Schweppes Tonic Water, and let the cubes freeze. It takes just a few hours. Covered well, the cubes will remain fresh-tasting in the freezer for at least a few weeks. Plymouth Original Dry Gin is imported by Todhunter Imports Ltd.

Working in batches, pur??e the canned tomatoes and their thick pur??e in a food processor. You will have a rich liquid, with no lumps. 2. In a large bowl, or pot, combine the pur??e with the tomato juice, and blend well. 3. Add the celery salt, sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, cayenne, Tabasco, and vodka. Season to taste with salt; you may need more than you expect to bring up the flavor of the mix (canned tomatoes have less salt than tomato juice). Keep mixture cold. 4. When ready to serve, fill up an 8-ounce tumbler with ice cubes. Pour about 4 ounces of Bloody Mary mixture over the ice, which should almost fill the glass. Garnish with pickled vegetables, at least 3 pieces per glass. Vegetable Garnish Note: Arrange at least 4 or 5 different kinds of pickled vegetables on 4 or 5 dishes; your guests will help themselves to the garnishes for their Bloody Marys. Generally speaking, "long " vegetables (such as pickled okra, pickled string beans, pickled asparagus spears work best as stirrers. But "short" vegetables (pickled cocktail onions, pimiento-stuffed olives, pickled "Tuscan" peppers) can work too, as long as you thread several of each one on a toothpick. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tastings is a free monthly E-Zine From sarah_e.edgson at virgin.net Thu May 6 15:56:58 2004 From: sarah_e.edgson at virgin.net (Sarah E Edgson) Date: Thu May 6 15:56:11 2004 Subject: [Exotica] cocktails from the rosengartenreport.com References: <2965435.1083879605685.JavaMail.root@wamui09.slb.atl.earthlink.net> Message-ID: <001301c433b5$126dcf20$54860252@edgson> >>> It was a favorite of such luminaries as Ian Fleming (did Bond drink G&Ts?) tsk tsk tsk Martini (shaken not stirred). *Dearie me*. hugs, GeorgyGirl "The name you choose for yourself is more your own than the name you're born with" http://www.geocities.com/georgygirl64uk From onois at comcast.net Thu May 6 16:44:15 2004 From: onois at comcast.net (onois) Date: Thu May 6 16:44:19 2004 Subject: [Exotica] Stirred.

The Sean Connery James Bond period had a Smirnoff tie-in? That surprises me. It was early for tie-ins like that I would think. Tie ins sounds 80's, not 60's.

In Dr. No. (1962) a bottle of Smirnoff Vodka is prominently displayed when Bond asks a waiter for a vodka martini (shaken--not stirred). In fact Smirnoff Vodka was featured in many of the Bond movies up until Die Another Day (2002), when Finlandia Vodka bought product-placement rights.

Listen to The Seatsniffers (from Belgium), they are very good, it?s more rhythm?n blues with a rockabilly type delivery. I think you will love them. Quite OT for this list I think!

Heres another, you mean the original southern, hiccuping crude stuff? Rather than the pop cash in of the early 80's and the odder Psychobilly spawn of the cramps that gave rise to so many excessive quiffs over here. For the original thing you could try the Ace catalogue, but theres a lot of other stuff in there. But like so much genre stuff, lots of it didn't sell well, so you have great one-offs on small labels (Which is where Ace came in). heres an Ace historical introductory comp, http://66.232.131.72/cgi-bin/SearchCatNo.asp?strProdID=CHD218 heres a psychobilly one http://66.232.131.72/cgi-bin/SearchCatNo.asp?strProdID=WIK18 There was a time when Ace had loads of them out, there was a great one I heard "the best of Chess Checker and Cadet Rockabillies", there was a Sun one as well, they pushed that a bit, some raw acoustic white blues. Anyway heres a sun one, some good names on there, too. http://www.unionsquaremusic.co.uk/title.php?ALBUM_ID=246&LABEL_ID=7 Charlie Feathers is a must, anyway. Also by the by, I met Guy Stevens widow at a party I was DJing who was touting this very fine RnB comp http://www.acerecords.co.uk/gotrt/apr04/cdchd1008.html Anyway thats enough half informed nonsense, good luck.

Like, he turned me on to Vinnie Bell and such. He also uses the (once) rare or unlikey guitars, like Magnatones, Danelectros, probably Micro-Frets and such. He?s also successfully avoiding obvious Rockabilly clich?s, new or old. SCOTS bring back the broad view, that was present when bands like The Cramps, The Blasters, The Stray Cats (Brian Setzer) were starting it.

I have had the eponymous "link Wray" 1971 album since it came out. At the age of 15 I did not realize there was any Link Wray legacy so to speak and that album was my sole exposure to Link Wray for many, many years. It became one of my favorite albums ever. All I gotta say is that period in Link's career is especially inspired. Recently I discovered and downloaded the "Beans and Fatback" tunes off SoulSeek and since them my soul has been seeking the other albums in that era. Anyone on this list know any other "sharing" software I can hook up with, or better yet, anyone on this list have the other albums of Link's from that period we can share? As far as I know the other albums from the Polydor period are called "Mordicai Jones", "Be What You Want To", and "The Link Wray Rumble".

During this year's Suoini Per Il Popolo festival (I posted about this earlier this week), they're having a "Children's Sun Ra Parade", so my wife and I will be bringing one of her friend's children to the park to take part. And for sure, I'll be wearing a sparkling cape and salad bowl helmet, addressing the "children of Earth"! I found some additional info on this record from ubuweb. Your attention is drawn to the last sentence: John Cage Meets Sun Ra, Meltdown MPA-1 (1987). Alternates performances by Sun Ra-Yamaha DX-7; and John Cage-voc. Sideshows by the Sea, Coney Island, NY, 6/8/86. [Album jacket plus Andrejko] Sideshows by the Sea was the last surviving freak show along the Coney Island boardwalk. Ra and Cage's appearance was duly announced by the barker outside. Other portions of this concert, which included Pharaoh Abdullah processing and dancing, and Ra and Cage performing together, may have been recorded but haven't been issued. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Anybody use one of these? Sounds like a great solution to having to have your stereo equipment in the same room as your computer.

Sounds like a preamp to me, Nate! They are nice and small and eliminate the need for bringing your whole stereo system into play. Just a word of caution - I tried one of these and had lot's of problems with noise - big time hum. I tried grounding and this and that and finally gave up. Mind you, this was a cheap-o $30 piece of crap. I chalked it up to the old saying "you get what you pay for" and went back to my stereo instead of paying really money for a quality preamp. As much as I do this, I'm no techie, so wait for a couple of other comments on this from others.

Award-winning film, television composer Fred Karlin dies at 67 The Associated Press CULVER CITY, Calif. Fred Karlin, an eclectic music composer who won an Oscar and an Emmy for his work and counted Benny Goodman among his bosses, has died. He was 67. Karlin died of cancer on March 26 at Brotman Medical Center in Culver City, family friend Marilee Bradford said Thursday. Details for a memorial service in September were incomplete, she said. In 1971, Karlin - born Frederick James Karlin - shared an Academy Award for best song, "For All We Know," which became a top 10 hit for the Carpenters and was featured in the 1970 film "Lovers and Other Strangers." He was nominated for three other Oscars. One, "Come Saturday Morning" for the 1969 film "The Sterile Cuckoo" starring Liza Minnelli, became a top 10 hit for the Sandpipers. His two other nominations were for songs in the 1970 film "The Baby Maker" and the 1972 film "The Little Ark." Karlin won an Emmy for his score of "The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman," a 1974 television movie. In 1990, he co-wrote "On the Track," a textbook on film scoring and in 1994 wrote "Listening to Movies: The Film Lover's Guide to Film Music." "Fred Karlin has achieved two things wonderfully well. He makes the how of film music intelligible to the most tone-deaf layman. But more significantly, he communicates the why of film music - the philosophies that dictate its use," former Los Angeles Times entertainment editor Charles Champlin wrote about the textbook. Karlin, skilled in blues, classical, rock, folk and medieval music, began playing the trumpet and studying jazz in his teens. He worked as a composer and arranger for Benny Goodman after graduating from Amherst College. The Chicago-born composer conducted a group organized by his future wife, Megan Wells-Stagg. The New York City group had a vast range of styles, playing everything from Egyptian music to Civil War songs. Karlin moved his family to Los Angeles in 1969 when he started composing for film. Throughout his career, he composed more than two dozen feature films and more than 100 television productions. He is survived by his wife; three children: Eric, Wendy Karlin and Kathryn Velasquez, all from the Los Angeles area; a brother, Kenneth; and five grandchildren. ----------- Composer known for TV tunes dies Oakland native By Katherine Pfrommer Friday, May 07, 2004 - OAKLAND -- John Seely's name may not strike a chord, but if you've watched TV over the last 50 years, one of his compositions might. The noted pianist and composer, who worked on themes and background music for "Dennis the Menace," "The Donna Reed Show" and Looney Tunes, died April 23 at the Lake Park Retirement Residence in Oakland. He was 80. The Oakland native's work is part of the permanent record at the Museum of TV and Radio. Mr. Seely was born Aug. 23, 1923, as Seely John Gilfilen, family members said. He graduated from Piedmont High School in 1941 and served in the Army during World War II, said daughter Dori Seely Wuepper of the Seattle area. He earned a bachelor's degree in communications at the University of Southern California in 1949 and got a job at Capitol Records, where he became head of the prerecorded background music department. With partner Bill Loose, Mr. Seely provided themes and background music for Warner Brothers cartoons starring Bugs Bunny, Roadrunner, Sylvester and Tweety and others. They also wrote music for "Davey and Goliath," "The Texan," "Frontier Doctor" and "Insight." Mr. Seely's family grew to three daughters with wife Merry Seely. From 1965 to 1968, the couple joined a Catholic lay missionary organization and lived in Kenya. Although the couple divorced, they remained close, his daughter said. In the early 1970s, Mr. Seely moved back to Oakland and volunteered with Project Safety Net, Goodwill Bags and Stagebridge. He also taught at Westlake Junior High School. "He was an incredibly accomplished musician with a very particular talent -- which was being able to create a sound score for live performances," said Stuart Kandell, director of Stagebridge, who worked with Mr. Seely since the late 1980s. "He had a huge, huge heart, and he loved working with children. He still really loved performing." Another vital part was helping others. "He looked for ways to be a good person. My dad took these kids, who were struggling with family life," his daughter said. "He taught them computer and music skills, made sure they went to school and had a trade. He was a real mentor." "He opened his heart for a lot of different people," said Frank Huang of Santa Clara. Huang met Mr. Seely as a student 15 years ago. "There's a group of us who've became his friends over the years," Huang said. "We see him as a very giving person, an important part of our lives." Along with daughter Dori, Mr. Seely is survived by daughters Pati-Ann Misskelley of Michigan and Kathleen Beeler of Reno, Nev.; and eight grandchildren. Merry Seely preceded him in death in 2001.

He was 66. His mother, Emma Kauhi, said the actor better known as Zulu died in Hilo Medical Center of complications from diabetes. Zulu was a popular Waikiki beachboy when he joined the CBS police drama for its first season. He was cast as the burly Hawaiian sidekick to the show's star, Jack Lord. He stayed with the show for four seasons but was fired after an altercation with the show's publicist. The show helped launch a successful entertainment career for Zulu, who sang and joked to packed houses in and around Waikiki. "I know those were his enjoyable days," his mother said. "He was always full of excitement and he had many friends. I know he enjoyed that life very much. Actor James MacArthur, who played Danny "Danno" Williams on the show, wept when he learned of Zulu's death. He said he has many happy memories of Zulu. The Big Island-born Zulu was convicted of second-degree negligent homicide after his vehicle struck and killed a a bicyclist training for the Ironman Triathlon in Kona in 1986. He was fined $500 and placed on one year's probation. Funeral arrangements were pending. His mother said he wanted a beachboy funeral in Waikiki.

Sunday, May 9, 11:00 AM, Charles Theatre 1 Director : Ted Wilde Cast : Harold Lloyd, Ann Christy, Bert Woodruff, Brooks Benedict, Babe Ruth Country : U.S. Year : 1928 Running Time : 86 minutes Format : 35mm Harold "Speedy" Swift (played by Harold Lloyd) might be called by today's standards a slacker. He can't keep a job because he is baseball-crazy and spends too much worrying about the latest scores to do his work. After losing his job as a soda jerk, at least it means that he has the time to spend the day with his girlfriend, Jane. Meanwhile, Jane's grandfather, Pop, runs the last horse-drawn trolley in New York City. The big railroad monopoly wants to run Pop out of business, so they can take over his route. Speedy, after a brief stint as a cab driver, where he had the thrill of driving Babe Ruth to the stadium (and then got fired for staying to watch the game) organizes the neighborhood old-timers to fight the nefarious railroad company who tries to sabotage Pop. Speedy is full of excitement with breakneck chases through New York City. It was also Harold Lloyd's last silent film and earned an Oscar nomination for Best Director for Ted Wilde. -- Dan Krovich Presented By: Alloy Orchestra The Alloy Orchestra is a three man musical ensemble (Roger C. Miller, Ken Winokur, and Terry Donahue), who write and perform live accompaniment to classic silent films. Performing at prestigious film festivals and cultural centers in the US and abroad (The Telluride Film Festival, The Louvre, Lincoln Center, etc.), Alloy has emerged as possibly the best and best known silent film accompanists in the world. An unusual combination of found percussion and state-of-the-art electronics gives the Orchestra the ability to create any sound imaginable. Utilizing their famous "rack of junk" and electronic synthesizers, the group generates beautiful music in a spectacular variety of styles. Now in their 14th year, Alloy began their aural onslaught with their original score for Metropolis in 1991. For the each of the last 11 years, the group has composed a new score and premiered it at the prestigious Telluride Film Festival. In addition to their work with silents, the Orchestra has contributed soundtracks to commercial videos for IBM, UPS, The Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, the National Park Service and other projects. Their work has been featured in contemporary films and videos by directors Errol Morris ( Fast, Cheap and Out of Control ), Jane Gillooly ( Dragonflies, the Baby Cries ), Ben Meade ( Vakvagny ) and others. i spent all day watching movies.

He was 80. The cause was brain cancer, said his wife, Phyllis. Mr. Kessel had been inactive since a stroke in 1992, and he learned in 2001 that he had inoperable cancer. By the mid-1950's Mr. Kessel was one of the most popular guitarists in jazz, a perennial winner of music magazine polls and a sideman whose résumé included work with Charlie Parker, Billie Holiday, Art Tatum and countless others. But he still found it hard to pay his bills, so he began a second career in the studios, which came to dominate his professional life until he decided to return to jazz full time in the 1970's. He was born in Muskogee, Okla., on Oct. 17, 1923, and began his professional career there at 14 as the only white musician in an otherwise all-black dance band. Mr. Kessel initially modeled his style closely on that of the pioneering electric guitarist Charlie Christian, a fellow Oklahoman, and he continued to regard Christian as his main influence. But when he had the opportunity to play with Christian at a jam session, he told The New York Times in 1991, the experience inspired him to develop a style of his own. "I realized that I had been methodically lifting his ideas from records," Mr. Kessel said. "What was I going to play? All I knew was his stuff. There were two guys playing like Charlie Christian. I knew I had to find myself." With Christian's encouragement, Mr. Kessel moved to Los Angeles in 1942 and was soon on the road with a band fronted by the comedian Chico Marx. Over the next few years he worked with the big bands of Artie Shaw, Charlie Barnet and Benny Goodman, establishing a reputation as one of the most versatile and reliable guitarists on the West Coast. He soon began working regularly as a sideman for the record producer Norman Granz, and in 1944 he was one of the many musicians featured in "Jammin' the Blues," the acclaimed short jazz film produced by Granz and directed by the photographer Gjon Mili. (In a strange echo of his first job, Mr. Kessel was the only white musician in that film; all that was clearly visible of him were his hands, which were dyed black.) Mr. Kessel's profile in the jazz world continued to grow in the 1950's. In 1952 he joined the pianist Oscar Peterson's trio and toured with Granz's all-star Jazz at the Philharmonic aggregation. The next year he began his recording career as a leader with the first of a series of small-group albums for the Los Angeles-based Contemporary label. Within a few years he had also become a fixture in Hollywood's recording studios. In this parallel career he could be heard on movie and television soundtracks and in television and radio commercials as well as on records by everyone from the Beach Boys to Liberace to Frank Sinatra. In 1973 he joined forces with his fellow jazz guitarists Herb Ellis and Charlie Byrd to form the group Great Guitars. In 1983 at 59 he made his New York nightclub debut as a leader. In addition to his wife, Mr. Kessel is survived by two sons from a previous marriage: Dan, of Hemet, Calif., and David, of Pacific Grove, Calif. Also surviving are three stepchildren: Christian Wand, of Los Angeles; Colette Wand Wirtschafter, of Marysville, Calif.; and Cleo Dougherty, of Boonton, N.J.; and five grandchildren. --- End forwarded message --- ===== "I hate quotations.

(fwd) Sorry, Lou! ---------------------- Forwarded Message: --------------------- I posted a link to this obit from the Telegraph on Saturday - here's the full piece: Barney Kessel (Filed: 08/05/2004) Barney Kessel, who died on Thursday aged 80, was one of the finest exponents of the electric guitar in jazz; his remarkable combination of artistry and craftsmanship made him the most sought-after studio guitarist in Hollywood, but he always contrived to keep his jazz connections in good repair, producing a stream of masterly recordings over almost half a century. Kessel acknowledged his debt to Charlie Christian, the founding genius of the instrument, and was his most distinguished disciple. The stylistic influence was clear in everything Kessel played, but he was able to build his own broad and flexible vocabulary on this foundation over the course of several decades, whereas Christian died young and still developing. Barney Kessel was born at Muskogee, Oklahoma, on October 17 1923. He took up the guitar at the age of 12, teaching himself to play by copying guitarists he heard on the radio and records. He made rapid progress, and within two years was playing regularly with a local band, its only white member. It was during this period that he first played with Christian, an encounter which he later referred to as a life-transforming experience. At the age of 18, Kessel left Muskogee for Los Angeles, intent on making his career in music. After a brief period of casual gigs, eked out by washing dishes, he joined the band led by Chico Marx, later graduating to the bands of Hal McIntyre, Charlie Barnet and Artie Shaw. In 1944 he took part in the short film Jammin' The Blues, starring the tenor saxophonist Lester Young, the first serious attempt to present jazz on screen. Once again, he was the only white musician present. The convention of the time decreed that the two races should not be portrayed working together on equal terms, so Kessel appears throughout in deep shadow or silhouette. The year 1947 saw the start of Kessel's rise to prominence. In February he played under the leadership of Charlie Parker, in a recording session which produced the Parker classic Relaxin' At Camarillo. Towards the end of that year he recorded his own composition, Swedish Pastry, with the clarinettist Stan Hasselgard. He also gained the Esquire Silver Award, the first of many such honours. His reputation continued to grow over the next few years, particularly after 1952, when he joined the Oscar Peterson Trio for a long tour that took in 14 countries. By the time he left the trio the following year he was on the way to becoming the most admired guitarist in modern jazz. Throughout the 1950s he maintained a phenomenal output, both in jazz and high-level studio work. Perhaps the best-known example of the latter is his exquisite accompaniment on Julie London's 1955 hit record, Cry Me A River. His jazz recordings of the period, mainly for the Contemporary label, confirmed his position as a soloist of great poise and imagination. These included the albums To Swing Or Not To Swing (1955); Let's Cook (1957) and Some Like It Hot (1959). In all of these, the directness and clarity of his improvised lines mark Kessel out from the accomplished young players who looked upon him as their mentor. The 1960s saw Kessel even more involved with studio work: I Spy, The Man From UNCLE, The Odd Couple - it seems that there was scarcely a popular television series without his guitar in the background, and it is even to be heard on the soundtracks of four Elvis Presley movies. His jazz output declined somewhat under this workload, but he found time to devise and write a number of guitar manuals. One of his most ardent admirers was the young Phil Spector. Kessel offered him free guitar lessons, and after advising his protege that becoming a producer would be vastly more lucrative than guitar-playing, he gave his services as first call guitarist on virtually all of Spector's Wall of Sound sessions, including You've Lost That Loving Feeling and River Deep Mountain High. Kessel also jammed with Buffalo Springfield, played the Danelectro bass on Sonny & Cher's The Beat Goes On and worked with the Beach Boys, bringing the theramin instrument to Brian Wilson's attention for Pet Sounds and later Good Vibrations. In 1969 Kessel temporarily gave up studio work and moved to London. He performed throughout Britain and Europe for 14 months. Although he moved back to California in late 1970, he continued to make regular visits to Europe thereafter. In 1973 he recorded a particularly fine album at the Montreux Festival with Stephane Grappelli and a band of leading British players. The following year he joined two other guitarists, Herb Ellis and Charlie Byrd, for a concert tour in Australia. The idea proved so popular that it became a semi-permanent institution, touring the world regularly under the title The Great Guitars. Kessel continued to tour and record under his own name, in 1981 making Solo, his only unaccompanied album. A work of polished simplicity and candid sincerity, it conveys perfectly the essence of Kessel's musical character. In 1992 Kessel suffered the stroke which put an end to his playing career. He recovered sufficiently to do a little teaching. He was married three times, and had two sons by his second wife.

I really doubt the original LP would list that information. The alternate takes, however, are mostly limited to the Bonus tracks section. When I originally found all those tracks at AudioGalaxy prior to scoring a copy of the CD myself, it seemed to me that there were even more multiple takes around than the CD accounts for. I could be wrong about that, but it's obvious that in keeping with the standard pattern of the time, multiple takes were recorded; in addition, versions were recorded with overdubs by Italian language singers such as MINA and English language singers such as Lydia MacDonald. Also, at least in the film "Fumo di Londra," which also has a brilliant Piccioni soundtrack, it turns out that short versions of the title theme were recorded for release as 45 rpm singles. So sure, it's going to become confusing. -----Original Message----- Hey, kids! The husband-bot was kind enough to get me the original pressing of this. I for years have been evermore grateful for the Easy Tempo version...but I like the packaging on this more. Let's just say the eyes have it! A question, though. The original LP has fewer songs on it...and to my somewhat delicate ear, perhaps has different versions of songs on it from the Easy Tempo release? Am I nutz?

Far exceeded my expectations. If I'm understanding the liner notes correctly, Anita did the arrangements, conducted the orchestra and played the Hammond organ on this LP. Can anyone tell me anything about "Con Te Sulla Spiaggia"? Anita's version bears more than a passing resemblance to Lolita Ya Ya. Songs: Spanish Harlem; Sweetie Baby; This Land Is Your Land; Susie; Over The Rainbow; That's Life; Con Te Sulla Spiaggia; Firefly; Mood Indigo; etc. Trombones Unlimited: These Bones Are Made For Walkin' More Now Sound fun with wordless vocals. On Liberty Records. The only name on this record I recognize is producer Dave Pell. Songs: Daydream; Sure Gonna Miss Her; Eso Beso; California Dreamin'; I Will Wait For You; These Boots...; The Phoenix Love Theme; Hurry On (my favorite); The Yo-Yo Puppet Song; etc. Dusty Springfield: Golden Hits >From recent weeks: A butt-load of Chet Atkins: Chet Atkins Picks on the Beatles Guitar Monsters (with Les Paul) Me and Jerry (with Jerry Reed) with a stunning bluegrassy version of MacArthur Park Me and Chet (also with Jerry Reed, this time Reed gets first billing) The Best of Chet Atkins & Friends (with Boots Randolph, Lenny Breau, Arthur Fiedler and The Boston Pops, Dolly Parton, Ray Stevens, Hank Snow, etc.) Frank Sinatra: Sinatra at The Sands (2 LPs) With Count Basie. Orchestra conducted by Quincy Jones. Doesn't get much better than this. Ann-Margaret: Songs from The Swinger and Other Swingin' Songs She's okay, I guess... a little too little-girl breathy for my liking. My favorites on this record are the two instrumental tracks by Marty Paich: Swinger's Holiday and Kelly's Dance. Just wish it was in stereo. Muzak: Stimulus Progression Number One "With this album you can actually experience the concept of stimulus progression. We have programmed six selections on each side for purposes of demonstration. Move the needle of your record player from one selection to the other. Listen a few seconds to each. Feel the change in mood as the stimulation increases from the first selection to the last. The effect is both psychological and physiological: proof that MUZAK is more than music. [...]Unlike ordinary music or so-called background music, MUZAK is a non-entertainment medium, employing rhythm, tempo, instrumentation, etc. to scientifically-determined effects. In work situations, independent studies have documented the effectiveness of MUZAK programs in improving employee attitude, efficiency and productivity. In commercial applications, special MUZAK programs are employed to create environmental conditions conducive to improved customer relations and profits." Despite the scary corporate psychobabble, I like this music (sorry, "non-entertainment medium"). The arrangements are quite lively and interesting (except for Cecilia ? I don't think it benefits much from having honky tonk piano). Really, it's not much different from a lot of the instrumental music I collect. Songs: Tonight I'll Say A Prayer; Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head; Easy Come, Easy Go; Everybody's Talkin'; Jean; Copy Cat; California Girl; Spinning Wheel; Children; Jingle Jangle; Cecelia; New Fangled Preacher Man.

Get one boxed and with little use on the stylus. That is not audiophile and it's not budget. To buy it new sounds expensive and it'll be so so. So if you fancy it, go for it. In the UK we have a shop called Richer Sounds which is heavily discounted but quality hifi. If you had a similar place, walk in, try a few out (take your fave records and see how hey all sound) then buy one.

I've been actively interested in Finnish records for while without actually owning very many. But it can only be a matter of time. Those interested should check out this rather amazing online resource: http://www.yle.fi/aanilevysto/firs2/ Here, 300,000 Finnish releases from throughout the 20th century are catalogued in a searchable database. Perhaps most interesting to me was the fact that you can search by 'Original Title' and uncover fascinating sounding Finnish-language cover versions of popular English-language songs.

The first expression is definitely "paskahousu" but I don't really know what the second one might be. About the records, Irwin Goodman's records are easy to find since his numerous albums were reissued on CD a couple of years ago. The original vinyl pressings are sometimes quite pricy, though. He was hugely popular from the middle 60s to the early/middle 70s as well as in late 80s due to his massive comeback hit "Rentun ruusu". Sisu-a-go-go, on the other hand, is a nice find. I don't remember ever seeing it. If you like it, you might also wish to check Koskis-a-go-go, the Finnish response to Frank Valdor's Wodka-a-go-go. And the woman in "The Man Without a Past" was Annikki T?hti, who was one of the biggest stars in Finland back in the 50s. Just in case you wanted to know.

Well I listened to the whole LP now, and it is... Great (over-used word but hey), Definitely a unique sound, and I "hear" things like Exotic Moog (Martin Denny), Herb Alpert, early 70s rock (not very much). Inventive, relaxing, funny BUT with a dash of Nordic melancholy (of which the Finnish people are the masters). So I decided to share this soon on my Sharity page, I think you will enjoy it. Now and then I plan to offer the neatest LP from every country in the world, I have offered records from Japan, Australia (2 of them), UK (Trumpet a go go), USA mostly (so many records), Sweden (Anna-Lisa Ingemansson), Pakistan (Sohail Rana), Canada and probably some more country and soon Finland Magnus ------------------------------- http://www.bellybongo.com From marco at weirdomusic.com Wed May 12 11:52:33 2004 From: marco at weirdomusic.com (Marco "Kallie" Kalnenek) Date: Wed May 12 11:52:06 2004 Subject: [Exotica] No Webby for Weirdomusic Message-ID: <004701c43849$ea768360$701533d5@CP127068A> As you may know the the winners of the annual Webby Awards were announced today at Webbyawards.com.

I disagree with this advice. The Music Hall turntables are very highly rated. If you can afford a new turntable in midrange price, you can't do better. For used turntables, I wouldn't recommend Audio Technica, and I wouldn't get a Technics unless you are a DJ and are willing to get a top of the line model. For an inexpensive direct drive turntable that plays all three speed I'd suggest a Dual 1218 or 1228 and for a simple belt drive (quieter) that plays just 33 and 45, I'd suggest a Thorens TD 165. They show up on ebay all the time. See ya Steve *#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*# CLASSIC MUSIC FROM ORIGINAL 78s, EXPERTLY TRANSFERRED TO CD!

And having had a Thorens TD 165 for many years I can vouch for its durability and solid construction. It hasn't got the most delicate of tonearms, but I had it paired with a relatively inexpensive (and seemingly indestructible) Stanton cartridge, the mainstay of college radio stations. With all the hassles I've had over the years tracking down belts for turntables (just try to find me a source for a belt for an Ariston Audio RD11s!) direct drive may be a future consideration...

We've got our own strange obsession with this weird and wonderful country and its culture which seems to have one foot in Scandinavian propriety and another in Russian zaniness. How else can you explain Laika & the Cosmonauts, a Finnish surf band, The Leningrad Cowboys, or the shout-out madman known as Paska! On the film front I'd go further and recommend almost any of the Kaurismaki brothers films, though this most recent one has received more attention than most and is easiest to find. It also boast a great soundtrack which is worth searching out. These go-go records provide another intriguing set of examples which I certainly look forward to hearing. Thanks Magnus!

Theres no excuse for that kind of self indulgence, if you ask me. But they must have done a two hour show, and there is something about seeing masters at work, they were effortless, and soooo laid back. The support was some UK funk act and they where sweating and frenzied, but War just got in the groove and smoothed along, in a way thats almost indescribable. There is something about seeing musicians who really know their form, I saw the same thing with the Roots Radics once. And as I say when the material was good, it was exceptional. I don't think they did anything as short as twelve minutes though...

Skip Heller is right: Elvis' Sun Sessions are essential, they ARE Rockabilly. That is the first and last word many feel on rockabilly. But there of course were tremendous "rockabilly" records made post Elvis. But the best stuff he ever made as far as I'm concerned was under Sam Phillips at Sun. And I say that as a total E fan. My first musical obsession at 11 years old; I'm 27 now. Jack Earls is another great Sun artist from the era. Compilations galore and those are good because they give you a chance to hear 15-30 artists at a time and you can pick one you like and explore their work further. The Johnny Burnette Trio (another memphis act) can't be beat (although as with many rockabilly's of the 50's you will hear Elvis copy cat affectations even with them.) The more original and the less of the Elvis copy cat I hear when I listen to Rockabilly of the period the more I tend to like the artist. As far as compilations Ace has done a few good ones particularly one called Rarest Rockabilly and Hillbilly Boogie and Bear Family did an excellent series several years ago called That'll Flat Git It; those are overall very very good places to start. This genre can get quite involved and in depth just like Northern Soul or Girl Group or anything else which seems sort of shallow in its scope on the surface but treasures can be dug up all the time. You can go nuts. For modern acts who play the trad style right I'd suggest Big Sandy & The Fly-Rite Boys to start. Britain's Stargazers were a revivalist act in the 80's and they are also outstanding. Check out Hepcat Records at www.hepcatrecords.com and they'll send you a free catalogue chock full of titles, only drawback is not being able to hear the stuff. Hope this helps! -Tony -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

They?re great however, but a so called jive-band, like The Chevalier Brothers, or Louie Jordan earlier. From that period in Britain trad Rockabilly was done by the Blue Cats, who were obviously leaning on Gene Vincent?s Blue Caps and also on Johnny Burnette?s Rock?n Roll Trio.

Marco From G.R.Reader at bton.ac.uk Mon May 17 04:12:07 2004 From: G.R.Reader at bton.ac.uk (G.R.Reader@bton.ac.uk) Date: Mon May 17 04:12:18 2004 Subject: [Exotica] big city scores Message-ID: My annual trip up to London's west end resulted in the usual kind of bad spend up on vinyl, I did manage to get some to stuff, though. Silver Apples, the first LP is it with the silver sleeve? Nice looking anyway, I really enjoyed the second LP of theirs, so I'm looking forward to this. Bruce Haack "Electric Lucifer II", I blow hot and cold over the first one, but this was recorded 10 years on (1979) and in a nice gatefold sleeve, hard to pass up as I want to hear how he moved on in the meantime. Still waiting to play this, too. Les Reed "Girl on a motorcycle", I've not played but I've heard it already, anyway. At its best nice organ fuelled UK go-go music. Again hard to pass up in a nice gatefold sleeve, I know its been around quite a while, but I've not been bothered before. The Soul Jazz Konk and ESG comps. After the various threads, I had to get 'em, they were pretty cheap, too. Basil Kirchin "State of mind/Charcoal sketches". This is the only one I've really played. One side is "States of mind", music from a short film on Psychiatry for a conference. The other is "Charcoal Sketches" preparatory stuff for Kirchins "Quantum" LP, which I couldn't find. http://www.trunkrecords.com/turntable/charcoal.htm For "States of mind": I've known a number of people that have been through the psychiatric service in this country, and its funny no-one has mentioned free form jazz.. "Charcoal Sketches" I found much more to my taste, something about the birdsong and flutes combining, and some excellent free flowing saxophone, something I don't normally find that appealing. Maybe this is how I would expect Sun Ra to sound just from descriptions, and, in some way I can't fathom, it reminds me of Yes' "Close to the Edge", but I really don't know why, especially as I haven't heard it in 30 years. But I definitely want to track down a copy of "Quantum" now, now that its out of print on vinyl (bloody typical).

If its the one I think it is, I reckon its worth going back for. The first track is just one of the sleaziest things I've heard for ages, I can't remember what its called. There is a verry groovy version of "the sidewinder", "Flowers in the rain" is top fun, too. The whole thing has plenty of overblown raspy trumpet, and reedy organ. Coming on initially like a Herb Alpert knockoff, but really its much better than even that would imply. I see when I got this I described "Thunderball" as ribald, and also one of the tracks sounds like it has a musical saw. There you go, how can you resist a description like that?

It was a French edition and looked quite nice, really (French coverart for this kind of SAP are often a lot cooler than the UK released albums of the same title...) but Thunderball and The Sidewinder were on it so we're talking about the same rekkid here... It will probably still be there by Thursday when I go back - IF it is I'll probably be able to get it for 1 or 2 Euro at the most. I _never_ pay more than 3 Euro per rekkid at the flea...

Almost everybody had better sleeves, just look at the UK version of Ronnie Aldritches Phase 4 LP with "Ride my see saw" that was discussed recently. Still I'm sure Ronnie's mum liked having a picture of him more than some nude girl with oil projections on her. > It will probably still be there by Thursday when I go back - > IF it is I'll > probably be able to get it for 1 or 2 Euro at the most.

Nice exotica title - you should get it ;-) It was because I'd heard of that record I had his name floating around in my mind. It was a surprise as I was expecting percussion rather than exploitation stuff, but a nice one, and one thats grown on me more than a percussion LP probably would have.

He was 76. Keiko Jones, who was married to the drummer for 38 years and also served as his business manager, said Jones had been in and out of hospital for five months before passing away on Tuesday at Englewood Hospital in New Jersey. "He was fighting," she said, adding that he played his last show with his five-piece jazz group at Yoshi's jazz club in Oakland, California, last month while drawing oxygen from a tank he had with him on stage. Known for his explosive drumming style, Jones was a fixture in Coltrane's influential quintet from 1960-66. A pioneer of greater improvisation among jazz percussionists, he was viewed by some jazz critics as the best drummer in the world. "His main achievement was the creation of what might be called a circle of sound, a continuum in which no beat of the bar was necessarily indicated by any specific accent, yet the overall feeling became a tremendously dynamic and rhythmically important part of the whole group," the Encyclopedia of Jazz wrote about Jones. Born in 1927 in Pontiac, Michigan, Jones was the youngest of 10 children. His father was a lumber inspector for General Motors, a Baptist deacon and a church choir singer. Jones was one of three jazz players among his siblings. His brother Hank is still active as a jazz pianist and brother Thad, who died in 1986, was a successful trumpet and fluegelhorn player, arranger and band leader. After being discharged from the military in 1949, Jones embarked on a long career as a professional drummer, playing with luminaries of jazz from Miles Davis to Milt Jackson in a career that led to over 500 recordings. A trip to New York to audition for the new Benny Goodman Band ended disastrously but led to a slot in Charlie Mingus' band. Joining Coltrane in 1960 became his most celebrated alliance, leading to recordings like, "A Love Supreme" and "Coltrane 'Live' at the Village Vanguard." "If there is anything like perfect harmony in a human relationship that was as close as you can come," Jones once said of his musical relationship with Coltrane. "It was one of the happiest period of my life," he said. "It was like a young boy going to the circus and stopping at the stand selling cotton candy and ice cream cones. It was that kind of feeling."

Message-ID: <3.0.5.32.20040520130053.00f7cc80@pophost.plex.nl> >From Pitchfork News - Ryan Schreiber reports Brian Wilson Re-Records Smile for Fall Release Recent acid trips only result in nightmarish visions of Kokomo According to his official website, wily old Beach Boys frontman Brian Wilson is preparing to finally issue his legendary Smile album nearly four decades after it was originally scheduled to hit stores. There's just one catch: It's an all-new recording! Surprise, Beach Boys fans! You all are suckers, who suck. Yes, defying reports in late February that Wilson would compile the original tapes from the Beach Boys' well-documented 1966 and 1967 sessions into a cohesive, definitive LP version at last, Wilson's pulled the old switcharoo and decided instead to re-record all of the material. Smile has been something of a fantasy for Beach Boys fans since its recording, with countless bootlegs in circulation, speculated tracklists, and not a few books published recounting its legacy. Over the years, it has often been rumored that Wilson would finally issue a completed version, but as release dates came and went, so did hope that the album would ever exist as anything but a jumbled series of studio outtakes. Yet, like the current Pixies reunion that most imagined would never happen, Wilson is now promising the record its day in the sun-- just not in the way he first intended to present it. Wilson pored over the vaulted Smile tapes with his original collaborator Van Dyke Parks last November in preparation for the re-recording, which inspired the two to create a few scraps of new material with which Wilson could tie the songs together on tour. After premiering the final piece at London's Royal Festival Fall last February, Wilson entered Los Angeles' Sunset Sound studio, where he remains to this day, toiling away to finish the record in time for its newly scheduled September 28th release via Nonesuch Records. Here's hoping these sessions go better than the last. Wilson has also scheduled another bunch of Smile performances for Europe this summer, to take place after he completes his new sessions. The dates kick off July 13th at The Hague in Holland, and run through early August, when the tour comes to an end at Sweden's The Cirkus. In there somewhere, he's got four goddamn nights planned again for the Royal Festival Hall in London, which should promptly sell out. A U.S. tour is rumored to be announced near Smile's release, but at press time, nothing has been confirmed. Dates: 07-13 The Hague, Holland - Congresscentre 07-16 St. Austell, England - Eden Project 07-17 Oxford, England - Apollo Theatre 07-19 Portsmouth, England - Guildhall 07-20 Ipswitch, England - Regent Theatre 07-22 Manchester, England - Apollo Theatre 07-24 London, England - Royal Festival Hall 07-25 London, England - Royal Festival Hall 07-27 London, England - Royal Festival Hall 07-28 London, England - Royal Festival Hall 08-02 Festen, Belgium - Lorkerse 08-03 Bonn, Germany - Museumsmeile 08-06 Oslo, Norway - The Concert House 08-07 Stockholm, Sweden - The Cirkus More at http://www.brianwilson.com/news/ plus: ALBUM CREDITS AND LINER NOTES FOR BRIAN WILSON'S NEW ALBUM "GETTIN' IN OVER MY HEAD" plus: Additionally, Wilson, along with the late composer/conductor/arranger Henry Mancini, and violinist Sarah Chang will be the 2004 Hollywood Bowl Hall of Fame inductees. The opening night concert on Friday, June 25 will feature performances by Wilson and Chang, special appearances by Music Matters spokesperson Josh Groban, Andy Williams, Monica Mancini, and Wilson Phillips, as well as other surprise guests.

The only show in Germany is in Bonn! When Bonn still was the capital of Germany there was this political tv program called Report From Bonn (Bericht aus Bonn). When Berlin became the capital again, comedians made jokes what Bericht aus Bonn would be like if it still existed, like covering firestation anniversaries and such. Bonn is near Cologne, which is a media town, but not really more than Hamburg, Berlin or Munich. Bonn itself is pretty much a small town in the country, with a number of administrative buildings and officials who remember bigger times. They probably have an army worth of civil servants to get events like Brian Wilson performing Smile in their town.

But no, it just meant everybody gets new stuff and throws out the old) even charity shops are charging a fiver a go for a record. Missing the point guys. But I'm only saying what people on this list have said about their town since I've been here. But it really is awful here. Anyway what struck me about that message was the 6 o'clock thrifting. I was walking to work before 8 (I tend to start at 8 recently) and passed a charity shop in Capel St. (Peter will know) and there were all these Star Trek videos in the window. I stopped and rang up a mate who is into that kind of stuff and while I was there the guy came out from inside wanting to know did I want anything. So anyway I bought 30 Star Trek videos for ?50 at about 7.45 one morning. Just the early morning thrifting experience. Which was the best I've had in ages here. Damn wealth and culture-defining consumerism. Living in the world's most globalised economy has some really shitty elements. Please forgive my rampant digressing.

A month ago they had a city-wide yard sale and I found some sweet Arthur Lyman LPs in mint shape (Polynesia being the best) -- the first I've ever found up here (although Martin Denny seems ubiquitous) -- and Hoko Abadia's 10 Nights in Harem. In general though you find lps in the odd junk shop on odd occasions. My best find of late wasn't a find at all, but a gift from a friend who had me digitize a bunch of lps for a new restaurant. A Peruvian organ group from something like 1965 called Los Catedraticos, Exitos Exclusivamenta -- absolutely groovy and highly recommended with awesome sax lines and moody vocals.

What would be cool is a "Smile Construction Set" with raw tracks and some editing software so you could put together your own version of Smile like the bootleggers have been doing for years. It seems to me like everyone I know who is hip to Smile has their own ideas about what the album should be and releasing a re-recorded version won't put rest to speculation as to what could have been had it been finished in '67. _________________________________________________________________ Watch LIVE baseball games on your computer with MLB.TV, included with MSN Premium! http://join.msn.click-url.com/go/onm00200439ave/direct/01/ From lenkei at echonyc.com Thu May 20 14:26:48 2004 From: lenkei at echonyc.com (Bruce Lenkei) Date: Thu May 20 14:26:56 2004 Subject: [Exotica] Smile!

Paco (whose first 2 cds were released on my own label Kutmusic and can be still heard on www.emusic.com ) is apparently moving even more into acid jazz and related styles; lately he has been working with several new contributors and has also produced some darker electronic tracks... but these might be probably used later for a side project since he will be concentrating on the acid jazz thing with Paolo. At this stage I cannot announce any more details about the project... I have heard some exciting music, and they also have Stefania Di Pierro (vocalist for Fez Combo and Nicola Conte) on some tracks. more info as soon as possible! regards, Nicola DjB :) From jdmack02 at comcast.net Thu May 20 18:44:28 2004 From: jdmack02 at comcast.net (J.D.

Message-ID: Damn - I scored MASSIVELY today and yesterday... Two days off and see what it does ;) Yesterday I did two fleas: The Stereo Percussion Orchestra : Nightclub Vol. 2 : MFP Loungy percussion sounds... Being on MFP it's pretty damn sure this is a reissue of another title and name - but which??? Time to gumshoe the net... The Discothèque Sound : Chip Chip : MFP Another one... Moog this time - pop combo backed by moog... Chip Chip is better known as Dance Des Canards - a staple of marriageparties over here... Hey - who's gonna get married again??? ;) George Cates : Hitparade Instrumental : Vogue The one I went back for ;) It's a German release, not French... Jack Ary : Typiquement... : Mode Yes! Has Les Tomates on it... "Mange des tomates, mon amour... Mange de tomates tous les jours...!" Far out French cha cha LP... Ennio Morricon : Le Serpent : RCA Oh yeah - been after this for a WHILE... Much more avant than I expected. The guy gets some interesting sounds out his instruments, that's for sure... V/A : Dance With Me : Philips compilation with 2 Pete Rugolo cuts. Ennio Morricone : Un Film Una Musica : RCA Italian 2LP compilation - a fine selection of tracks from his Westerns, thrillers and exploitations - The inside pic of this gatefold has a huge pic of a solemn Ennio. This comes with an LP sized booklet in italian. For every track (movie) on the records info about the film, stills, posterart etc. Very cool! Sadi's New Big Show Band : Swing A Little : Palette This cat is Belgian and this is the first LP I find of his. He's quite the percussionist and made a couple of albums - one is very much sought after... This has pretty straightforward swing on it but on a couple of cuts he's scatting the record to bits! Cool... Kid Creole And The Coconuts : I Too, Have Seen The Woods : ZE got this for my baby Andre Brasseur : Multi Sound Organ : Palette Second Brasseur (all the early ones are great). Also found that hyper rare one with Ali on it - first time I see this and there's no record inside... I give the guy the evil eye... "This the way you treat records??" What a mess! Earl Grant : The Best Of... : Brunswick Somebody recommended a Grant LP and I'm not sure if this is the one. It has The Breeze And I on it so I was willing to give it a shot... Major scores today too... Leroy Holmes : Cinema '69 : United Artists Orchestral not your usual theme-selection... Kid Creole & The Coconuts : Fresh Fruit In Foreign Places : ZE The Four Freshmen : 4 Freshmen and 5 Trombones : Capitol Pete Rugolo arranged this one... The Clebanoff Strings & Percussion : Exciting Sounds : Mercury Isn't this one of the must have Clebanoff albums? Sure looks like it... They do Quiet Village and Turkish Harem Dance... The Groovy Soul Orchestra Vol. 2 : Movin' And Groovin' : Groove No other information but the above, a catalogue number and 12 tracktitles. Soul jazz orchestra. Is this a library album? It really does groove but needs further investigation... Les Brown : New Horizons : Daybreak Brown ("And The Super Sounds Of Renown") with the Jack Halloran Singers bring a cool selection of songs - Wave, Michelle, I Feel The Earth Move... Pretty Now Soundish in places. Nelson Riddle : Hey... Let Yourself Go! : Capitol Late 50's Riddle is never to be missed! I love this guy!! Ron Goodwin & His Orchestra : Play Burt Bacharach : Studio 2 Nice arrangements on first quick listen... Kay Starr : Movin' : Capitol Starr swings with the Van Alexander Orchestra. Nice one for those into female vocals... The Clebanoff Strings : Strings Afire : Mercury Now THIS is a definite must-have Clebanoff LP! Claude Denjean : Moog! : Phase 4 Found TWO copies today! Cheap!! Stan Kenton : Today : Phase 4 Double live LP recorded in '73. Stan had the touch - very swinging, very percussive with the occasional crime-mood... Love that sound... Enogh Light And The Light Brigade : Vibrations : Command Never seen this before. Made me happy... Joe Harnell : Moving On!! : Motown Harnell on Motown, wow! Brings you a couple of soul standards - very orchestral with crisp percussion. Nice!! Chaquitto : Latin Colours : Philips I have another Chaquitto LP somewhere which I enjoyed a lot. Some of the cuts are quite groovy so I'm looking forward to hearing this... Gordon Jenkins : Complete Manhattan Tower : Capitol Yes! Ford's current BHDO selection!! Bert Kaempfert : A Man Could Get Killed OST : Brunswick Bert is my man and I've been after this LP for like forever! Alan Tew Orchestra : This Is My Way : Phase 4 Never seen this one before and looking forward to hearing this. Looks very Now... John Barry : Theme From The Persuaders : CBS Morton Gould & His Orchestra : Jungle Drums : RCA OK so I've heard this is an 'exotica' album that has very little exotica on it and no jungle drums whatsoever (except the song) but hey - would you pass up this one if you saw it cheap? Would you?? The Cascading Voices Of The Hugo & Luigi Chorus : Let's Fall In Love : RCA this could be totally great - I caught something of worldless vocals in the liner notes... But I'll have to verify first... Soooo...

Message-ID: <052220040509.29334.40AEE06D000B9D74000072962200761438090D9C0A030E06@comcast.net> J.D. asked "Are there any Usenet groups for posting mp3's of Exotica or other unusual music? If so, then I'd be happy to upload a few things." There is plenty of exotica/unusual stuff on usenet but it requires patience and persistence to find, download and store the deluge. The most commonly available groups and probably the best for uploading to are in the alt.binaries.sounds.mp3. heirarchy : mp3.1950s, 1960s, 1970s and so on. In just the last month the entire Ultra lounge series has been posted TWICE in the 50s and 60s groups (including the Baxter oop CD), as well as Astro Sounds, Attileo Mineo, Speedy west/Jimmy Bryant, Las Vegas Grind, everything Dean Martin ever sang, Nervous Norvous, twofers by Billy May and Percy Faith, Stanley Black and even the new Patience and Prudence CD collection. Not to mention dozens of doo wop, rockabilly, psych, pop and soul CD's. The mp3.lounge group is mostly downtempo, acid jazz, Buddha Bar & similar comps by the likes of Theivery Corporation. The abs.mp3.soundtracks group has Morricone, Barry, Badalamenti, Easy Tempo and Mancini buried among the endless John Williams and Star Trek reposts. Jazz, impossible to keep up, Shirley Scott and the Soulful Saxes (WOW), Chico Hamilton plays songs from South Pacific, Jacques Brel, its endless. Moving on the the multimedia area, there are soundies posted regularly to alt.binaries.multimedia.vintage-film and you never know what will turn up in alt.binaries.mpeg.video.music - I found a battle of the bands between Spike jones and Perez Prado, which Spike finally won by lobbing a hand grenade into the City Slickers. Usenet is nice because there is only one upload, so it's up to the leecher to get a good ISP with blazing speed and no caps on downloads (data transfer). Problem is more and more ISP's (especially cable) are eliminating or limiting free newsgroup access. But for the fortunate ones like me (5 mbps download, 330 GB in the last 3 weeks), it is a hell of a lot easier than thrifting. Anyway, I thrifted for 8 years and and have no more room for LPs, but now find myself buying spindles of 100 DVD+Rs for data storage and have 5 extra hard drives connected via USB. Honestly, its easier to download a Cd from usenet than to find the copy I bought a few years ago and is somewhere in my house or garage. Before this post becomes a digest unto itself, I must say that NOTHING on usenet shows the love and taste as the very special music given to us all by ford, magnus, astroboy (yay peanuts), milwaukee john, otis and anyone else I've missed. Someday if i ever fix my turntable you may hear Yvette Mimieux reading Beaudelaire backed by Ali Akbar Khan. BTW, someone put samples of "Bill and Coo" up on abm.vintage-film yesterday, and there's some Amos 'n Andy Tv shows too.

If I were less thick-skinned I'd be provoked to take offense at this declaration. I've been a regular poster in the various binaries groups for 5 or 6 years now, posting mainly to the 78rpm group, but also sharing some of my rare LPs in the 1950s group, as well as rare radio soundchecks to the 1960s group (my Derek Taylor soundchecks, recorded by my wife on reel-to-reel in 1967 seemed to go over quite well). Anyway, I hope that my "love and taste" is reflected in the choices I make as well as the work I put into this stuff. I don't need backslaps and attaboys ... but I assure you that I love the music just as much as the folks who run websites. Really! Jim Stephenson (aka "Hillbillywolf" ... yeah, it's dumb ...)

The other was six sharp-looking guys in striped shirts called He-6. Both records have Korean songs on side 1 and covers of western pop songs on side 2.

Another angle of his seems to have been producing radio dramas, such as a version of "Sunset Boulevard" with Gloria Swanson which also included William Holden; and novelty Old Time Radio nostalgia records like one with contemporary accounts of the Hindenburg explosion. Garabedian's "Players" were the musicians whom he seems to have used on every Mark 56 production possible. I can't find any web records of who(m) the actual musicians were, which would be consistent with a record label that intended to keep costs down - using D.L.

There was a record show here in Greensboro, NC yesterday (same folks are holding one in Raleigh today, if anyone on the list lives that way) As dealers go, there were a number of ol' standbys with neat stuff buying and selling, a few out-of-towners with WAY overpriced low grade Beatles etc. (how do these guys stay in business?) BUT there were several dealers selling their father's/uncle's/grandfather's collections who had lots of low priced goodies in great shape! One guy in particular was selling his father's collection at half whatever the sticker price was (mostly a dollar a pop, which translated to 50 cents each) Though his boxes had already been picked through, I found a nice copy of Herb Alpert's 9th (which was on my ever beautiful future wife's want list) Sammy Davis 'I Gotta Be Me' (On the cover Sammy's wearing this ultra-groovy yellow paisley jacket and love beads) The Ames Bros/Esquivel 'Hello Amigos', 'Around India with Lata' (Mangeshkar), a handful of 70s pop or funk gems (The 70s boxes were among the most picked through by the time I got there but I still found Isley Bros 3+3, Abba singing in Spanish, Hudson Bros) and a copy of Vincent Bell's 'Pop Goes the Electric Sitar' still in the shrink wrap, priced $3 (which meant it was a buck fifty) I was playing it conservative, so as not to weigh myself down when I really need to lighten my load in anticipation of the move to Brighton. All in all a decent show for the esoterica/exotica minded record hound.

IIRC the single is very early sixties if not fifties, swinging pop rock and roll, so how they come to rebrand it as Groovy Soul is a bit beyond me. I'm at work so I don't know who the songwriter is, I think the song ("Question") was also a hit in the hUS for someone better known, can't remember who, possibly a Country and Western artist. Which would imply its unlikely top be a library record. Your LP does sound like quite a mixed bag.

Definitely trying to score with the young crowd (as many of those Now Sound titles) but it's only halfway succesful... Orchestral go-go which sounds like the symphonic Metallica of its day... Winchester Cathedral Detroit City - stings (pizzicato and otherwise) with boss guitar Shuffling Jam - heavy on cello Strangers In The Night - very straightforward Yeh-Yeh - this works rather well - soulful strings against piano and solid horn section... These Boots Are Made For Walking - this alone is worth the price of admission. Stomping version with demented vocals. Sounds like Animal of the Muppets... Alfie - harpsichord and string heavy I'm A Believer - Now and doing a tour of the orchestra as each section takes a lead. Spanish Flea - beat combo... like the above. Stop and start finish. This Is My Song - better skip this... cello solo makes me wanto cry ); Green, Green Grass Of Home - trumpet solo renders this Tijuana. Strings are too much... Penny Lane - sounds like a Now march but wait! the last bit has a sitar chiming in! This is my first Tew so I can't compare. In terms of Now however I find this a tad too heavy on trad orchestra - the strings are often too much and the horns are too close to 9th symph bombast... So two tracks are really cool and the rest is half assed and unsuccesful Now. I'm not sure if I should bother with his other albums - which are the titles you like? May have to limit myself to those. His records aren't very common over here anyway...

For an extra ladle of cheese the LP "Latin Style: the Alan Tew Sound plays the hits of Tom Springfield" is a must, the intro to "Georgie girl" is probably Harry Stoneham's finest moment as an organist, the track itself is about as un folky as you can get, very brash and brassy, the rest of the LP has its moments too, "The Troubleshooters" probably being the best of the rest, driving organ chords and some nice guitar work from Laurie Steel. The other one I have that I really like is the "Western themes" LP, its another full orchestra recording, but the slush is kept at bay by some nice, and unlikely arranging, "The Virginian" is a twangfest, and one of the tracks, "Deadwood Stage" is done as a rolling Fats Domino style boogie. The Elvis tribute has "Suspicion" thats worth hearing, but is bogged down in Radio two style chorus work. Thats not exhaustive, by any stretch. I think theres an Abba covers LP, and theres a swing LP, too. "Rosie" I would definitely give a miss, apart from perhaps "The ballad of Bonnie and Clyde", and thats a pretty vague perhaps, too. I did a comp of Alan Tew for someone, about a year ago, but didn't keep a copy.

This title enjoyed much success on PC, I gather, but the PS2 port went overlooked. A shame, really, as its fun factor approaches that of the legendary Goldeneye. At any rate, the game is set in the late 60's, and you play as Cate Archer, jumpsuited British secret agent. The music throughout the game is provided by a group of human musicians playing real instruments. Lots of flute -- not your typical synth game soundtrack. Evidence of the game designers' good taste can be seen in this bit of dialog between two German warehouse guards: Guard 1: So what kind of music do you like? Guard 2: Exotica mostly. Les Baxter, Sondi Sodsai -- that sort of thing. --cm From basichip at comcast.net Mon May 24 19:57:37 2004 From: basichip at comcast.net (basichip) Date: Mon May 24 19:58:29 2004 Subject: [Exotica] new albums at BHDO Message-ID: <000701c441fb$a7f710c0$795e0518@attbi.com> Hi All - This week at Basic Hip... THE ALBUM OF THE WEEK The Wide, Weird, World of Shorty Petterstein Shorty Petterstein World Pacific Records WPM-412 Mono (1958) Nothing to write up on this one, it speaks for itself. Rare and incredibly strange. Brace yourself for a one-of-a-kind listening experience. As you listen - preferably in a darkened room with headphones and no distractions - read the album's liner notes. All MP3 tags have a typo - Shorty's name is spelled wrong but I'm going to fight the urge to fix them and reload and just let you know. If little things like this bother you, you can make the corrections. ;) SPACE AGE POP MUSIC FEATURED ALBUM Hang 'Em High Hugo Montenegro featuring the whistling artistry of Muzzy Marcellino RCA Victor LSP-4022 Stereo (1968) Hugo's "young sound" follow-up to The Good, The Bad and The Ugly with chorus and Muzzy's whistling solos on several tracks.

I know what they mean but I like it because it's so different to the Osaka ofdepartment stores and expensive consumer items. Got off at Shinimamiya station and walked thru the shop arcades to a recycle/junk shop i'd seen previously but not had time then to look at anything ... it was open so i went in and started to work my way thru the mountains of records ... the shop's owner (about 70 or 80) wasso friendly, letting me listen to records on a really nice system while i was looking thru them ... he was quite chatty ... then he asked me if i drank sake ... i thought he was going to get me pissed (drunk, not angry) while i looked thru the records so i'd buymore ... turns out he wanted to go drinking with him later in the evening & i *think* he wanted to take me to the local place where singers perform enka (Japanese popular torch song, in the "traditional" style) ... i would love to have gone but i was feeling really tired and i would have had to hung around for another couple of hours ... certainly a "Take the day off work" situation ... i'll definitely go back and make himtake me next time ... that day was not the day ... i spent the best part of an hour looking but only bought 2 records: "Strangers in the Night" - Bud Shank (which is OK but has the worst cover i've ever seen ... it actually makes me feel ill) and"The 3 Suns in Japan" (which is excellent - I was kinda thrilled to find that). Iwould have picked out more but the owner was being a bit coy about the prices. But when it came time to pay, he asked if 500 yen for the two was ok. I said it was fine by me. That's about 3 uk poundsor maybe 5 dollars, still pretty cheap for Japan. Often the first asking price is 500 for 1 album. So I gave him the 500 yen. Hewinked at me and gave me 100 yen "change". That really surprised me. He was so friendly!! I'll go back and look thru the hundreds of 7" rekkids sometime. Then I went and ate takoyaki (fried octopus dumplings), an Osaka specialty good for filling your stomach when hungry. -- Your man in Japan Sem Sinatra Sem Sinatra's Gathering Dust: http://semsinatra.tripod.com/semsinatrasgatheringdust/index.html Sem Sinatra sets the controls for the heart of the sun http://www.eat78rpm.co.uk/semsinatra/ Sem Sinatra's Solar System of Sound http://www.retrolicious.com/exl/semsinatra/ From G.R.Reader at bton.ac.uk Tue May 25 01:53:39 2004 From: G.R.Reader at bton.ac.uk (G.R.Reader@bton.ac.uk) Date: Tue May 25 01:53:44 2004 Subject: [Exotica] new albums at BHDO Message-ID: Blimey, an album on BHDO that I have, is this rare then?

It was released in 1972 by Victor Music Industries as JVC 4 Channel LP (!?). To say the least, its pretty weird, music and recording wise. I record from Technics 1200 with Ortofon pick-ups through some cheap mixer and far too expensive cable into my computer. When I listen to the files I recorded from this LP with my headphones, I have the feeling there's something wrong (Very distant sounding guitars, ...), and I suspect some kind of "incompatibility" (Excuse me, but I'm a computer guy) with the 4 channel recording and my pick-ups or my other equipment. It doesn't annoy me too much, and even less when I listen it through my loudspeakers, where it's barely noticeable, but still I'd like to get rid of it. Could it be that I need some kind of special equipment to record this LP properly or is the problem I'm reporting only an illusion? (It's very trippy music...) In case someone is interested in the LP, after recording it successfully I'll share it on the list =) (I just got 2 new nice LPs: Rosengarden & Krause "Hollywood Sound Stage - Percussion and Sound" on Decca and Louie Ramirez "Ali Baba" on Fania, just in case you don't already have it in your collection, I am willing to record and upload these too.) Oooh this became long, sorry. My english sucks today (like everyday).

(It's very >trippy music...) > Here's two takes on what you're noticing. First off, these records are 100% compatable with 2 channel stereo playback but obviously they are mixed in a manner to sound best when decoded quadraphonically. A good example is Enoch Light's "Spaced Out." That record always sounded weird in stereo to me, but when I got the proper quadraphonic equipment, it made a lot more sence. The second thing is the JVC system for 4 channel sound (there were three different systems) uses a technique similar to the way FM stereo broadcasts work to get the rear channel information. There is an ultra high (45kHz) carrier frequency recorded on the disc which, while being way beyond the range of human hearing, could possible tamper with how you are hearing the music or how your stereo is playing it back. That's more of a swing in the dark kinda guess, but there it is. One other thing, if you're looking to playback this disc in all it's quad glory, you'll need two things. First, you'll need a CD-4 demodulator. That's the system JVC developed and is the ONLY thing that will decode the record you have properly. You'll also need a special stylys that can track that ultra-high frequency signal properly. Of course, you'll also need an extra rear channel amp and two extra speakers. And a lot of patience. The CD-4 system is tricky to set up. Or...you could go a much easier route and have someone with proper gear transfer the record to a DTS encoded CD that will play back quadraphonically in a home theater system. Here's a link to a guy in Texas who has transfered some stuff for me, he does a great job and is reasonable with the price. http://hometown.aol.com/matrixquad/ Maybe this is more than you wanted to know, but that's what I'm here for.

It's daiily which means (ahum) it's there every single day of the year!! Rain or shine - every day. I mostly go like twice a week at 7am spent a couple of hours before going to work. There's new stuff every time I go. Sometimes it's good, sometimes not. Today was good: Bert Kaempfert : A Swingin' Safari : Polydor the one Kaempfert I was still looking for! I had plenty of choice from different copies in the same lot and chose a nice NM one. Bert at his greatest! Sesame Street : Book and Record : Columbia English kid records aren't around too much so when I find something that looks playable I mostly grab it. Bobby Bean Sound & Singers : Nabucco : MFP This is a copy I picked up for someone else. I can't remember much of this except there's a version of Tabou and it's one of those strange electric guitars w/ moogs do birdcalls renditions. Funny - I was planning on playing that tune on my show this weekend! Peter Laine & The Nana's : Music For Lovers : Disco Why on earth would someone pick this up? It has a soft-focus coverpic of a plain woman in outmoded 1900 gear smiling at the camera. The name (Nana = bimbo in French), typeface - EVERYTHING - screams 'WRONG! WRONG!! WRONG!!!". No info on the backcover except the address of a (shady no doubt) Brussels label, tracktitles and credits. A couple of these mention G. Delo aka Guy Delo aka Jean Delo of Chocolat's fame and who was involved with a lot of groovy Belgian 70's gogo sounds (Les Chacs, The Pink Panther Disco album, etc...) THIS RECORD IS THE SHIT!!! About half the titles (there's 10 total) are BAAAD with groovy organ, fuzz guitar and wordless vocals scatting like MAD... Keep Movin' is a beastly opener, Oumbala Oumbalo sounds like it came off James Last's Voodoo Party, New Mexico, Funny and Mongo are all top notch gogo!! The lesser tracks are cheesy but nothing terrible. Overall a revelation! How come I picked up this album, huh? Cause I KNEW without knowing I knew - dig ;))) Ah - I love those early morning digs...

I'm going to hazard a guess. "Comin Home Baby"? Great record. If I were a DJ, I would play this one. In fact, when I did DJ that one time, I think I went from Mel's version of "Right Now" to Claus Ogerman's instrumental version. And the title song is great too. I have also heard that Mel hated this record. And I don't think it's typical of ANY period of Mel. And I attribute its atypicality to Claus Ogerman. Even if you stripped off the vocals, it would be a groovy record. Mel did other sort of "groovy" records where he recorded rock songs like Sunshine Superman but they're sort of groovy cheese. Whereas I think Comin Home Baby is genuinely groovy. It's funny because he has another record of around the same period which is called "Right Now" but doesn't actually have the song "Right now" on it. But he does another version of Coming home baby on it. Anyway the "Right Now" record is a bit more typical of Mel of that period. On the other hand, given that he covered tunes like "Homeward Bound" and "Red Rubber Ball", I"m sure Mel hated every minute of it. I have no idea why he hated the Comin Home record though. Too bad. He should have been more ashamed of other things he did instead.

Turning some of those ideas on their head is this intriguing voyage (sponsored and documented in part by the Honolulu Advertiser) to the sometimes-neglected northwestern Hawaiian Islands on the voyaging canoe Hokule'a. On the website, visitors can learn about the crew of the Hokule'a, view a Flash-enabled map of their progress and route, and learn about their educational mission for the trip. The site also features some nice material on the formation of the oldest Hawaiian islands, including a series of graphics that document the creation and transformation of these land forms. Finally, Honolulu Advertiser staff writer Jan TenBruggencate is providing a daily journal and a question and answer section for the website for the consideration of visitors to the site.

If you like books like Shawn Levy's Rat Pack Confidential (previously recommended on this list), you'll like this one. Although, ostensibly this is a biography of Paul "Skinny" D'Amato and his 500 Club, it is also about the history of Atlantic City and the Rat Pack. There is quite a bit about Sinatra's Rat Pack from an Atlantic City prospective. Since D'Amato also managed the Cal-Neva Lodge in Tahoe when Sinatra owned it, there is quite a lot about the Kennedys, Marilyn Monroe, Joe DiMaggio and the Mob. D'Amato was also the man who paired Martin & Lewis. Van Meter covers a lot of ground in less than 300 pages, but he weaves everything together beautifully. Grab a copy of this book for the beach this summer. You'll enjoy it.

First of all, there's no reason to mount a defense for the first two Def Leppard albums--they're both solid NWOBHM contemporaries of Iron Maiden Saxon, etc. "High & Dry" and "Let It Go" from the second album are in particular kickass pot-and-beer cardeck metal classics. As for Hotel California, I'll repeat what I said on a private digging list, I like to pick up old rock LPs on the cheap in search of decent non-radio songs, and though I'm not an Eagles "fan" I do enjoy the early Glenn Frey acoustic ballads in an AM Gold kind of way, but Henley can eat a box of dicks for all I care.

First I hit a stand with a box of stainy germany classical, volksmusik and a number of interesting looking records, plus numerous, obligatory James Last albums. The box was marked 50 cent each. I bought these from it, all very good in stereo: ? V.A. Hifi-stereo-festival - Happy Dancing, Polydor 2418 064 gatefold James Last: Mademoiselle Ninette G?nter Kallmann Chor: Sugar, Sugar (german accents) Peter Thomas: This Guy?s In Love With You (good! flute, harp, hammond, mid tempo) Alfred Hause: Carnavalito (good!) Max Greger: Red River Valley Shuffle Kai Warner: Das sch?ne M?dchen von Seite 1 and Cecilia Roberto Delgado: El Condor Pasa, The Frank Barber Percussion: Mendocino (kind of an exotica-now sound hybrid due to the use of percussion including the vibraphon, theremin fx!) Otto Bredl und Jiggs Wigham: Help Yourself Marek & Vacek: Sounds Of Joy Fritz Schulz-Reichel: Ol? Man River (B?nter Noris-type piano lead, with godd Zacharias-type strings and a Ladi Geisler a la carte-type rhythm section ? nice). The artwork of this might make one overlook the record since it looks so much like another James Last nonstop party record. ? Paul Mauriat ? A Taste of Mauriat, Philips 88218 (also on the front sleeve: the sound of today for tonight, Love Is Blue) This only my second Mauriat album, it?s abit generic, but has some nice harpsichord, and Mauriat finds extra strings lines I like. selections are: Love Is Blue, A Taste Of Honey, Michelle, Capri C?Est Fini, Little Drummer Boy, Il Silenzio, My Love, N?avoue Jamais, Long Live Love, Merci Ch?rie, I Know A Place, Girl (harpsicord verses and fuzzguitar middle eight!). Two beatles tracks, two Tony Hatch and two easy rendition of french sixities pop, so I hink this can?t be his worst record. ? V.A. Traumreise, MFP 5623 Spanish Harlem - Hugo Strasser: total now-sound version Pata-Pata - Formula 7: great latin percussion intro! Swanee - G?nter Noris By The Time I get To Phoenix - Leo Acosta and his Orchestra: does not reach the Brandenburg version Raindrops Keep Fallin? On My Head - Al de Lory: very ?elevator? Hawaii Tattoo - Webley Edwards Oh Happy Day - Helmut Zacharias mit Chor und Orchester: totally different from Qunicy Jones? version ? GREAT! Ganz Paris tr?umt von der Liebe - Hugo Strasser: dance contest sound Everybody?s Talkin? - Al de Lory: a tune with a great string section like that can?t loose, it?s generic - but anyway. Mrs. Robinson - Billy Vaughn And His Orchestra: Fast, dual sax version with everybody getting a break: Jazz guitar with whistle answering and a nice e-piano. Airport Love Theme - George Wright And His Orchestra: Hammond lead, open, spacey, the guitar even reminds me of Vinnie Bell, pretty sure its him. At the end there?s waterdrop effects on the piano. Almost otherwordly. Danke Sch?n - Ray Anthony ? Star Parade Extra Ausgabe, Polydor 109 596 This is mixed bag with lots of Schlager/Pop tracks (Roy Black, Karel Gott, Barry Ryan, Wencke Myhre, Rita Pavone - great! for the Kaempfert-bass gone surfguitar backing, Peter Alexander and Freddy) The now sound in between this is: I Love Paris - Kai Warner (James Lasts brother going for sound between Kaempfert and Last, they were so big it looked like a good marketing tactic!) A Man And A Woman - Max Greger: wordless vocals (suprise, surprise ;-), but it works good with his soft sax-sound Good Morning Starshine - G?nter Kallmann-Chor: german accents again - that never occured to me as bad (?) as here Wenn s?? das Mondlicht auf den H?geln schl?ft (Finale) - James Last: seems to be one of his more ambitous arrangements, very easy, but not the typical Last Aloha-Ohe - Roberto Delgado: Not Nowsound at all In the double gatefold sleeve is part of the Polydor catalogue of the day and LPs were DM 19, while compact cassette tapes DM 21, They changed that later on, I remember in the late seventies casstee tapes were cheaper than vinyl. They were making prices to fit the market in those days! ? Das Klingende Schlageralbum 1968, SR International 78 818 I mentioned to Mariana that it has got France Gall?s ?Der Computer Nr 3? on it, and wanted to put it back, she said ?They are only 50 cent!? And so I got it. It aslo has got Sandie Shaw german version of those Were The Days, Honey by Bobby Goldsboro ( Icould use this to see if I still break into tears all of a sudden in the third verse like I used to in my teens), Cotton Fields version by udo J?rgens, vocal version of Guantanamera (Manuela), and Peter Alexander version of Delilah. There is something desperate about Schlager LPs from this period? At another stand I checked just the easylistening box, while Mariana checked the East German box This stand was considerably more expensive withe the cheapest tags being 5 Euros, and 10 Euros were not uncommon. I was in record buying mood after the first stand so I goes: ? Klaus Wunderlich - Hammond Sensationen in Phase Four, it has got the frantic mas que Nada version mentioned here last weak, I have not other Wuderlich records, so i figured I?d start here. Lara?s Theme, Matchmaker (from Fddler On The Roof), Love Is Blue - the band is notch to loose to be groovy now sound, is this a common malady of Wunderlich records, but nice organ sounds he?s got Up Up and Away, Honey (if it works on a wordless version, too?), Mas Que Nada - great drums here, triple hammond, percussive, Highway Speed, Strangers in The Night, Can?t Take My Eyes Off You ? nice one!, The Impossible Dream, What The World Needs Now Is Love - trot?s along fine, Born Free ? they can?t seem go wrong with this tune, but hammond organs seem to sound the worst when they attempt the grandezza of a 40 piece orchestra. ? Edmundo Ros - Bongos from The South I always liked Ros? sound and humor, he can sometimes mingle amoung the best latin bands, so I tried my luck with this title, I like bongos! Deep In The Heart of Texas ? South is a relative term :?), brassy Lisbon Antigua, brassy, flutey, guitary, the bongos a re a bit far off for my taste Lady of Spain ? heavy castanets? La Comparsa My Old Kentucky Home - The percussion goes off here ? great sound and groove, he likes to come on un-expectedly - not bad at all Brazil - Done by Ros this a good companion to Cugat?s best cuts, really, really good When The Saints Go Marching In Moon Over Miami Roses from The South Taboo - Yep! A good one! With horns sort of baxterish, loud bongos and nice woodwinds In A little Spanish Town - this has unsual stereo portions with all continuity and all of the ambience on the left and only short bits on the right El Cumbachero - percussion show-off, much like Command albums I heard ? The One 10 Euro album I bought was Percy Faith Malguena Music of Cuba (CBS SS 62 489), with title cut, Tabu and Siboney among my favourites. recent ebay scores were ? Mongo Santamaria - Hey! Let?s Party, Columbia CS 9273 (cool version of Satisfaction here for example ? The Corporation ? Command RS 929 SD, leaves me speechless as of yet, Vinnie Bell galore and electric harpsicord, doesn?t appear to be a clavinet, mor like a real harpsicord with pick-ups plugged into guitar fx in parts ? the Big Bad rock Guitar of Glen Campbell, Capitol ST 2392 ? great! but not as special as i was hoping for, sounds very much like Billy Strange own records. credits include: produced by Steve Douglas arranged and conducted by Billy Strange - that makes three wrecking crew guys mentioned on the cover. The guitar is not as heavy as with The Gee Cees, which is what i was hoping for. ? Mel Taylor And the Magics ? In Action: this is absolutely great, wow. I knew three tracks from compilations, but the other 9 all have the same quality. Mel was the Ventures? drummer and here he?s is even more front and center, beautiful.

Months later, I happened upon it at Amoeba Music, displayed on a shelf above the new arrivals bin. I'm not a god person, but I do beleive in the Vinyl Gods and they were speaking to me that day :) Give it a try, it's lots of fun. SPACE AGE POP FEATURED ALBUM Murderer's Row Lalo Schifrin Colgems COMO-5003 One of the in demand soundtracks, always a strong seller on ebay, often $40 and up. This is a beautiful copy, just wish it was in stereo. Well, now you get to hear it. Very short - barely over 25 minutes. It's good, but no better than any other similar soundtracks that sell for a fraction. Like Elmer Bernstein's The Silencers (not the Dean Martin singing one), Up The Down Staircase or Kenyon Hopkins' Mr. Buddwing. It's no Mission: Impossible, that's for sure. Care to comment?
