I thought Beefheart fans on the list would find the following exchange

Irwin:
A friend of mine (I think it was Glenn Jones) gave me a xerox of
Beefheart's birth certificate & that's what was on it. I mean, heck, his
dad was a gas station attendant & not of Dutch ancestry. The "van" was
an artistic affectation that Don apparently added somewhere along the
line. At least that's what I assumed from seeing th birth cert.
cheers,
Byron

Subject: (exotica) Lalo Schifrin question
The other night I went down to my neighborhood
record store, and they had this Lalo Schifrin
"surf" record. It had a blue cover. They couldn't
find the vinyl inside, so they're holding the cover
for me until the record turns up. This was on
Colpix, not Verve.
I figured this would be a good time to ask if this record is any good.
I know Schifrin's career has been pretty uneven.
groovin' to Isaac Hayes,
Kerry

Checking the discography at
http://siteworks.com/szabo/lsd55_65.htm
would this be "Gone With The Wave"? This is the only release they list on
Colpix for the '55-'65 range. Released (or recorded?) October 1964. On the
reviews page
http://siteworks.com/szabo/ls_rev.htm
he gives it a thumbs-up, describing it as, "A terrific collection of catchy,
upbeat jazz tunes accompanying a documentary film on surfing." Also says it's
"very, very hard to find." Players include Shelly Manne, Howard Roberts,
Laurindo Almeida and Paul Horn.

Subject: (exotica) REVIEW> Roberto Bonati: "Voglio Una Donnaaa!" (soundtrack)
This review has been added to my web site...........
Roberto Bonati: "Voglio Una Donnaaa!" (soundtrack)
REVIEW:
This is quite a mixed bag. The six vocal tracks are modern, commercial
Italian pop. The rest of the soundtrack is much more interesting, and could
well appeal to Italian soundtrack lovers as well as the new lounge fans.
It's written by Roberto Bonati, contrabass teacher at a conservatory and
active in both jazz and contemporary music.
Several of Bonati's 19 tracks are played by a small jazz combo (1 or 2
saxes up front, piano, electric guitar, drums, bass) and create nice and
tight, propulsive, danceable, sophisticated, no-nonsense pop jazz.
Especially on track #2, "Genitori stecchiti", it's hard to sit still!
Other similar titles are "Chinotto", "La scuola", "Getaway" and "Addio
Ermete". This last one adds some wild piano abuse.
The first half of "Jail blues" is a very slow and moody blues for guitar
and drums, but then switches to some playfull, uptempo jazz pop in the
same vein.
Playfull too, and yet intimate, is "Beguino dello yogurt".
Yet another Latin piece, "Suite del tango", has some nice touches of circus
music.
"Hermann, il cattivo" sounds to me like an homage to the Batman theme!
"Suite di Roxa" is one of the most interesting and intrigueing tracks. Over
10 minutes of rather minimalistic, repetitive and hypnotising music with
only flute, alt sax, light Latin percussion, and bass. Watchamacallit? New
age beatnik?
Bonati's simple and straightforward approach, without much ornaments,
reminds me slightly of Badalamenti's "Twin Peaks" score on a couple of
tracks, especially in "Sheridan, il tenente".
Several other of Bonati's tracks are more sentimental, played by a chamber
orchestra ("Cecilia"), piano plus cello ("Psyco"), acousticic guitar and
flute ("Addio Cecilia", "Addio Roxa", "Addio Ida"), piano and flute ("La
notte de Cecilia"). About the only one of these romantic tracks that wasn't
too sentimental for me, is "Valzer", a beautiful, very very Italian waltz,
reminding me of Franco Battiato.
The eclectic nature of this score (tango, circus music, jazz, chamber
music) has to remind us of the inevitable influence of that Italian genius,
Nino Rota.
I'm afraid the TOTAL soundtrack will only appeal to people who watched and
liked the album, but if you don't mind zapping your CD, there's a lot of
good tracks to enjoy here!

Subject: (exotica) Free Design Frenzy
Well, not only are Varese reissuing a Free Design compilation this
Summer but NEXT MONTH Spanish label Siesta are releasing their own
20-track Free Design compilation. Just like buses, eh - wait for 25
years and two come along at once!
Siesta also released a FD Christmas EP last year so, rather
belatedly, here's some info about that first (it's still available):
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
FREE DESIGN- "CHRISTMAS" EP (siesta 65)
If there is one re-issue worth doing in the whole wide world for the
Christmas of 1997, certainly this is the one. The Free Design's
Christmas single. Siesta rediscovers this lost masterpiece that is
however, as fresh today as it was some thirty years ago.
The single features 3 outstanding ecclesiastical-vocal cuts (dorian
benediction/ my very own angel/ lullaby) inexplicably unreleased in
Japan that is wrapped in perfect white-vinyl and classy design
"siesta trademark". To be served with a plate of oysters.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
And here's what they have to say about the compilation:
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
FREE DESIGN - "BUBBLES" CD/vinyl
Free Design enthusiasts who have been wishing and hoping for a more
definitive collection of their music will get their wish next month
[3 March to be precise] when Siesta will release a 20-song CD/ double
10" vinyl LP (with tracks from the legendary Children's album). We're
sure that what the world needs now is more Free Design...
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
If you're in the UK you can get these titles through Rough Trade.
Alternatively, you can get them directly from Siesta. Their website
is at:
http://www.get.es/siesta/
Woo-ee, I can't wait!

TOM WAITS / HARRY PARTCH
Tom Waits supposedly used a Harry Partch instrument or two on one of his
albums--possibly Swordfishtrombones, Rain Dogs, or another from that
period.
It might have been Partch's Chromelodeon (and someone else might have
played it).
Can anyone out there confirm if the above is true, and if so, what
album, what track, what instrument, and who played it (assuming this
info is available in the personnel).
Please reply directly to me, not to the list.
Thanks!

Spotted this on Dusty Grooves' site and was just wondering....
Gals & Pals -- Vocals 1963-1967 . . . CD . . . $13.99
Metronome (Germany), Mid-60's Condition: New Copy
Cool reissue of this obscure Swedish vocal jazz group from the 60's,
with a sound that's similar to The Blue Notes of Paris, The Double Six,
The Singer Unlimited, The Swingle Singers, or other European jazz vocal
groups with male and female singers. This CD compiles 22 tracks of their
hard to find tracks from the mid 60's, including "Wives & Lovers", "Walk
On By", "Blue On Blue", "What The World Needs Now", and "Lullaby of
Birdland". Some tracks are in Swedish, so we don't know what they're
singing, but their covers of America stuff are very cool and groovy,
especially if you dig a jazzy vocal group like this!

Subject: (exotica) waxing historical (groan, sorry...)
Some historical significance to February 19 (soon to be today, it already is
for some of you)...
Edison was granted a patent for the tin-foil cylinder phonograph on February
19, 1878 -- making for roughly 120 years of sound from needles in grooves!
Actually, the original prototype did its first recording and playback on that
legendary "Mary Had A Little Lamb" jam session, December 6, 1877 (maybe
preceded by an earlier paper-medium prototype in July, 1877 -- that recording
supposedly being, "Halloo").
Here's a couple of links for the occasion (which reminds me -- where's Lou been
lately?)...
http://ac.acusd.edu/History/recording/notes.html
Provides a historical chronology of recording technology. This also includes a
bit of information on the 33/45-rpm format wars. Columbia introduced the 12" 33
1/3; RCA countered with the 7" 45, but after a few years, they called off the
war and added each others' formats to their own production. No mention on the
78 angle, or what other companies did while this was going on.
http://www.rose.com/~caps/index.htm
Is the home of the Canadian Antique Phonograph Society, pretty much
self-explanatory. They also have a nice batch of links on hand.
So... Happy Patent Day, everyone.

Subject: Re: (exotica) Tom Waits / Harry Partch
Lessee here - all the instruments are listed on each track.
He uses "Metal Aunglongs" on the song "Shore Leave" - played by Francis Thumm,
who was the guy who turned Tom onto Harry Partch. Don't know if that's a
Partch special, but it could be.
Elsewhere he uses lots of odd instrumentation, but I don't see anything
unrecognizable. Certainly not the Chromolodeon. Lots of odd percussion (Bass
boo bams, brake drum, bell plate). Some marimba - which was a Partch
favorite, but nothing else distinctively Partchian.
The book _Small Change_, about TW, does describe Partch's influence on Waits.
Which Tom himself would acknolwedge as primarily a sense of liberation, the
ability to make music out of anything, rather than using Partch's scales or
specific instruments. Of course, the Hal Wilner project of Minus music uses
Partch's instruments extensively.

Boom", Moondog and Henry Mancini! Film comes out next month, I think.
Also, Entertainment Weekly reports this week that the director's cut of Orson Welles'

Yes, the album in question is the soundtrack from GONE WITH THE WAVE. It's
okay west coast cool-type jazz, but the 2-minute track called "A Taste of
Bamboo" would be of great interest to readers here as it's extremely exotic!
Just don't expect any twangy, fuzzy 'lectric guitar.

FYI
I believe Bilitis was Sappho's lover, so my guess is that
it's a lesbianploitation flick.

Subject: Re: (exotica) Lalo Schifrin question
For fans of Schifrin, I really urge you to pick up Primal Scream's new "If
They Move, Kill 'Em" EP. Kevin SHields' (from My Bloody Valentine) remix of
the title track is the coolest, most fantastic Schifrin-ish song I've heard
in a long time! He's re-EQ'd the horns to sound extremely distorted and
abrasive and the hiphop/triphop beats are funkier than ever. It's a Bullitt
for the 90s....Buy buy buy!!!!! :)

Cribbing from the Maltin book...
"Bilitis" (French, 1977) Starred Patti D'Arbanville, Mona Kristensen, Bernard
Giraudeau, Mathieu Carriere and Gilles Kohler. Patti D'Arbanville plays a
student in the throes of her first romance. Director David Hamilton was better
known for his series of toney books of soft-focus nudie photos (they were
always a distraction when doing inventory on the photography section at the
bookstore).
Sorry, that's still no help on the soundtrack. If it's anything like the
director's photos, it would be gauzy, sleepy sort of music.

Any ideas where these RPM's came from anyway? I mean 33 and a 1/3? Why not
just 33 or 34?
Just curious.

I've seen two versions of the BILITIS soundtrack, the difference being the
covers. Both feature Hamilton's trademark soft-focus photos of nude,
underage girls, which is why he shares some controversy with photographer
Jock Sturges.
Not being a devotee of Francis Lai's music, I passed.

They were underage? Huh, that never struck me. Of course, I was underage myself
back then (late 70's), so that would skew the ol' perspective a bit.

Torn from yesterdayÆs headlines!: TEENAGE REBELLION (67) shocks with tales
of "The Gay Teenager," "A Pot Party," and Mike CurbÆs music. Quincy JonesÆ
brooding, paranoid score chills the plasma in the true crime classic IN COLD

Cooler-than-Bond Dirk Bogarde takes his cues from Jerry GoldsmithÆs trΘs
groovie "now sounds" in SEBASTIAN (68). Kenyon HopkinsÆ hip jazz strains

Schifrin Launches Record Label
By Phil Gallo
HOLLYWOOD (Variety) - Composer, arranger and conductor Lalo Schifrin, best
known for his "Mission: Impossible"
theme, has launched a record label that will be distributed through the
Internet worldwide.
The first Aleph Records release is "Film Classics," a CD of a December
1995 concert in Marseilles, France,
commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Lumiere brothers' film process.
In May, the label will release a recording of Schifrin's "Gillespiana,"
featuring trumpeter Jon Faddis and Paquito D'Rivera on
alto saxophone. A new recording of "Jazz Mass," the piece for which
Schifrin won his first of four Grammys, is slated for
later in the year, and in April, the London Symphony will record his "Jazz
Meets the Symphony No. 4."
Schifrin's wife, Donna, heads Aleph -- named after the first letter of the
Hebrew alphabet -- which is exploring retail
distribution in Europe.
"We are waiting a little to create a catalog" before considering retail
distribution, Lalo Schifrin told Daily Variety from his
home in Los Angeles. He will serve as Aleph's artistic director and the
label's main artist.
The score for Schifrin's most recent film work, "Tango," will be released
by Deutsche Grammaphon. His other works have
been issued by Warner Bros., Atlantic, Verve and others.
Schifrin, who has been touring Europe and Argentina, sees the label as a
chance to bring his work in jazz, film, TV, pop,
Latin and the classical fields into one central place.
"Because there are several aspects of my career and it continues to
evolve, the label gives me a chance to show the breadth
of my career along with soloists of great stature."
The label can be accessed at www.alephrecords.com or www.schifrin.com.
