NEW YORK (AP) _ Evel Knievel says celebrities should enjoy their  fame.

``You can be famous for a lot of things,'' the daredevil says in  the July
Esquire magazine.
``You can be a Nobel Prize winner. You  can be the fattest guy in the
world. ... Whatever it is, enjoy it.  It don't last forever.''

Another pearl: ``Heaven is a place you can go and drink a lot of  draft
beer and it don't make you fat.''

``You can cheat on your wife and she don't get mad. You get a  beautiful
female chauffeur ...
There are motorcycle jumps you never  miss. You don't need a tee time.''


or, in the words of Johnny Termain:
"Bitch, fame has a PRICE"
Jane Fondle

Subject: (exotica) Spinner server

Anyone tried this music service, http://www.spinner.com   ?

The way I understand it, you download their 'player' and then hook up to
their server for continuous mixes of music in over 100 styles or
channels, including one lounge channel.  The offerings are diverse and
numerous and fairly specific.  Sounds pretty cool, if only I had
speakers and a sound card!

Unrelated P.S.  An encore presentation of Terry Gross's interview with
John Barry is on NPR's Fresh Air radio program today, also undoubtedly
available on their website.  There's some talk about the J. Bond
soundtracks, esp. Thunderball, that is pretty funny.

Dear Exotics:

 I've got 2 weeks to find Baxter's HELL'S BELLES soundtrack and the Club
Morricone comp.  They ain't in San Francisco record stores and I can't find
any in stock after a cursory search on the web.  Can anyone suggest a site
that might have these ready to ship now?  LP or CD.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Subject: (exotica) Burt & Elvis, Baby!!

I saw "Austin Powers, The Spy Who Shagged Me" yesterday.  In among the
expected silliness, some groovy tunes (excluding Madonna, badly trying to
sound like Shirley Bassey, at least I think it was Madonna) and the
Barry-esque soundtrack bits was something compleatly different.  It was Burt
Bacharach and Elvis Costello dueting on the former's "I'll Never Fall in Love
Again,".  It's not just part of the soundtrack, but Mike Myers turns to the
camera and introduces them and they do the song.  It was quite cool and was
the cherry on the proverbial Ice Cream sundae, or should I say, "The cherry
love lotion on someone's naughty nibblies, BABY!"  It's a silly, silly film.

I'm with you - I got a free copy , listened to it andpromptly gave it to the

plot (Austin's "mojo" is stolen), why didn't they use "I Got My Mojo Workin?"

Subject: (exotica) how to protect AND ruin a cd

the most vulnerable side of a cd is not the mirror-like side, but the
printed side. the digital data is hold in a very thin aluminium layer, and
is protected by a layer of plastic at the bottom side, but NOT so on the
printed side. there it is only "protected" by a sort of ultra-thin paint
layer, with the print on it. the good news is that you can buy protective,
transparant adhesives to put on top of the printed side. the bad news is,
that you should never try to remove such an adhesive. i just did. and i
yelled "aaaaaaaaarrrrrrggh nooooooooo!" when i watched how a piece of the
aluminium data layer (incredibly thin) came with it. the cd of course is
ruined. AND deleted and rare. i had just burned a copy of it, lucky me ;-)

Subject: Fw: Message Bounce: Re: (exotica) Burt & Elvis, Baby!!

 Howdy,
     From what I've heard the Shirley Bassey-esque song ("Evil is His
Name"?)
was ghosted by They Might Be Giants and the vocals was by the girlfriend of
one of the guys. Madonna's song is actually entirely lame (as opposed to an
intentionally lame Bassey Knockoff) and called something like "Strange Love"
and is what they play during Power's late night lonely drive.
     I'm rather ambivalent about it all. Some stuff worked, but if I wanted
extensive, and dumb 90's humor I'd watch any of the other Lorne Michaels
comedy trainwreck. I didn't expect the OST to be any good this time out (the
whole movie reeks of mediocre product placement, especially with the
music--Lenny Kravitz covering American Woman? What qualifies him? His velvet
suit?)
     I would have preferred FatBastard stay on the cutting room floor (along
with half of MiniMe's schtick) and have more scenes with #2 and Scott Evil
(who was originally going to fall in with the Black Panthers after dating an
Angela Davis type's daughter in an early draft of the script).
     Heather Graham was really cool but not in a 60's type of way. Lack of
any psychedelica (or any actual sex other than FB's moment o' shame-ugh) was
a major disappointment.

Exactly.  It works fine.  I've listened to various channels and they seem fine

Is this a list of things you bought or new things you've never heard of? I'm

I was lucky enough to catch this the first time around. Barry gives some great
background to the writing of the Bond soundtracks, great anecdotes. And it's
worth it if only for this outrageous version of Goldfinger sung by Tony Newly.
The way Newly  delivers the song drips with sleaze.

Yeah - I agree. The soundtrack CD is a complete piece of corporate crap, and
upon hearing it, I experienced the sickening feeling that this movie might
be a real letdown for all of the spy spoof a go-go aficianados among us.
Thank God most of the tracks on the soundtrack CD are not featured in the
movie. The only ones I remember hearing are the Bacharach/Costello number
and a cool segment of Espionage by Green Day during a car chase. And I liked
how certain classic soundtrack cues were quoted in some segments - during
Austin's chess match with Ivana Humpalot the music is practically a
note-for-note re-creation of Michael Legrand's music in the chess match
scene from The Thomas Crown Affair; John Barry's Space March is used for Dr.
Evil's phallic space rocket, and I think I heard You Only Live Twice for the
exterior shots of Dr. Evil's secret volcanic hideaway. The opening tune is
very Bassey-esque, indeed. The CD could have been a lot better if only the
suits at Maverick had a frickin' clue.

in return for CDR or MD copy of something i'd like. send suggestions or ask

Highly hilarious variation on the Singing dogs gimmick: dogs, cats, sheep
and chicken bark, meow, bleat and cackle your favorite Beatle tunes, backed
by a sixties drums & guitar combo. As featured on the 2 "Exotic Beatles"
compilation CDs.

in case you wonder: who the f... are the Beatle barkers: to be correct:
"Beatle barkers" is the title of the lp, the band is called the Woofers &
Tweeters Ensemble. from the 70's.

El Santo (not Sonto) movies can be ordered from Sinister Cinema. They have a
website. There's also a very fun zine called _From Parts Unknown_ which
focuses on masked wrestlers (mostly Lucha Libre from Mexico).

This one is great fun! I bought my copy from Johan 2 years ago, but =

They've gotten harder to get in the last couple of years (in the US).
You're going to think I'm joking, but the reason has to do with the North
American Trade Agreement (or whatever it's official name was). There was
some sort of clause in there that had the result of cutting off legitimate
distribution of vintage Mexican cinema on video (don't ask me the
details... I don't know and I'm no lawyer). Something Weird and Sinister
Cinema were both forced to drop a bunch of movies. Something Weird even had
a close-out sale before the deadline. But I'd guess if you pick up some
psychotronically focused movie magazines you'll be able to find ads from
some underground dealers who are persisting.

If you already have Nightmare or Shock Music In Hi-Fi, then I suppose you
could do without (depending on the price).

But if you don't have these dark, dirty, rotten, stinkin' pieces of nervous
jazz (i mean that in a good way) mixed with screams and other sounds of
horror, then you let a good one slip by.

Subject: (exotica) Prado-rific record finds

For whatever reason, this was the weekend for finding
Perez Prado records.  They're all fantastic...

"Our Man in Latin America" RCA

My favorite of the bunch.  Even in mono it sounds
great and his version of "Tico Tico" is the best I've
heard.

"Now! Twist Goes Latin" RCA

The organ in "Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White -
Twist" is crazy!

"Estas si Viven/The Living End" UA Latino

The most now sounding of all of them.

"Pops and Prado" RCA

I could do without "Heigh-Ho" but great otherwise.


I also picked up Leo Diamond's "Subliminal Sounds" on
ABC-Paramount.  Does anyone know if there was
originally an object glued to the center of the front
cover?  There's a tear on the copy I bought and the
liner notes make reference to a "blinking orb" on the
cover.  Thanks.

Regards,

Mark

What's really disappointing about Mike Myers blowing it on the soundtrack
is that it's obvious that he does know the period he's spoofing and knows
the music of that period.  It's not like he's clueless about it and this is
the best he can come up with.

I find it even more disappointing because I vaguely know Mr.Myers brother,
a musician whose music has a very very Beatle-esque sixties pop sound to
it.  It kind of botheres me that he doesn't give his brother a shot at
these soundtracks but even if they've somehow worked that out, still with a
brother like that so steeped in that music, there's no excuse for him
missing the point.

Not that I'm surprised he turns out to be a bit of a corporate sell-out.

Subject: Re: (exotica) They're Really (Soft) Rockin' In Boston

In the continuing soft rock saga..
"Joyfull Noise".  I think I knew this band and something told me "Don't!".
ON top of that, it was more than five bucks.
But I went for it anyway.  Song titles like "Animals, Flowers and Trees",
"Puppets and Pearls" and "Wrapped in the Hide of a Yellow Cow" - no kidding
- - got the better of me.
On first listen, not only does this not fit my soft-rock requirements, I
don't know what the #$%^ it is.   It might be weird or it might just be
horrible.
At the same time, for a buck I picked up this thing called "Dry Dock
Country".  It has a badly done cover and they cover "Mr.Soul" is all I knew.
But this insert tumbled out when I got home.  A poster of the band on one
side and on the other side, "liner notes" by the producer Wes Farrell
(Okay, who is he again?)
He states that he's used the band as backup vocalists on records by The
Cowsills, The Everly Brothers and Neil Sedaka.  Who knew the Cowsills or
Everly's used backup singers.
Anyway, this is not the discovery of the month or anything.  And it's a bit
too "seventies" for the genre.   But when I eventually make JimmyBee a
"soft rock compilation", somewhere on it will probably be D.D.C's "Nothing
to lose but my mind", a pretty obvious Beach Boy's ripoff.  Or their very
very weird cover of the Stones' "Last Time".

Will it ever end?
