The song is "Hawaiian War Chant," but I'm not sure who does the version
used in the commercial.  There's an excellent (and very similar, if not
the same) version by Billy Mure that turned up on the 1st volume of
_Incredibly Strange Music_.  I don't know which album it was on
originally.

Well, the 1972 album "Astrud Gilberto Now" offers some similarities in
sound, but it's not as far out as September, 17 (which is her masterpiece,
I agree -- almost her psychedelic record). "Now" is a more laidback affair,
with a strong contemporary Brazilian feel to it. It also marks Astrud's
debut as a songwriter with four of her own compositions. I like this
record a lot, she's more in control of the material and the production
than she was before and she sounds much more at ease.

I can't really get enough of her, but I've never found anything resembling
a discography so I'm not sure what I'm missing. I'll list what I've
amassed in the hope of someone suggesting any additions:

The Astrud Gilberto Album (Verve)
The Shadow of Your Smile (Verve)
Look to the Rainbow (Verve)
A Certain Smile, A Certain Sadness (Verve; with Walter Wanderley)
Beach Samba (Verve)
Windy (Verve)
I Haven't Got Anything Better to Do (Verve)
September 17, 1969 (Verve)
Gilberto with Turrentine (CTI)
Astrud Gilberto Now (Perception)
That Girl from Ipanema (Phoenix) (not a cheap compilation, despite title)
Astrud Gilberto Plus James Last (Polydor)
So & So (Denon; with Shigeharu Mukai)
Temperance (Pony Canyon)

Thanks,
Ingemar

THIS IS OUR FIGHTING and FIGHTING BACK PAGE.

It is a small forum compared to the media, but it is here and it
presents the truth.

Editorial

This editorial has not been seen by others in our family, but I feel it
is important to post it now. This is my opinion and I am not speaking
for anyone else.

Nancy Sinatra
March 9, 1998

THE MACHINE FEEDS ITSELF

The vultures are circling their own building in a short-sighted, cynical
attempt to cash in on a trend.

Entertainment Weekly is a Time Warner Publication. HBO is a Time Warner
company. The "Rat Pack" movie is being made for HBO. "Dino" and the
remake of "Ocean's 11" are at Warner Bros.

The spokespersons or publicists for the various producers involved, HBO
and Warner Bros are paid to generate publicity for these projects, all
of which fall under the same umbrella: Time Warner. The article
presented in the magazine is misleading, inaccurate and worse -
malicious. How dare Entertainment Weekly, a Time Warner company, malign
three gentlemen who have reaped hundreds and millions of dollars for
both the studio and its record labels. This is unconscionable!

Why is the Time Warner machine so ready and willing to desecrate the
images of three of the century's most prolific and gifted entertainers?

At least one of the movies, according to the dreadful script, is
obviously based on cartoonish, ill-conceived caricatures that would be
out of place even in a "Simpsons" episode.  This is clearly a case of
the Time Warner machine feeding itself.

The article is not only mean spirited, but an incestuous, underhanded
publicity stunt.

Considering the fact that all the "pack's" legitimate movies are under
one roof -- Warners' studios in Burbank, Warners is cheapening and
trivializing its own films.

It would be like Disney studios making x-rated versions of their classic
and cherished animated characters. Ironically, under the current laws,
this could not be done, because Mickey Mouse is protected. Frank Sinatra
is not.

In the article Dean, Sam and Frank are accused of being out of step with
the nineties -- and yet Time Warner is packaging and producing several
"high-profile" vehicles which showcase, and may destroy, their enduring
legacy!

More importantly, a whole new young audience has embraced lounge culture
and has a reverence for these larger than life folk heroes of the
Kennedy era. Isn't it sad that the images that will most likely be
presented in these projects will taint this wonderful era for those just
discovering it? This undermines the brilliance of the legends'
immeasurable contribution to popular culture.  For reference on the real
"rat pack", please refer to: "Ocean's 11" (1960), "Sergeant's 3" (1962),
"4 for Texas" (1963) and "Robin and the 7 Hoods" (1964). If you want to
feel the essence of the time, listen to the original music such as:
"Sinatra At the Sands", "My Shining Hour - Sammy Davis and Count Basie"
and "Dean Martin, The Capitol Years".

To the young audience: please continue to appreciate the original
material if you want to understand it, and watch the "Frank Sinatra
Spectacular for Dismas House" in April on TVLand. It's the real thing.

We will continue to strive for a National Right of Privacy and a Federal
Right of Publicity and pray that someday those who come after we are
gone will not have to suffer this indescribable mixture of anger,
sadness and impotence.

People deserve to be treated fairly, whether they are doctors,
secretaries, teachers, crossing-guards, presidents, homemakers or
legends. Nobody in this country should ever be made to feel like a
second-class citizen -- including, and especially not, Frank Sinatra.

He is the one who has fought all his life for fairplay and equal rights
for all people.

Hello.

I love Edmondo Ros' _Be In (Hare Krishna)_ so there!

>  les_'YperSound

Is it also a play on words with the city Ypres , also known as Ieper (pron:
Yayper)??
Is this a Belgian-influenced or produced record?

> Naive Hawaiian song question
Was it  _Hawaiian War Chant_ on that Old Navy commercial?
And wouldn't you rather have a young Marine?

I'm interested in the music (lotsa flute) on the Saturn ad with the
production line stop-action animation.
Anyone know what that is?  Are that many advertising creative department
Madison Avenue types into this music?  I hear it in advertising far more
than in any other aspect of American life.  Or is it merely a nice cheap
music to use?

Jim Nabors, N-A-B-O-R-S, was not the man-next-door type.
Oh how could he ever live down those vicious Rock Hudson gay wedding

Subject: (exotica) Yper top et superbon

>Who came up with the term 'les ypersound' from the >beginning?

I suspect that "Yper" is a cropped spelling of "Hyper" (pronounced
"eee pair". In France, the prefix "hyper" is used as a modifier before
adjectives (and sometimes nouns) to add emphasis. It's similar to the
use of "way" as in "way cool." Favoured among the rich young things of
the 16th Arrondissemnt, "hyper", "top" and "super" are the slick
American accoutrements of the Parisian adolescent patois, as in
"Gainsbourg, ah ouais, il est hyper top cool - superbon."

Subject: (exotica) light my fire

"Versions of "Light my fire".  Now we're talking"... Or at least that's
what I thought at first.  I had the feeling that every other record I
bought in the last year had some wild version of "Light my fire".  But when
I looked for them, I wasn't so sure anymore.I only found:
- -Bob Thiele and his Happy Times Orchestra on "Light my fire"...
(almost as long as the original version except the original didn't have
electric sitar)"
- - The Ventures on "Underground Fire"
- - The Enoch Light Singers  on "Whoever you are, I love you"
and the already mentioned version by Zacharias.
What?   Where's the Tony Mottola version?  Sandy Nelson?  Gabor Szabo?  AM
I going crazy?  I must have a Living Guitars version.  No?  How about the
Brass Ring?  Damn, I'm sure I've heard Lenny Dee copy that organ solo.
Maybe I'm going to have to start loading songlists into my computer.  (God
forbid.)
Or maybe I was thinking of "Fire".
I'd better start now, preparing my list for "Eight Miles High".  Uh, Bob
Thiele again, Soulful Strings... damn. I'm gonna have to organize these
things.

I can't believe this is an original album but I have the Billy Mure version
on a Spinorama album called "Hawaiian Moods" which is split with Luke
Leilani and his Hawaiians.

Subject: (exotica) Get Hip

Jim,

Shorty Petterstein 1st APPEARED on a Lenny Bruce record, though I'm not
quite sure 100% on that 1.
He is in reality Henry Jacobs.  Extremely weird and cool record in which it
seems to be as far as a few older guys I have talked with about it that he
is screwing with your head as if you were high on Pot or something.
It's pretty damn great, World Pacific 1957

Right, Del Close and John Brent

There's a compilation LP called "Swing For A Crime" that has a title by a
"Patsy Raye and the Beatnik's" called Beatnik Wish that is this female
spoken word piece over bongo drum and weird electronic keyboards and
plucking guitar.
I just scored the 45 by the Beatniks by the way, probably the only thing
they did but "Patsy Raye" isn't listed anywhere"
The flip side is a little more stripper-esque with blaring tenor sax and an
instrumental.

I just scored for myself;
Kenneth Patchen reads His Poetry With The Chamber Jazz Sextet
Don Morrow's Grimm's Hip Fairly Tales

The latter is almost exactly like early Jazzbo with totally cool beat jazz
and obviously tongue in cheek but un-be-lieve-a-ble like you NEVER heard
anywhere.

They are both easily $100+ records.
I've never seen the Don Morrow before and only have seen the Patchen twice
and both times were $150.00
It's on Cadence and certainly a masterpiece that I have never known the
likes of.

I may be getting in a Jack Kerouac-Poetry For The Beat Generation but it
would be around $125 if it's as clean as the guy says it is.
Interested at all ?

Glad your happy with your Bongo record:)

Jack

Jim,

Hello again.  Your e-mail here is so overwhelming it is difficult to
respond but I'll give it my best shot.

I am still NOT BURNED OUT on Nordine.  His thought and what he does/how he
does it just mesmerizes me so much to think to myself, how I talk, what I
say and how I say it.
He's such a big part of my consciousness in general, especially on the air.

I too am a vinyl addict and have spent lots of hours in the Capital Records
parking lot, the Pasadena record swap meet, Poobahs records, and Arons
records in LA.

Does the Capitol Records Parking Lot Swap Meet STILL HAPPEN ??????????

When I lived in LA in the late 70's I used to go there and it started at
midnight!  Does that still happen ?

Those were the days AND EVERYTHING THERE WERE BOOTLEG REKKIDS!

I remember AJA by Steely Dan had JUST come out and I bought a black t-shirt
that said "Steely Dan" AJA

It was a freakin' Steely Dan T-Shirt"
I've looked since that time but could never find it.  I probably gave it to
some chick I waas dating or some other absurdity:)

I have a whole basement full of LP's but I only buy CD's now.

Where do you live ?  I might be coming down to LA soon maybe you'd be
interested in selling some of them perhaps ?:-)

Maybe I could come by and look ??

 My wife doesn't have my same taste in music so I basically only listen to
music when I'm driving, 2 or 3 hours a day, or am on the internet playing
fighter pilot type games, 6 to 8 hours a day, once a week if I'm lucky.

BUMMER:-(

  We have similar tastes.  I'd love to trade tapes with you.

I *really don't* have any time to tape stuff I'm sorry to report.
My business has REALLY TAKEN OFF as here it is 8:30PM and it's the 1st time
today I have had NO BUSINESS to attend to and I wanted to reply to you:)

Here's my reissue CD;  http://www.jackdiamond.com/attilio.htm
"Attilio Mineo Conducts Man in Space With Sounds"

It's pretty damn cool and amazing I must admit.  It's totally outer space
in the truest sense of the phrase, it was piped into a ride at the 1962
Seattle Sate Worlds Fair called The BUBBLEATOR.

I know you would dig at least seeing the cover art:)  Man or Astroman stole
the cover for their very 1st LP release

I mainly have 60's and 70's psych and 70's through90's avante garde,
experimental, drone, free jazz etc.  I really like blues, 50's jazz, lounge
etc. but heck one can only collect and listen to so much, so I don't have
much in those categories.

I get VERY EXCITED over 1 record that I don't have.  So much of what I get
is for sale, OH!  I sell 99% records and some CD's, here;
Jack Diamond Music
http://www.jackdiamond.com

I just reissued these 2 LP's on 1 CD and the world is freakin' out over it
and buying it like crazy-it keeps me very very busy along with the rest of
the lists that I send out

  I'll try to listen to your show tonight!  Sounds great!  I live in the
mountains above Fresno and on a clear day I can see the Coast Mountains.  I
wonder if I got a big antenna from Radio Shack if I could get you direct?
Probably not.

I don't think so.  But you can on the internet and again, my show is
Sundays 10AM-1PM.  http://www.kfjc.org
Click on Internet Broadcast and see what happens

Ever heard William DeRidder,  Woorden, Blacklight Braille?

Nope

  Some of their stuff is pretty interesting.  Oh yeah, Alan Watts-This is
It, or something like that,  is really wild.

Nope

  I've always been interested in the beats but other than Keroak,
Burroughs, Cassidy, Ginsburg, I haven't heard a lot. In fact I can't even
spell their names right. I put your sites on my favorites list.  When you
get a chance drop a line.

Here I am:)

How about "The Wide Weird World of Shorty Petterstein" on World Pacific
from about 1957 ?

That's pretty screwed up wonderment.  I already mentioned that Kenneth
Patchen w/ The Chamber Jazz Sextet and the Don Morrow. Those are FOR
MEEEEEEEE:-)
I so rarely find anything for myself, like I said I get really excited

Del Close and John Brent-"How To Speak Hip" is pretty damn great and though
I really don't go for "comedy" records, I must admit that this is truly a
masterpiece.
Same with the Don Morrow disk

Then of course there's Rod McKuens "Beatsville" and I just sold a mono copy
of that for $25

>I almost forgot to mention something real exciting!  I got the phone
number for Snail Records from the internet but had trouble connecting so I
called Chicago information and called the number they gave me.  The guy
answered ''''studio" and sounded just like Ken Nordine!  So I'm thinking,
this must be some ultra fanatic Ken Noreen fan who has a little record shop
that carries all of Ken's radioshow cassettes, and is so into Ken that he
even sounds like him.  It turns out it was KEN himself!  He was real
friendly  and we talked about a few things and it was real interesting
because he sounded just like his records, same rich voice, inflections,
going off on weird possibilities.  It was great!  I wonder if when his wife
asks him if he wants bacon or ham with his eggs if he starts pondering
philosophical perplexities when he replies?

That's a really great story:-) People at the station say that I remind them
of Ken and wanted me to interview him a few years ago when "Colors" had
just been reissued.
They said it would be like 2 Ken Nordine's talking to each other.

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT!!! 'Cause there's ONLY 1 Ken Nordine, babe, is what
I told 'em and I ain't him!

But he only wanted to talk about the NEW stuff, what he's doing NOW and I
think that stuff is HOOOOOOOOOOOOOORIBLE HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORIBLE, down right
BAD, so I didn't do it.

I ONLY WANT to talk about the old days, THE GENIUS STUFF, not this drek

I'm sure you have "Colors" but I do have it for sale if you don't:-)

here is my two cents for the best covers of "Light my Fire" that i have
heard so far
Shirley Bassey from the "Something" album. very soulful, loungey and powerful.

and the Enoch Light Singers from an Enoch Light comp i have. i do not know
the original lp. very white (as opposed to Barry White), very souless, very
funny and scary version. a must.

runners up

John Andrews Tartaglia i heard from the Sound Gallery 2 comp. very wild,
swinging jazz a go-go instumental.
and of course the Residents from Third Reich and Roll. very sick and twisted.

i am very curious to know of more covers of this song since i like to do a
"light my fire" set in my dj'ing repertoire.

Are you familiar with the Nancy Sinatra version of "Light My Fire"?

It's on the "Nancy" album that has been reissued on Sundazed CD.

It is with lush orchestration and chorus I believe.

The same album contains "Son of a Preacher Man" and "Big Boss Man".

Something to behold.

There is a Julie Londeon Album called"Yummy yummy yummy" and it does
feature pop "choons." Don't know if it has LMF onnit or no.
This is one of the few records that I seek out specifically when I
cruise the stores. I only recently had a chance to hear the title track
and damn-near hurt myself larfin'. I LOOOOOOVE f@*$#d-up versions of
mainstream tunes.

Sonic Circuits VI
Electronic Music Festival

Connect with the circuit:
* Be on a CD of tape-works, broadcast around the world;
* Be on a roster and receive invitations to perform live;
* Have your video art seen across the US and abroad;
* Have your score realized by new performers;
* Produce your own festival event-our DIY kit will facilitate your programmi=
ng.

Just send in your electronic musical work (if you plugged something in to
make it, it qualifies - style no object).  Over 135 composers and artists
have been programmed since 1993.

Sonic Circuits, now in its sixth year, is a festival with a difference; it
comprises a caravan of curated works which travels the world to form the
basis for many events throughout the season.  Any musical works or acts
which involve electronic technology (e.g., works for electro-acoustic tape,
live performance with electronics, video art, new media art, sound art...)
may be submitted for program consideration.  The selected works are offered
to more than 20 venues across the globe and may be featured on the
highlights CD which is sent to numerous radio stations.

The CD, video-compilation, scores, and lists of live acts are sent in a kit
to each venue as a program framework, which may then be supplemented by
locally-produced material.

The Sonic Circuits season begins in October, 1998 and continues throughout
the year.  It is easy for you to host a leg of this international festival:
simply contact ACF for complete details.  Schools, theaters, lofts,
galleries, bars, construction sites, and courtyards have all been home to
presentations.
Minimum requirements: PA system, playback equipment (video projector and
lighting are desireable).  Pre-recorded program material will be sent to
you in October: mix it up with student work or live performers and you have
a show.

Submissions
Please submit one work for:
> Audio or video tape (NTSC format only);
> Works with a visual and/or live component (musical performers, computer,
>film, slides, dance, actors, etc.).
> Works appropriate for ISDN-, phone-line hook-ups, the internet,
>sound-sculptures or installations.
Entries will be reviewed by a panel of artists, technically knowledgeable
and familiar with a range of new-media issues and musical styles.

Eligibility
* Open to all artists worldwide.  American Composers Forum membership is
not required at the time of application but you are welcome to join, and
selected artists are expected to become members.

Selection Criteria
* Artistic quality of the work.  Sonic Circuits seeks to encourage
experimental and innovative uses of the particular medium;
* Technical quality of the work.  Skillful use of the technology will be
favored;
* Appropriateness of duration and format.  Programming considerations often
favor works less than 15 minutes duration, but longer works will be
considered.

Postmark Deadline       * July 1, 1998

THIS IS OUR FIGHTING and FIGHTING BACK PAGE.

It is a small forum compared to the media, but it is here and it
presents the truth.

Editorial

This editorial has not been seen by others in our family, but I feel it
is important to post it now. This is my opinion and I am not speaking
for anyone else.

Nancy Sinatra
March 9, 1998

THE MACHINE FEEDS ITSELF

The vultures are circling their own building in a short-sighted, cynical
attempt to cash in on a trend.

Entertainment Weekly is a Time Warner Publication. HBO is a Time Warner
company. The "Rat Pack" movie is being made for HBO. "Dino" and the
remake of "Ocean's 11" are at Warner Bros.

The spokespersons or publicists for the various producers involved, HBO
and Warner Bros are paid to generate publicity for these projects, all
of which fall under the same umbrella: Time Warner. The article
presented in the magazine is misleading, inaccurate and worse -
malicious. How dare Entertainment Weekly, a Time Warner company, malign
three gentlemen who have reaped hundreds and millions of dollars for
both the studio and its record labels. This is unconscionable!

Why is the Time Warner machine so ready and willing to desecrate the
images of three of the century's most prolific and gifted entertainers?

At least one of the movies, according to the dreadful script, is
obviously based on cartoonish, ill-conceived caricatures that would be
out of place even in a "Simpsons" episode.  This is clearly a case of
the Time Warner machine feeding itself.

The article is not only mean spirited, but an incestuous, underhanded
publicity stunt.

Considering the fact that all the "pack's" legitimate movies are under
one roof -- Warners' studios in Burbank, Warners is cheapening and
trivializing its own films.

It would be like Disney studios making x-rated versions of their classic
and cherished animated characters. Ironically, under the current laws,
this could not be done, because Mickey Mouse is protected. Frank Sinatra
is not.

In the article Dean, Sam and Frank are accused of being out of step with
the nineties -- and yet Time Warner is packaging and producing several
"high-profile" vehicles which showcase, and may destroy, their enduring
legacy!

More importantly, a whole new young audience has embraced lounge culture
and has a reverence for these larger than life folk heroes of the
Kennedy era. Isn't it sad that the images that will most likely be
presented in these projects will taint this wonderful era for those just
discovering it? This undermines the brilliance of the legends'
immeasurable contribution to popular culture.  For reference on the real
"rat pack", please refer to: "Ocean's 11" (1960), "Sergeant's 3" (1962),
"4 for Texas" (1963) and "Robin and the 7 Hoods" (1964). If you want to
feel the essence of the time, listen to the original music such as:
"Sinatra At the Sands", "My Shining Hour - Sammy Davis and Count Basie"
and "Dean Martin, The Capitol Years".

To the young audience: please continue to appreciate the original
material if you want to understand it, and watch the "Frank Sinatra
Spectacular for Dismas House" in April on TVLand. It's the real thing.

We will continue to strive for a National Right of Privacy and a Federal
Right of Publicity and pray that someday those who come after we are
gone will not have to suffer this indescribable mixture of anger,
sadness and impotence.

People deserve to be treated fairly, whether they are doctors,
secretaries, teachers, crossing-guards, presidents, homemakers or
legends. Nobody in this country should ever be made to feel like a
second-class citizen -- including, and especially not, Frank Sinatra.

He is the one who has fought all his life for fairplay and equal rights
for all people.
