Subject: (exotica) Cool And Strange Music! Mag #8
Well, Mr. PROCRASTINATOR finally got the press release done,so if you would be
so kind to post it on the Exotica Mailing List, I'd be grateful.
- -Dana (Coolstrge@aol.com)
C&SM Mag
Issue #8 of Cool And Strange Music! Magazine is here!!
It's another 48 pages, beautifully offset-printed, with a cool color cover,
lots of high-quality photos, tons of new wacky and weird CD reviews and it's
more fun than ever!
Featuring exclusive interviews with comedy music legend, STAN FREBERG, and the
late TINY TIM!! We also have articles on MILWAUKEE'S COOLEST RECORD STORES,
and a story about the records made by the copycat bands that sprang up after
the success of The Tijuana Brass with our article, HERB ALPERT AND THE TIA-
WANNABE'S!! Learn all about the record industry's fascination with NASA's
space program in the early '60s with our piece on MUSIC FROM OUTER SPACE, and
we'll take a look at some of the world's most ridiculous liner notes, with THE
ART OF THE LINER NOTE. You'll also find lots of wacky, new CD reviews, and
loads more!! Our centerfold features some of WEIRDEST AND MOST WONDERFUL LP
COVERS you've ever seen! It's 48 pages of musical mayhem and madness!
It all starts with a cool cover story/interview with the brilliant song-
satirist, STAN FREBERG. Mr. Freberg shares with us many stories behind the
scenes of recording some of his classic, funny records of the late '50s and
early '60s. With the release of his STAN FREBERG PRESENTS THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA, PART TWO, last year, this funny-man is obviously still in top-form
and we're proud as punch to present J.R. William's exclusive interview with
this modern-day comedy genius!
Next, we have an exclusive interview with the late, great TINY TIM. Author
Ernie Clark, chatted with Tiny a few years before his death and we're happy to
run several pages of this fascinating interview. Tiny discusses his little-
known involvement with Bing Crosby, The Beatles, Frank Sinatra, and Lenny
Bruce, among others, as well as discussing some of his most obscure
recordings.
Some of the most fascinating albums were recorded in the late '50s and early
'60s, to quench the public's obsession with the Space Program and NASA's plan
to send a man to the moon. With their colorful, imaginative covers depicting
moon people, spaceships and the heavens, the music inside these fanciful
sleeves were often just as wonderful. Ken Saari takes us through a tour of
MUSIC FROM OUTER SPACE, highlighting the cream of the crop of these "space"
records.
We travel to the Mid-West, for a look at MILWAUKEE'S BEST RECORD STORES, as
Kevin John takes us on a brief tour though the choice places to find unusual
vinyl! You've got to have this article if you're shopping for unusual records
in Milwaukee!
Our photo centerfold this time is the ever-popular, LATIN BABES!, some of the
sexiest senoritas to ever grace a Cha-Cha album! Take a gander at these gals!
Woo-woo!
When Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass hit the bigtime, with their zippy
instrumental music, nearly every fly-by-night record label rushed to put out
their own "copycat" version to cash in on the craze. Brad Bigelow escorts us
through the best and worst of these records with his piece on HERB ALPERT AND
THE TIA-WANNAVE'S. These are the records you've probably been passing up for
years! Some of these discs are excellent, so find out all about what you've
been missing!
If you believe EVERYTHING you read, then you must be convinced that Elvis is
really alive and living on Mars! You also probably bought most of the records
described in Ed Kaz' article, ART OF THE LINER NOTE. Our funnyman-writer
points out some especially hilarious examples of some of the most incredible
liner-note hype ever written, desperately trying to sell records to the
browsing buyer! If you don't chuckle at a few of these ACTUAL liner notes, you
must be dead.
All this, and a whole lot more fun stuff than we dare mention, and you'll find
a very Cool Issue #8 of COOL AND STRANGE MUSIC! MAGAZINE. So get on board!
It's gonna be a cool ride through the wild, wacky and sometimes tacky world of
records!
COOL AND STRANGE MUSIC! MAGAZINE is available at most Tower Records and Tower
Books stores and the following bookstore chains: Borders, Bookstar, and
Bookstop. We are also in hundreds of newsstands and independent bookstores
around the U.S., so take a look!

released in 1958. Barbara Graham (Susan Hayward) awaits her fate on San
Quentin's death row. She is a huge jazz fan and "has all of Gerry Mulligan's
records". there is a night club scene where Mulligan and bongoist Mike
Pacheco appear in the film.
the score is all West Coast jazz all-stars doing what they do. side one
starts out nice and easy with side two getting increasingly dark and
depressing as the hour of execution nears.
there are two "I Want To Live" records - the original soundtrack and
Mulligan's Jazz Combo performing more music from the film, also arranged by
Mandel.

Subject: (exotica) Charles Albertine
Michael Toth wrote:
>Is Charles Albertine [arranger of some of the Three Suns' best material on
RCA Living Stereo] still alive?
Sadly, no. He died in 1986. Albertine also contributed the arrangements
on Les and Larry Elgart's Columbia albums, which include some great early
1960s dance numbers (ala frug, swim, monkey, jerk, twist).
Here's his bio from his page on the Space Age Standards website:
http://home.earthlink.net/~spaceagepop/albertin.htm
Charles Albertine
Born 1929, Passaic, New Jersey
Died 18 May 1986, Los Angeles, California
Albertine started as a tenor saxman with a variety of dance bands,
including
Sammy Kaye's, in the late 1940s. He then spent a year in the pit band
of a
Broadway show before going to work with Les Elgart's newly-formed band.
Albertine quickly became the lead arranger and a prime factor in the
success of
the Elgart sound, which kept one foot in traditional sweet swing and
another in the more minor-keyed jazz of late bebop. He left the
Elgarts in the late 1950s and
began working with Al Nevins and a number of Aldon Music's stars such
as Neil
Sedaka. He arranged most of The Three Suns' later albums during the
RCA "Living Stereo" era, including the classic "Movin' and Groovin,'"
"Fever and Smoke," "Warm and Tender," and "On a Magic Carpet." These
albums contain some of the boldest, most jarring use of stereo
separation and contrasting instrumentation to be heard in supposedly
safe, mainstream pop music. Most of these albums also featured one
or two originals penned by Albertine. He worked with the Elgarts again in
the early 1960s, arranging some of their best "discotheque"-style
dance albums. He also contributed occasional arrangements to
Lawrence Welk's 1960s albums.
Albertine's Bandstand Boogie" was adopted by Dick Clark as the theme
song for his long-running series, "American Bandstand." He dabbled in
film scoring, providing the title song for the Viking epic, "The
Long Ships," but most of his later career was spent in television, on
series ranging from the soap opera, "The Days of Our Lives" to
"Gidget," "The Incredible Hulk," "The Bionic Woman," and "Fantasy
Island." He wrote classical pieces as well, including a symphony and
concert settings of poems by Edna St. Vincent Millay and
Nietzsche.

Subject: (exotica) The Disadvantages of Trader Vic's
Been outta town, just caught up on my digests:
1) I agree heartily, "Disadvantages of You" is the Now Sound anthem!
But I also have very, very vague memories of being obsessed with
a Dr. Scholl's TV ad in the late 60s when I was a little kid, and
the Brass Ring track really reminds me of it - does this ring any
bells out there??
2) A Trader Vic's in London!!! Must know more - where, what
hotel? One of the most perfect evenings of my adult life
was when we stumbled completely accidentally into the Palmer House
Hilton in Chicago, discovered the Trader Vic's, and where drunk
before the end of the first Menehuni Mike cocktail... There
used to be a Vic's knock-off in Montreal called the Kon-Tiki (next
to Ben's Deli, for those familiar with Montreal), but I only
once looked in the door before my lounge-enlightened days... what
a waste - it was shut down in the early 80s, I believe.

If not, (or even if so) is there any CD comp anywhere that might include the

Subject: (exotica) Music for TV Dinners
A long search finally ended when I found "Music for TV Dinners", and "M for
TVD the 60s". I've been looking for this orchestral "production music"
stuff for a couple of years and thought I may never find a recording of it.
These are great CDs, with my only complaint being they're a little on the
short side (about 35 minutes each). The sound quality is truly amazing.
Hooray for Music for TV Dinners!
Does anyone know of any other similar releases out there? Will there be
another volume in this series? (or is there one already that I don't know
about?)

The Sound Gallery Compilations are similar in mood and artists - Laurie

sounds. I'm a big fan of that style too. I wasn't as wildly impressed
with the 1st volume of the Music For TV Dinners CD, but the second one
(The 60s) is the biscuit. And yeah, a tad on the short side (The Sound

Subject: Re: Re: (exotica) Music For TV Dinners
With regard to the shortness of the Scamp TV-Dinner CD's..First of all, how
much TV Dinner music can be out there to begin with? Sure its not known as TV
Dinner music and the very existence of the concept is owed to the creativity
of the producers, but its there for all to have! And it sounds damn good too.
Secondly, imagine producing such an esoteric product from conception to
distribution. The amount of work licensing, locating, remastering, running
off, producing art-work for, and distributing such a product is immense.
Companies like these often labor out of love and see little profit. I only
hope we see much more Scamp product. You can buy it sight
unseen..........Jimmy/tried to do a CD once and it never came out~

Thanks for your help

Well, I just picked up a spanking brand new (or, at least, previously
untouched) vinyl copy, from a local shop which had ten only. I'm still
not sure if it's a bootleg pressing or not, but it certainly sounds
great!

I don't think that surprises me, which is often a shame with current
groups. They can have a fantastically interesting sound but it never
changes. Perhaps this is more obvious when shelling out 11 quid for a new
LP/CD rather than 50p for old vinyl - you don't mind so much if it sounds
the same as all their others if you've not spent so much on it...
Other stuff:
Add N to X, Bowery Electric, DJ Spooky mix album, DJ Vadim/Little Aida, Sufi
Laika - Silver Apples of the Moon, Sounds of the Satellites
Alec Empire - Les Etoiles des Filles Mortes - i *love* this
Third Eye Foundation - Ghosts

If not, (or even if so) is there any CD comp anywhere that might include the

Anyone?

Moritz,
Do you know anything about the guy/guys that designed the Trader Vics in
Germany? I've heard it was a norvegian (don't remember his name) who got
in contact with the polynesian culture when sailing the Kon Tiki along
with Thor Heyerdahl.
Do you know anything about this?

who currently is re-reading Heyerdahls first book Fatuhiva and once

And who found some nice calypso LPs today at my lunchbreak.

This is a little off topic, but when I was a youngster, my parents used
to take us to a "family restaurant" somewhere in MD called "Peter
Pan's". What was memorable about this place is that it was a full-blown
artificial rainforest inside: trees growing up through the floor, tiki
stuff all over the place - even the f*ckin' Shirley Temples were served
in tiki mugs. The place had a sister restaurant in FL called "The Kapok
Tree Inn," and it was even more lush/extravagant, if I recall correctly
(I'm talking early 70's). Anyone else ever heard of these places? Do
such things still exist?
Wistfully,
BW

Wow! I've never heard of "Peter Pan's" and I live in Maryland.
Do you recall which area this was in?
I seriously doubt it's still around today......

I will have to ring the old guy tonight to fill in the blanks. By my
current standards of taste, the food was a war crime: the house
specialty was steak and hushpuppies (aka "gut-grenades"). My sister and
I collected the little plastic spears that were stuck in the meat when
it came all steaming & drippy to the table. These were color-coded: red,
rare; pink, medium and either green or yellow for well-done. But the
ambience was very ra-sha-sha.

We had a Peter Pan's in Albuquerque when I was a little kid (early '70s,
same as you) but I don't remember ever being inside it and it closed
probably around '71 or '72.

15-16 h.
Fantastica # 50
- ---------------
* Les Reed: "Girl On A Motorcycle"
[soundtrack CD: "Girl On A Motorcycle"]
rated ++++ (very good). lots of weird sounds and unusual
instrumentations, arranged very good, excellent melodies,
combination of French Francis Lai style (sophisticated,
lovely melodies, strings, big orchestratrions) and rock sounds
(electric guitars, heavy rhythms). horrible movie BTW IMHO,
featuring Marianne Faithfull, so the next track seemed
appropriate:
* New Classic Singers: "As Tears Go By"
[compil. CD: "Ultra-Lounge On The Rocks Part One"]
i like it as much, if not _better_ than any of the sung
versions by the Stones or Marianne. cd rated +++++ excellent
* Yat-Kha: "Solun Chaagai Sovet Churtum"
[CD: "Yenisei-Punk"]
see my review @ http://bewoner.dma.be/Dada/
* Air: "New Star In The Sky"
[CD: "Moon Safari"]
* Edward Barton, Featuring Emma: "What Shall We Do Today?"
[LP: "Here Is My Spoon"]
very weird, folky home-recorded type of stuff.
* Doodles Weaver: "Ode To A Loquat Tree"
[LP: "The Return Of Feetlebaum"]
one of the members of Spike Jones' band, very funny solo LP.
* Doodles Weaver, Featuring Pancake Pattie: "Music Goes Round"
[LP: "The Return Of Feetlebaum"]
sounds very very much like Darlene Edwards
* Piero Umiliani: "Samba Mah Na'"
[soundtrack LP (CD): "Svezia. Inferno E Paradiso"]
++++++
* Johan Dalgas Frisch: "Sukiyaki"
[LP: "Symphony Of The Birds"]
combination of rather middle of the road instromentals
with bird songs added. odd, funny, beautiful
* Ravi Harris & The Prophets: "I Dream Of The Desert Wind MIX"
[LP: "Funky Sitar Man"]
very funky but a bit too monotonous for me, so i added the
sounds of desert birds, desert wind and rattle snake.
really exotic!
* Stretch: "Loose Goose"
[compil. LP: "Dimensions In Sound Vol. 1"]
* Le Groupe Angklung: "Mak Inang (Fragment 2)"
[LP: "L'Indonesie"]
named after the sound their bamboo instruments are making:
klang klung.
* Gene Harris: "Higga Boom"
[compil. CD: "Blue Break Beats Vol. 2"]
* Mort Garson: "Easy To Be Hard"
[compil. CD: "Further Inflight Entertainment"]
* Mike Simpson: "Takes Two To Tango"
[LP: "Discussion In Percussion"]
yet another mad space age pop percussion album, though i
wouldn't say it's a classic...
* The Duke Of Burlington: "Vibrating Harp"
[LP: "Pressed Piano"]
the vibrating harp is the jaw harp (Jews harp),
the same thing used in the next track:
* Ennio Morricone: "Per Qualche Dollaro In Piu'"
[soundtrack LP: "For A Few Dollars More"]
* Winston Wright & The GG All-Stars: "Bonanza"
[compil. CD: "The Magnificent Fourteen"]
a cd with all (old school) reggae versions of classic film
themes. this track is great fun.
* Leroy Holmes: "I, A Lover/De Sade"
[compil. CD: "Ultra-Lounge Vol. 16: Mondo Hollywood"]
not exactly one of the best volumes, but it has some
great moments, like this track
(CD) = exists on CD
