I share that. As a DJ, I sure would have played it as well. Didn't do
any live djing that night, though. But, in my first 1999 appearance
 on the RAI national radio broadcast which hosts me I straight
played it, in the brilliant Mike Flowers Pops edit.
Already waiting for the night I'll play "2001: Space Odyssey".

I have the Johnny Smith version too, and agree that it's a different kettle of
fish entirely.  But over here in the UK, The Ventures' version was itself
covered by a group led by a guy well known to this forum - John Barry.

The Ventures got to no. 8 in the charts, John Barry Seven got to no.11.
With all the live cuts and other covers over the years (The Challengers
did a quite good version, as did the recently mentioned LP Jerry Cole)
I expect the song has earned Mr Smith a good few dollars!

Anything known of Johnny Smith on CD please?  Is he still with us,
playing, recording?

    First time CD reissue of 1959 HiFi Record LP. "A unique look into
Beat Culture" it says. Includes 7 bonus tracks, 1 of which is the classic
"The Beat generation" by Bob McFadden & Dor=8A yes, McKuen =3D McFadden; and=
 an
embarrassing SINGING McKuen. Also includes 72 beatnik-style illustrations
in font format (Mac & PC)... and for me, that font was the most interesting
part of the cd. What a crap record. File under "folk". Or what else do you
call someone reciting poetry backed by acoustic guitar and flute? Where's
the beat, like in BEATnik? Where are the bongo's? And where's the beatnik
jazz? Not on this record, alas. Musically totally forgettable. I prefer any
of his 4 collaborations with Anita Kerr and The Sebastian Strings ("The
Earth/The sea/The sky/Summer"). For McKuen's poems' fans only! Another
overrated record, but that's just my opinion... luckily, i never "found"
the original lp at collectors price ;-)

 Oh, yes, it was certainly the Isaac Hayes version you spoke of!  I haven't
been able to rip Hot Buttered Soul off my stereo in a year!

Well, I suppose I have removed it long enough to get a little sumthin' else
in...a few digests back there was a DICK HYMAN thread, about his records
being mighty mighty or insanely bad.  We all know his 2 moog lp's rock out,
but let me put my vote in for EASILY the best Hyman I've heard apart from
those two, even on par with them:  FANTOMFINGERS (1971, Project 3)....WOW.
Subtitled "Dick Hyman Rocks The New Baldwin Organ", it is a funky goofy
fantastic record.  He squeezes remarkably moogy sounds out of the organ,
and he even clocks in a nine minute long SEQUEL toThe Minotaur!!  I can't
recommend this album more highly to anyone who loves the Electric Eclectics
or Electronicus albums.  It's my desert island find for the last month's
shopping!

This list is great...keep all your ears open!

It's not the musicians -- it's the mega-corp media conglomerates. They
might *say* they're doing it to protect their dear artists, but yeah, sure.
As I've been saying (in my best Chicken Little voice), their lucrative,
pipeline-controlling middleman role is threatened by the new technologies
and they're currently on a tear with lobbying and litigation to maintain
their power. They've already bought a law which gives the RIAA a skim from
net radio. And besides trying to restrict new technology, they're lobbying
to get personal use taping outlawed and eliminate the "fair use" principle.
Um, I can't seem to find the pertinent news link now -- but hey, you know
everything you read on the net is true, right? ;o)

The latest trend seems to be artists posting their own MP3s to the web,
followed by the record company shaking legal papers and demanding their
removal (Public Enemy, Beastie Boys, Billy Idol). It's a regular love-fest.

Are there any legal-minded folks on here who might explain exactly what
"fair use" is? I'd like to know before it gets taken away.

Bamalama? It's the A-side of Destruction, in fact almost the same song; 1978.
Or Black Is Black, 1977? I posted a bit about them a while ago and tried to
find out more, but there was not much I could dig out. They were apparentely
from France and there is a Russian(!) homepage about them. The sound of
Bamalama is pretty amazing for '78. Almost techno, very wild. Predates even
Liaison dangereux....
Another single was Jump Down, but it doesn't sound as if it was a big hit.
Belle Epoque only existed for 2-3 years.

I first saw it mentioned in one of Chuck's postings a few months back.
It's available by mail order from Other Music in New York, and as I was
placing an order with them anyways...

It's a New York group (or person - there aren't any credits on the CD),
and pretty much looks like it was put together in someone's basement.
The CD is actually one of those blue recordable numbers (which doesn't
play well on my CD player), and the CD liner appears to be a colour
xerox.  That said, it's samples galore, and a lot of fun to listen to.
It was very reasonable (about $12 US) and highly recommended!  Does
anyone else on the list know anything about Ursula 1000?

Subject: (exotica) The Mystic Moods

IF and only if you are into the sound of John Andrews Tartaglia, you'll
probably also enjoy two Mystic Moods Orchestra LP's that I recently picked up.

"Emotions" and "Extensions" are both arranged and conducted by Tartaglia.
Both have the same sound as his own "Good Morning Starshine" and "Tartaglian
Theorem".

Paul Beaver on moog, real-life sound effects (Brad Miller) and interesting
instruments such as novachord, harpsichord, harp and calliope.  The Mystic
Moods Singers of course and the rest of the orchestra.

I have always shyed away from Mystic Moods albums, assuming they were true
easy listening.  Not so with these two. These are complex, challenging
recordings and a long, long way from elevator music.

I'd recommend picking up those Living Jazz, Living Brass and Living Guitar
records, too.  There is some damn good music on those records!

Subject: (exotica) Recent finds - standards

Only a few mentions from the Christmas period:

1. Dick Hyman's Eclectic Electrics. What can I say, it's an exotica-list
standard. Moog, moog and more moog. This one has just been bootlegged in
London and whoever has done it has added extra tracks, ruined the cover art
and produced a record that costs more than the original cost me.

2. Enoch Light's Spaced Out. Bond Street's cool, the rest complements it
nicely, top cover to boot. What's with all that left and right stereo
channelling crap?

3. Nico Gomez and his African Percussion - Ritual. This is  a reissue and
it's superb. Mandingo meets the aforementioned Incredible Bongo Band.
Pounding african drums - Excellent.


And I had a phone call on Saturday from Kevin the record collector saying
he's just come across 1000 KPM library records. The list is on its way.

Subject: (exotica) A Twangful New Year

On going to bed yesterday I zapped right into a Hellecasters
concert on German TV (Peter Gunn, not as good as I would have
liked it to be, but surprising all the same), so I poured myself
another glass of my favourite spirit and got into my comfy chair.
A lineup of three lead guitarists is quite unusual (I only
remember Lynyrd Skynyrd, apart from the John McLaughlin, Al
Dimeola, Paco Pena trio and various other combinations, but they
played acoustic instruments and without a rhythm section),
certainly when they display a mastery and congeniality like those
three. After a short intermezzo (forgot the title) they closed
with Orange Blossom Special, the longest (20 minutes), the fastest
(the poor drummer, I assumed, until I saw a close up of him smiling
from ear to ear with no apparent signs of strain or distress) and
the most virtuoso (sat in awe over the variety and subtlety of play,
for instance, the Italian type, what's-his-name, had a ring on the
phalanx of his index finger which enabled him to throw in all sorts
of short slide effects, and I wonder how much further can one bend a
string than the Scandinavian type, what's-his-name, did), I've ever
heard. There had to be an encore, ofcourse, and they announced it,
I thought, as F****** Fish, which later appeared to be A bucketful
of Fish in the subtitles. Neither way I'm going to comment on that.

Cheers, Ton

I once mentioned an LP that I picked up by Michel LeGrand on Philips
called: Michel LeGrand Plays for Dancers (The Frug, The Twist, The Monkey
etc.) and I rated it very highly. I have recently received some pertinent
information which demands note on this list.

Michel LeGrand Plays for Dancers is actually Violent Violins. I now know
this after a record I scored called French Fried on the Living Presence (I
think) label had track listings for several other sister LPs. It's
excellent and features De Gue Ding and Come Ray and Come Charles.

I haven't been keeping track), single person, not a group. His name is Alex
something-or-other, he is a good friend of my roommate.

Ditto. This has got to be one of Dick's cooler LPs, and really rather rar=

I was told by the record store  that this cd will not play well at all
on older cd players.  The record store was nformed by the artist of
this fact.  What a shame.  I wanted to record it for another lister to
hear and it kept skipping on my old cd player at home.  It plays fine
on my 1998 cd player at work which is where I normally listened to it.

I ended up staying at home with my little 2 year old who caught strep
throat, (she's doing fine now).  With piles of cds all around me on
the couch up came the just opened Stereo Total cd.  A very tough and
cold way to enter the new year.  I liked the album a lot though,  and
for some reason it reminded me of the Flying Lizards lp.  Maybe it was
the wine.

Also mucho thanks to all the posts about the Starbucks Christmas cd.
It really has some gems on it and its now for sale for $8.99.  Get it
before its gone.

I have a DJ copy of Permissive Polyphonics....on the record label
itself, one of the previous owners marked out the entry for "Marrakesh
Express" (sp?) with a permanent marker :-). It is a wild record indeed.
Lots of sitar action too.

How strange - mine is a DJ copy too!  Wonder how many of those
were sent out - and how many DJs gave it any airplay!

Aside from the Free Design records, I think it has to be my
favourite Project 3 LP...

====================================================
Depp's Nightspot Reopening

Johnny Depp's Sunset Boulevard nightclub, the Viper Room, is
reopening after an interior makeover. Nancy Sinatra put on a
New Year's Eve show there, and the grand opening is set for
Jan. 9. The club, which gained a degree of notoriety when
River Phoenix died outside of it in 1993, has been closed
for renovations since mid-November. The reopening will be a
benefit show featuring an acoustic performance by Courtney
Love. Proceeds will go to the nonprofit yoga-teaching
organization Center for Living.

* In other news of celebrity charity, "Hollywood Goes Wild,"
an album with songs by all-star actors, will benefit the
Wildlife Waystation, a sanctuary for wild and exotic animals
in California. Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt, Bruce Willis, Will
Smith, Jeff Goldblum, Kim Basinger, Billy Bob Thornton,
Keanu Reeves and Juliette Lewis can be heard on the album,
which the Boston Globe says will come out early this year.
The executive producer, Ron Lovely, says he got the idea for
the album after meeting Pitt at a birthday party for
legendary musician Les Paul last year. "Brad is a huge music
fan," Lovely said.

These are live performances in Real Video and Real Audio.  The
Cornelius stuff is shocking by the amount of heavy metal mixed in. I
heard Cornelius was like this live.  It doesn't boad well for his next
album or his influence on Japanese club pop.

Subject: (exotica) I'm gonna DO it!

Alright... This is it!  I'm gonna get off my ass and finally DO IT!  No more
talkin'!  Just DOIN'!

I AM GONNA GET ME A PERFECT VINYL COPY OF SOMETHING AND BOOTLEG THE LIVING
HELL OUT OF IT!! (I thought of couching it in more euphomistic terms, but
that's what it boils down to, dangling participle and all!)

The big difference is that I will make very little profit, probably just
enough to pay for the rekkit. So the next question (did I day no more
talking... Okay a little more talking) What record would you like to see
Made available? The perfect candidate will be desirable, but not TOO
mainstream, Rare, but not too obscure. I would feel better about this if the
copied work was something intractibly unreleasable due to some petty
niggling among lawyer types... That would make this something of a
"liberation." Though  I will not admit to anything more noble than a
lazy-man's re-reissue.

I've been seeing a lot of neat two-fer cd bootlegs.. I might consider doing
that.. Makes good use of the CD medium and can be priced fairly even if only
one title on the disk appeals to the buyer. Want to keep the cost at about
$15.00 including shipping TOPS, but will keep the price MUCH lower if I can.
The main cost is the printing, and I won't skimp on liners and cover art.

Love to hear from you...

A little nervous about his one, but pressing send.... NOW

I cast my vote for "Adventure In Sound" by Danny & Dena Guglielmi- at
least i don't THINK this has been officially bootlegged yet........
