LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Daniel Adrian Carlin, an Emmy-winning music editor who worked with soundtrack composers Lalo Schifrin and Ennio Morricone, died Aug. 14 of complications from lung cancer and pulmonary fibrosis. He was 73.
Carlin edited the music for ``Scorpio,'' ``The Outlaw Josey Wales,'' ``Ghost,'' ``Gorillas in the Mist,'' ``Dead Poets Society'' and ``Cliffhanger.'' He won a music-editing Emmy in 1987 for his work on the miniseries ``Unnatural Causes.''
He was founder in 1972 of La Da Music. Now known as Segue Music, it is considered the leading film and television editing company.

Subject: Re: RE: (exotica) bedazzled OST sighting
I am not convinced that the current Harkit "Bedazled" is really a
bootleg, although I have variously heard that Dudley Moore owns
the copyrights in the recorded works exclusively, number one;
and that Harkit is now in new hands and is more than a bootleg
label, number two.
I can tell you that the artwork on the Harkit does not appear to be
bootleg (as in, shot from an album cover); I can also tell you that
the release comes with some good notes which include a real
live address for Harkit, and the names of those who mastered
the release. This is where it became odd for me personally.
The names of those credited with the mastering job are Freek
Kinkelaar and Raymond Steeg. I know both these people. They
are, variously, neighbors and sound techs for the Dutch & British
band Legendary Pink Dots. Freek (pronouced FRAYK) has a
sound collage project called Beequeen which usually distributes
its CDs through Staalplaat Distribution. Steeg is an experienced
and creative sound engineer who has also mixed Hawkwind on
some recent tours. How the two of them came to this Harkit
project, however, I have no idea.
So while I don't claim to understand the whole background of the
current Harkit "Bedazzled" OST, I can tell you that Steeg and
Kinkelaar are not the sort of people I would associate with
bootleg projects.
Hope that helps a bit !

That's the 18 month old Harkit bootleg I believe. A nice pressing
but I
don't think much of the artwork is original. Anybody know?

I thought the same, and maybe they bear a strong resemblance, but there are
three that I like more than any Ray Conniff LP I've come into.
1. LP ROSES & RAINBOWS: Yes I'm Ready/Summer Wind/Theme From A Summer
Place/Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me/Unchained Melody/Roses & Rainbows/Heart Full
of Soul/Save Your Heart For Me/Cara Mia/Houston/What The World Needs Now
2. LP DON'T LOOK BACK: Don't Look Back/Never My Love/Rainbows/Land Of
Love/Come Softly To Me/To Sir With Love/Instant Happy/Windy/The Singing Bird
Will Come/Love Of The Common People
3. LP WE CAN FLY!: Up Up and Away/Somethin' Stupid/I Got Rhythm/Portrait of
My Love/Go Where You Wanna Go/Dedicated To The One I Love/Yellow
Balloon/This Is My Song/Monday Monday/Release Me/Joey is My Name
As the titles indicate, many selections they cover are already soft rock/pop
favorites or mellow soul gems. The titles IMHO are a cut above the common
selections of most of the mid-late 6T's groups of the Johnny Mann variety

I've owned some mediocre ones but I would say probably most of her records
are pretty good. And the reason is that unlike say the later Ray Conniff
singers, she actually arranges the vocals. There are harmonies. This may
be because as far as I can tell, there are only four of them.
Some of her records even rise to the level of soft pop. Which might be
considered a fall in the eyes of some, I suppose.
As far as the Johnny Mann singers go, I agree that they're above average.
But not for the same factors that "elevate" Anita.
I like Johnny Mann because the vocals are usually soft and quiet Even
mellow.. I'm not sure there's much harmony going on but in a sense, what I
like about these records is the absence of the things that usually bother
me with these records. The annoying enthusiasm. The resemblance to your
worst high school choir nightmares. The Up With People factor.

I recommend you rethink your rethinking.
I'm not saying they don't do justice to the odd tune. I have some
"affection" for their version of McArthur Park.
And far be it from me to cast aspersions on anyone's taste, especially when
this entire area of music we're discussing here is so.... uh... questionable.
You know, when you're debating whose interpretation of Dylan you prefer,
the Doodletown Pipers or the Living Voices, it's a bit late to talk about
taste.
Having said all that, I think the Ray Charles Singers as well as the Enoch
Light Singers - except their version of "Hello I love you" - basically suck
and the Percy Faith singers are not much better (even though Percy is
brilliant) and in fact almost all the groups with Singers at the end or
their name, sucked in the sixties.
If you want to buy that kind of stuff from the sixties, I say try the
Lettermen. And of course the Sandpipers. And the Primo People if you can
find them.
Having said that, the Johnny Mann singers do kind of blow a hole in my
theory. So you have to check for yourself I guess.
Some other exceptions to the rule I've found are The Art Gallery", "the New
Generation" and well above average are "The New Classic Singers" and "The
Midas Touch".
Oh by the way my favorite Anita records were, I think, "Sounds" and "All
you need is love".
(I put all this stuff on CDR. I don't have the records anymore.)

Subject: (exotica) DJ session - "In Hi-Fi" in NYC this Thursday
Hi,
On Thursday (September 13th), I will be the guest DJ this month at the "In Hi-Fi" party at Bar d'O in NYC (it's on the corner of Bedford and Downing Streets, close to Houston and 6th Avenue in the West Village). There is no cover.
I will be on from 10 until 11.30pm (as 'DJ Psychedelicado'), spinning "a scintillating mix of cinematic easy listening, pop, and Brazilian sounds from the late 60s and early 70s." Also spinning are the excellent regular DJs (and former listees), Anita 'The Meat Mistress' Serwacki, Jack Fetterman and Scott Springer.
