Entirely possible, though Prado continued to perform his standards throughout
his career. I have a friend who grew up in Mexico during the 1950's-60's and
will ask if the show sounds familiar.

I'm waiting to hear back to see if he'll make a copy for me. Actually, I'd
really like to find a way to put some Prado footage on the website. But I'll
keep you posted about this one, too. BTW, I also have a lead on some Prado
footage from Peruvian TV circa 1964! My correspondent is a student in
Vancouver, BC, but we'll probably have to wait until August (when he returns to
Peru) to locate it.

Many of the LP and CD listings will be updated shortly. I just received another
PP discography from a researcher in Finland (but compiled by a scholar in the
UK) which fills in a lot of the info that I don't have about the CD's. I
suspect that the 11 or vols. from Japan are most everything Prado ever recorded
(at least on RCA), but the Tumbao Cuban Classics are musically the most
important in terms of his early work.
Stay tuned, kids! Dilo! Ugh!

Subject: (exotica) Re: Exotic Guitars
In the course of pointing out the lackluster quality of an Exotic
Guitars lp, someone referred to Justis's idea of exotic as combining
strings or something with a Duane Eddy twang. (Perhaps) Interestingly
enough, Justis's main axe-man was Al Casey, who did play with Duane Eddy
and the Rockin' (?) Rebels. Casey later gave a nod to the early 60's
surf craze with the release of "Surfin' Hootnanny (sp?)". Although I
have not heard this lp, friends who are fans of the genre assure me it's
quite good. I am not too fond of the couple EG's lps I own, but someone
made me a comp. tape recently which included a couple
of their songs which are quite enjoyable.

That's him. Peter Thomas was (and remains) an extremely prolific artist.
And yes, a lot of his easy listening material can be less than exciting.
It's his film music that really gets his fans heated up. Check out the new
Scamp CD "FUTUREMUSIK" [SCP 9724-2], due out this month.

Dear Cheryl, dear Robert,
Sorry for answering so late, I just returned from that Frankfurt Exotica
thing, which was a BIG success by the way - more than 800 people came!! And
yes, I can STRONGLY recommend Vol. 2. The selections on Vol. 2 are - in my
opinion - stranger and better than on Vol. 1 and I'm looking forward to the
future Vol's. Originally Laura and Gordon compiled three 90-minute tapes
that they gave to friends and some of the selections on these tapes are
really wild and should be on the future CD's.
Where did you get your Exotic Trilogy CD's? Are they hard to find in the
US/Canada?
Yours,
Nemo

There is a green mask from my childhood. I grew up listening to an album

Diplomat or Westminster. It seems to have been performed by a bunch of
college students and one of the tracks was called "Yow Cow Le"

From: Johan Dada Vis <Quiet@village.uunet.be>
Subject: (exotica) The Mood Mosaic: Les Yper Sound! / The Sexploitation
"The Mood Mosaic 4: Les Yper Sound!" is the best of the series, IMHO! A hip
mix of mostly uptempo, bright, optimistic, jazzy, funky 60's "now" EZ pop
sounds with a lot of soul, and a bit of bossa and other Latin influences
here and there. A couple of Hammond tracks, 1 "spy" track by Ken Thorne, 2
fun tracks with nonsense lyrics: "Sorry 'bout that" and Gary McFarland with
"Bloop bleep". Featuring Nilsmen, Stan Getz, Pete Moore, Jackie Mitoo,
Clark Terry, Shirley Scott, Oliver Nelson, Peter Thomas with "Jumpin' Jack
Flash", Enoch Light with "Bond street" from his "Sapced out" lp, Ann
Margret with an instrumental (!), Bill Plummer with another sitar track
from that elusive "Cosmic Brotherhood" lp, Don Sebesky...
"The Mood Mosaic 3: The Sexploitation":
Mostly funk, or funky heavy big band jazz. 5 funk tracks have a moaning
woman all over, like in the well-known "Amame" (love me) by Claudia Vita,
here in an Italian version, but the very same track also exists in English
by (French combo) Super Erotica. Also featuring Ray Brown, Roland Vincent,
Ingo Kantor, De Giaferri, Clay Pitts. The second best volume in this series
I have heard!

Subject: (exotica) Tiki Bar
Saturday, the Washington Post ran a front page story on the to do
involving the annual opening day of the Tiki Bar in Solomon (?)Island MD
(some land mass off the Bay, guessing at its name). Tiki Bar!? Local!?
Were my initial euphoric mental eruptions as the 1st cup of coffee began
do that thing that it does. Well, to cut to the chase, the article, like
so many others found in the Post over the past few years, was an
uninformative partisan bit of screed. We read all about the snobbish
reactionary ire of the locals, the uncivil urinary/mating habits of some
of the Tiki patrons and the curious spelling of Mai Tai ("My Tai")
employed there. But only a scrap were we given of the inner ambience -
some obligatory snippet about South Seascape paintings and artificial
palm fronds. What of the music? The menu? The perhaps fruit stacked
concoctions and the sacred idol mugs in which these may or may not be
served? I wonder if the pudenda who were responsible for that article
even bothered to visit the place. It reads like series of transcribed
phone interviews. Ok, I'll stop. Anyone ever been to the joint? Nate?
(yes, just because you're from MD, I automatically assumed.... ;). Is it
a dive worthy of pilgrimage?
Cranky and thirsty,
BW

Subject: (exotica) Tati - who is F.Barcellini?
As mentioned before there is an old soundtrack of Tati films, but that
doesn't help you today unless you find it on a fleamarket in Paris
anyway. It is called "Extraits des Bandes Originales des Films de
Jaques
Tati" and was a Philips label/phonogram distr. record, but they owe the
rights to Fontana. I have no idea wether there's something newer on CD.
I only know that the title melody of Mon Oncle is one of the most
romantic melodies ever composed. If you are a DJ: This is the perfect
last tune you play on an evening to escort people on their way home.
Try!
As the composer it says F.Barcellini for "Mon Oncle", first published
1958. For "jour de fete" we have Jean Yatove and for "Les vacances de
Mr.Hulot it is A.Romans. A certain F.Lemarque did the music of "Play
Time". I'd really like to know more about F.Barcellini. Anybody in the
list?

I don't think Peter Thomas is the german John Barry. But he's important
for Germany. The TV-sequel "Raumpatroullie" was pretty cool at that time
and so was the title song. It is all based on just one harmony by the
way...
Thomas is still very active and much wanted for the young techno
musicians generation in Germany for collaborations.

<<GOT IT! Unfortunately it's on very clean vinyl.

If you're a mixing virtuoso, or can digitize songs into a computer, one solution
is so sample scratchy ambience from quiet cuts or in between the cuts on a
crappy record. Then you can mix these sounds on top of your clean recording.
It sounds okay to the mere mortal, but a super vinyl freak can tell the
difference.
Plus, on the computer, or with your equalizer, you can filter out some of the
bass and give it that vintage nasal radio/victrola sound.
Lots of fun.
Which makes me wonder,
how many would by my hypothetical Warmilizer 2000 that you can attach to your
stereo that mutes some of the sharper digital artifacts and adds fake record
hiss and pop (amount of crackle completely adjustable) to make it sound more
like vinyl? I think if I invented it, I could sell a few, maybe...

My guess would be that the radio station is WFMU.
"Cheap Thrills", a record store in Montreal, Canada stocks the Trilogy cds
(& they have a mail order service) Their website can be found at

This may have been mentioned already, but there is a cd out on this title.
It is a French release and a friend of mine bought it for me when she was
in Paris. Also I have seen this cd in Tokyo at the HMV in Shibuya.

It worked. Free Moog is to die for!
And this is my introductory post, so allow me to introduce myself: my name
is Tom McCown (aka "Mysterious Mose", "Post-Modern Promiscuous" and "The
Dark Overlord of the Nattering Nabobs Of Negativity" - but you didn't hear
that from me.) My reason for subbing to this list is quite simply to
learn as much as I can from you all. I can enjoy most kinds of music
(excluding Rap and most Country Music) and in particular am trying to
hoard as much moog music, '60s psychedelic music, SCARY stuff (am dying
to find a copy of Hans Conried's "Monster Rally!") & etc & so on as I can.
Yadda yadda yadda I've bored you enough. :) Thanks for letting me play!

Okay, I'm out of my depth here but I'm pretty sure I had a Jack Marshall
record once that was in the same (gatefold) Mercury "Perfect Presence"
series that my Quincy Jones "Around the World" record is.
Maybe that's a clue.

Unless there's two records with that green mask, I've got it. It's on
Promenade and it's subtitled "All the excitement and mystery of the jungle
in high fidelity".
"Yow Cow Le" is one of the tracks.
On the other hand, my copy does have liner notes. As far as a group name,
the liner notes begin: "In the hands - literally "beneath" the hands of the
CAWANDA'S group - the basic drum rhythms have taken on a new substance"
It also says "Cawanda's group" on the record.
Some exotic Kiwanis club?
I actually have this record in my "music for occasional listening" section
as opposed to where I keep the cool covers so I must have enjoyed it.
I'd tape it for you gladly.

Unfortunately, I didn't find a booklet with mine, but the plastic case sure

Never seen 80 Drums Around the World on anything but the Ultra Lounge
collections, but then again, I've never seen Dean Elliot's LP.

The booklet is beautiful - it's only one half the width of the LP, so
you can see half the vinyl in all its naked glory before you buy. The
booklet is on very good high-cotton paper (like you'd waste on a CV),
with these sets of multi-coloured interlocking rings (like an Olympics
"trademark" rip off). Inside are descriptions of the various
artists/tracks, with cool diagrams of where the instruments are in the
stereo field. Hi-fi nerd heaven...
But the question remains - has anyone ever actually seen an "80 Drums
Around the World" LP, or is this some sort of sick Ultralounge inside
joke?

Keir

thanx, Lou & Toni, Awful music is indeed at
<http://redwood.northcoast.com/~shojo/Awful/awf.html>
the search engine i tried gave me a wrong URL...
I'm trying to keep my links page up to date and working, which ain't easy.
check it out: <http://bewoner.dma.be/Dada/> it's quite large!

calling all webmasters with reviews, audio
------------------------------------------
could the owners of websites with reviews or audio fragments of in-print
CDs/LPs please contact me? I'd like to include direct links to their pages
in the next version of The "eXotica Releases Overview".
So please, send me
1) the name of your site
2) its URL
3) a list of the artists: "titles" that are reviewed or have an audio fragment
i'll be first putting these into separate divisions in my links page, and
in my database, and as soon as i get more web space, i'll include them in
the XRO too (which, currently gobbles up half a megabyte!... it all started
with 1 humble page on Vik's welcoming Lounge, and look where it got me
now... i know it isn't exactly the most cool & swingin' web page, but i
think there's a need for such a discography...)
eXotica Releases Overview updates
---------------------------------
The XRO is updated about once every 10 days. those who are subscribed to
"D.E.N." (dada's electronic newsletter) get each update by e-mail. i
haven't posted these updates in the exotica list, becasue they're so
booooooooring (see exemple below), AND becasue they contain lots of
duplicates, i mean, cd's that were mentioned here on the list first; after
all, this list IS one of my sources for the XRO, you see.
If you want to see these updates in the exotica list, let me know.
if you want to receive them by e-mail, just send a "subscribe to D.E.N."
