Subject: (exotica) re: Thunderbirds Are Go

Being cable free, I suppose I'll have to miss the movie... But I did get a
DVD set (1st 6 episodes) as a gift from a friend this last Xmas; funny,
amazing & bizarre at once, & odd to see how the high-res DVD rendered the
puppet (excuse me, Supermarionette) strings visible in a way unfamiliar to
my crappy b/w tv memories.
The Supermarionette-ified Shadows may also be seen hanging out on Lady
Penelopes 6-wheel Rolls Royce on the cover of the (possibly out-of-print)
best of CD on Scamp called "Shadows Are Go!," which also features their
excellent version of the theme.

qual...ANYhow, while it does
        feature the great music of Barry Gray, it doesn't have the
exact take of
        the "Thunderbirds" theme song, a mild harrumph.

        The DVD does have the original versions on it, most of the
time.  One of
        the episodes on the first set is redubbed (lost the old
soundtrack?).

        For those who haven't seen it, do.  The print that has been
hitting cable
        lately is very good.

Subject: (exotica) re: Tom Jones

I found the UK version of At-TOM-ic a couple years ago here, with Tom on the
cover superimposed in front of a mushroom cloud; too much for US
sensibilities, I imagine. (I somehow doubt this cover made it to the
japanese market either...)
I know the UK version doesn't have "Thunderball" or "Promise Her
Everything," tho it includes 4 more songs that aren't on the US version.
These first 3 US discs are easily my favorites, along with the later "Live
in Las Vegas," which I have a spare copy of for Jimmy B someday...

both 50p in
        charity shops.
        13 Hits - with Tom in a laurel wreath against a red
background has one side
        of sweet soul and one side of rocking motown-esq soul. What
a great find for
        50p. The rocking side is very upbeat, well arranged with big
horns, great
        bass, some proper instrumental pop drums and Tom not too
loud in the mix.
        I'd never put any of these on a comp (pure bigotry) but the
LP as a whole is
        fantastic.
        At-Tom-Ic I haven't listened to yet.

Subject: (exotica) Essential Logic

There was a mention (or two) on this list regarding Lora Logic. Well, it
seems she is recording once again and two songs are available as MP3s ("On
the Internet" and "Barbie Be Happy") and they are mighty fine indeed. You
can locate them at

http://www.peoplesound.com/index.htm

...search for "Essential Logic"

Happy listening,

Does anybody know this OST? Recommendations?

And apologies to those who asked about the Tom Jones 45 that was going spare
- - it was snapped up almost immediately by Michael.


Cheers.

Subject: (exotica) Bossa...the best

With all this talk of Bossa prices and Brazilans and the japanese, I
was wondering...what do you guys think are the best Bosa Nova LP's?
I LOVE the Bossa sound and would like to collect more of it and I'm
not sure where to begin.  Thanks guys.
