What's cool to you? Anything that's fast and Latin? You need those grunts
and yells
thrown in? Why don't you turn some Cugie records onto 45 rpm and you may
like them
more. Perhaps what you mean to say is Cugat wasn't fiery like Machito.
Perhaps, but
Cugie was the symbol of cool. A womanizing, steak eating, Chihuahua
carrying, movie
starring, big band leading suave businessman  that introduced Latin music
to mainstream
America has some cool in him, brother. You'd better  believe it, Sister
Sledge!

Cugie's musicians thought (along with you) that he was a sell-out  because
his music was
toned down for the mass audience. Well it's true. Mainstream America was
not ready for Machito.
So the MPC (musically politically correct) folks like yourself have decided
 that because it wasn't
fiery and authentic enough Latin music, he sucked. Wrong! I take my two
favorite types of music,
Latin and Orchestral pop and I merge them together. It's an awesome merging
 that may not be for
all ears, but before you start railing on Cugie as a "hack", consider
whether you would have even
heard of Ros or Machito if it weren't for him.

Explore his Mercury/Polygram records. The stuff that has yet to see reissue
 on CD. Perhaps you'll
turn your Cugat naivet? into an appreciation of what "cool" (not hot)
really is.

Subject: Re: (exotica) moon river

Nan Vernon's version of moon river on the "Shots in the Dark"
Comp from Del-Fi is fan-fuggin-tastic. Moody, mysterious, wistful, and
ohhhhhh soooooo sexy. I'ts the last track on the CD, and if you let
yourself sit quietly and reflect on it's beauty for two minutes or so
after the song has faded out it fades back in and continues in FRENCH!

I have to admit to disliking the song rather intensely for as long I can
remember - back to the time the Pat Boone version was played mercilessly
on KLOK, the oldies station I listened to as a child (Even as a
youngster, I was friendly with the far margins of aesthetics, but I draw
the line long before Pat Boone.)

Your huckleberry friend,

Speaking as a mobile DJ with some ties to the Latino community in Boston, I
play many Latin hits at their functions and usually mix in stuff from
Ultralounge and other "Latin Lounge" artists....They don't even separate the
two when packing a dance floor...Machito and the Salsoul Orchestra's "Ritzy
Mambo" which is a disco-mambo track from about '76 each pack the floor and
leave 'em wanting more..The point being its the groove that really matters to
the dancers

they're extremely different, as there's no tape manipulations or
electronics going on, but lots of inventive arrangements. "Poppppppppp!"
has some stellar tracks, but overall I like "Holiday For DJ's" better. He
also did a very nice album in the early 70's, the title of which escapes
me, that featured the names of actresses for the song titles. On his last
album in '76, he covered "Do The Hustle".

You use "cheez" in a way that makes me think you have a *negative* value
judgment attached to that term. ;-)

Everyone's entitled to their taste, and this taste is a good contrast as
pretty much the OPPOSITE of me. I, and historically a potential majority
of folks on this list, are more drawn to those other artists and started
pillaging the thrift stores because, while LPs like POPS & PRADO and
ROCKAMBO may not be "definitive," they're much more quirky, eccentric,
and, well, *FUN*. "Legit" jazz, "legit" Latin, "legit" big band/swing,
are far too often uninteresting to ME. (Give me Dean Elliott over the
Dorseys ANY DAY, and Living Stereo-era Prado over all those "definitive
mambo" masters combined.)

My world, for one, is a much more fun place for them having "sold out."
;-)

BTW, I concur with the view stated on here before that Mercury had the
near monopoly on cool Cugat LPs.

Speaking of Ros, has anyone ever heard his early 70s Phase 4 album THIS
IS MY WORLD? It's got this *incredible* lead track with Ros singing about
himself and his music, "El Mundo de Edmundo (This Is My World)" that
comes off like a theme song for some bombastic Edmundo Ros Sonny &
Cher-esque TV show (maybe it WAS!??). I don't have any vivid memories of
the rest of the record, but that track is just mind-meltingly amusing to
me.

And let it be said that Ros' HAIR GOES LATIN is one of my favorite albums
to listen to, and for me goes far beyond one-time-joke "camp." I could
listen to that sucker indefinitely. (Meanwhile, I don't think I've ever
made it all the way through any of those Machito LPs I picked up, but I
intend to someday.)

Not intended to be flame-inducing hate mail,

An autodidact is a self-taught or self-educated person. A dilletant, if
you will or amateur. Both words were originally used with a positive
meaning. Often those kind of artists stand for a certain freshness and
artistic inventions, that professionals couldn't make, because they are
handicapped by the rules of their knowledge.

hi yall

Just read through the last week's digests - lots of good stuff in there!

Someone posted:

(re Edmundo Ros)
>It's on "Heading south of the border" (Phase 4) along with versions of
>"Light my fire" (of course), "Hey Jude" (the "3rd man theme" of my
>generation) and "I was Kaiser Bill's Batman".  And yeah it's a Latin beat.

AAAAGGGH not "Kaiser Bill" - Whistling Jack Smith (who he?) that IMO
godawful whistling tune from 67 - aaaiiie NOO! It was on UK VH-1's "Sixties
weekend" last week (isn't that every weekend on VH-!? <g>  aside: what did
they show? oh you know the usual, with very few surprises BUT we did get to
see the very wonderful MC5 doing "Kick out the Jams" on Beat Club circa 69 -
whadda band!!! and some cool footage of Le Jimi Hendrix Experience on German
TV in 67 just before they hotfooted it over to do Monterey - dig Noel
Redding's shades - lucky I was sittin' near the video :-)

Anyway. The mention of "Light my Fire" above makes me wonder what are folks'
favourite covers of this Golden Oldie (tm) - howzabout Julie London's
treatment on a late-60s album on Liberty (I think it's called "Yummy Yummy
Yummy" ?) where she does contemporary pop choons inna sultry torch song
stylee
(including a smooooochy version of "Louie Louie" of all thangs)  And I quite
like the Ros version - lush Phase 4 stereo, swingin arrangement as I recall.
Any other suggestions?>

talkin of the Doors, has anyone out there heard of Swedish band "Soundtrack
of Our Lives" ? they're cool IMO. I reckon they've listened to a few Doors
albums in their time. <g>


Meanwhile ... "Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas" sounds like a must - am I right
in thinking this is the latest Terry Gilliam project? If it's out in the US
in May, I guess it'll be summer here in the UK when we can expect a FURORE
from our wunnerful popular press. "Must we fling this FILTH at our pop kids"
etc.

And here's a coupla requests.

i) Surf instrumentals. Where to start?
ii) AIR. Did anyone happen to tape their recent "Radio 1 In The Mix" sesh?
 I missed it, dangaroo. I should really read those programme listings.

anyway thanks for the space!


groovily

Subject: Re: (exotica) collected  thoughts/surf instros

> i) Surf instrumentals. Where to start?

I'm not sure how available they will be in the UK, but here are some CD comps I
thought were pretty solid (as opposed to the ubiquitous thrown-together
quickies):

"Guitar Player Presents Legends Of Guitar -- Surf, Vol. 1" (1991 Rhino R2
70724)
Good, strong selection with informative liner notes.

"Rock Instrumental Classics, Vol. 5: Surf" (1994 Rhino R2 71605)
Slightly less hard-core selection, also has instructive liner notes.

"Rare Surf Volume 1: The South Bay Bands" (1995 AVI/Hepcat CD 5009)
"Rare Surf Volume 2: The South Bay Bands" (1995 AVI/Hepcat CD 5010)
These get into more obscure areas, actually digging into material that was
never released at the time -- some of it mighty fine. Belairs guitarist, Paul
Johnson, was involved with the recording of a lot of this stuff. The Nocturnes,
a Latino/Anglo surf/r&b/space combo, on Vol. 2 are a real find.

The "Teen Beat" series on Britain's own Ace Records (no, no relation -- don't I
wish) covers rock 'n' roll instros in general, so pure surf is only part of the
mix -- if that matters to you. It's a good series though, with 30 tracks to a
disc. They're up to Volume 4 now.

The comps should give you a good idea of artists you may want to explore
further. There's been so much of this stuff re-released in the 90's. One fun
single-artist disc is:
The Tornadoes "Bustin' Surfboards" (1993 Sundazed SC 6003). Includes some
tracks engineered by young Franky Zappa!

Subject: (exotica) "The Single Eye" playlist for April 5, 1998.

"The Single Eye" can be heard every Sunday at 4pm on CKUT 90.3 fm in
Montreal, Canada.

The Monks: Monk Time "Black Monk Time"
+ certainly one of the most aggressive sounding 60's bands. The group was
formed by a couple of  U.S. servicemen stationed in Germany. A sixties
classic. By the way, The Fall coverered a couple of their tunes.

Fifty Foot Hose: Red the Sign Post "Cauldron"
+ Outstanding psych plus primitive electronics. What a combination.

Silver Apples: Oscillations "Silver Apples"
+ from 1968. Danny Taylor plays the drums & Simeon plays "the Simeon" which
was a home-made electronic instrument constructed out of a series of
oscillators (triggered by a telegraph keys & footpedals I believe). When
someone says that a band is "ahead of their time", they are talking about
the Silver Apples.

Lothar & the Hand People: Machines "Presenting..."
+ Lothar was the name of the group's theremin. One moment the band sounds
like clanking machinery & the next a country/folk group. Very odd.

Peter Thomas: The Evil Eye "100% Cotton"
+ from the double cd set on the Crippled Dick Hot Wax label.

Combustible Edison: Cadillac "I, Swinger"

Spaceheads: Eat the Machine "Spaceheads"
+ The worlds only drum/trumpet-through-electronics duo. This track was
constructed by Stock, Hausen & Walkman's Matt Wand.

DJ Food: Mr Quickie Cuts the Cheese "A Recipe for Disaster"
+ can you spot Hugo Montenegro's "Moog Power" in the mix?

Mark 4: Matto Grosso "Stroboscopica"
+ cd comp on Plastic Records. Nicely done.

Stereolab: We're not Adult Oriented "Space Age Bachelor Pad Music"

Portishead: Wandering Star "Dummy"

July: The Way "July"
+ Sitars & tablas & trippy lyrics. Band members Tony Duhig & John Field
went on to form "Jade Warrior", a seventies exotica group (Tho' at the
time, no one would have refered to them as that!).

101 Strings: Trippin' on Lunar 07 "Astro-Sounds from Beyond the Year 2000"
+ from the Scamp cd reissue.

Oranj Symphonette: The Pink Panther Theme "Shots in the Dark"
+ This has to be one of the few compilations where I like every track.
Recommended. On Del-Fi Records.

Raymond Scott: At an Arabian House Party "Reckless Nights & Turkish
Twilights"

Thanks for reading. Feedback welcome!
Allan.

Subject: (exotica) sequal records: you could be wrong about boys

hi there,

went to the record store today and picked up a sampler from a record
company called "sequal records" they apparently released some albums on
bachelor pad music and 60's easy listening.
one particular interest was a CD entititled : you could be wrong about
boys vol. 1...it features a handful of undiscovered female talents from
the 60's singing phil spechter-ish(sorry if i spelled that wrong) and
bubbly leslie gore/petula clark style pop!  i really enjoyed the sampler
and am sure the full length is even better...can anyone on the list tell
me how i can get a hold of this album...it's domestic, so it should be
fairly easy to find...

thanks in advance.

Oops, sorry. I forgot to add that the above Tornadoes bear no relation to the
Tornados from Britain, who hit big with "Telstar" (produced by Joe Meeks). The
above Tornadoes were kids from Redlands, California.

Subject: Re: (exotica) Pat Boone and metal

I understand your hesitation with the Pat Boone album, but I have to put
in a (minor) plug for it.  It's one of those records in which the artist's
motivation/vision is truly puzzling to me.  I can't decide if it's
"straight" or not--not that it matters.  But does Boone think he's making
a "hip" record?  Or is it ironic?  Could it possibly be?  Does he remember
his own version of "Tutti Frutti"?

Still, I love the orchestral/band arrangements of the metal songs--like on
"Crazy Train," when a vocal chorus sings "Woo! Woo!" in train-whistle
style.  The album is funny and ironic and sincere all at once (if that's
possible).  Reminds me of when I was a kid, walking the streets of
the Lake Tahoe strip with my parents and grandparents.  Wayne Newton was
playing one of the clubs there, and there was a speaker out on the
sidewalk so you could hear his set.  I nearly lost it when I heard him do
Judas Priest's "You Got Another Think Comin'," but then he segued right
into "Billie Jean" by Michael Jackson.  It was truly inspiring.

Subject: Re: (exotica) Pat Boone and metal

I saw a couple of interviews with him on tv after the album was released.  He
said he thought that some heavy metal songs had significant messages in the
lyrics, and he wanted to redo the songs so the words would be heard by a
different audience.  At the same time he realized the humor/camp appeal of the
whole idea--which is why he wore a black leather jacket on some awards show.
Unfortunately, a lot of conservative Christians don't understand irony/satire,
and Boone received a big backlash from his (current) core audience.

>One executive hints that Depp's Hawaiian shirt may become a
fashion trend.  The movie's soundtrack, said to feature 70's lounge, may also
start something.

Where the hell has this executive been!
I just got back from Macy's in SF where Reyn Spooner folks were on hand. They
said one of their models (Palms and Huts is the name) didn't go over big when
first released about two years ago because they retained the original color
scheme. Then it was shown (on an actor) in two movies and now it is one of
their best sellers.
And regarding the 70s Lounge music, did this guy see Swingers, or Boogie
Nights, or Austin Powers?

The Caterina Valente Singers do a fan-tastic version with sweet worldless
Doop, doo-wa!'s
Caterina is too much of gal!
To add to the now tired Ros vs Prado vs Cugat chapter, she does an album
with Ros of which I've been blessed with a couple 'o tracks on my latest
drive-compilation.

Subject: (exotica) Increase in the surface Poppulation?

Sorry about the bad pun, but at least you know it's me.  While looking at
an old Dick Van Dyke Show, a credit caught my attention: Music
Coordination: Walter Popp.  Apparently, this Popp also played the Sands in
Las Vegas in the 1960's (what one can find out on the Web, oy!).

Is he related to Andre' Popp?

Stay tuned, I just got 4 boxes of records,
Brian Phillips

Thanks!

>I understand your hesitation with the Pat Boone album, but I have to
put
in a (minor) plug for it.  It's one of those records in which the
artist's
motivation/vision is truly puzzling to me.  I can't decide if it's
"straight" or not--not that it matters.  But does Boone think he's
making
a "hip" record?  Or is it ironic?  Could it possibly be?

i bought it, then took it back and traded it for something else because I
already have enough of that sound.  (intense horns and organs blasting away)

    is this TIME, or TIME-LIFE? the problem with Time-life is that
    they don't deliver outside the US...

Subject: (exotica) re: Ganimian & His Oriental Music + ?!?!?

Ganimian & His Oriental Music "Come With Me To The Casbah",
released on Atco records. 1/2 of it is as good as any belly dancing record
ever will get.

Gionni there is no need for you to argue her as both me and Cheryl got the
original LP and it features the tracks booted on the Jungle Exotica and Wavy
Gravy comps. Now, one of these days I'll ask Tim or Barney if they actually
have 45's by him or if they just changed the name around for safety reasons.

For the record I must second mr. ace's "?!?!" post. The level of verbal
exchange on this list is getting worse and worse.
