                     *Dolores Jimenez Alcantara
    MADRID, Spain (AP) -- Dolores Jimenez Alcantara, one of flamenco's leading
singers, better known as ``La Nina de la Puebla'' (The Girl from Puebla),
died Monday. She was 90.
    She suffered a brain hemorrhage during a performance last weekend.
    The singer was given her stage name in recognition of her birthplace,
Puebla de Cazalla, just outside Seville.
    Blind from childhood, Jimenez dedicated herself to music from her early
years and in the 1960s and 1970s captured the hearts of flamenco artists and
fans. Admired for her ability to sing in a wide range of flamenco styles,
she was probably best known for popularizing the Spanish traditional song
``Los campanilleros'' (The Bell Ringers).
    She was to have received Spain's Gold Medal for Fine Arts from King Juan
Carlos next week.

Funny this should come up as we were puting together a show on wacky
Germans some weeks ago and I really thought we would include Heino.
I listened to my two Heino records (one pre and the other post "transformation")
and concluded that he isn't wacky at all, he's simply scary! Seems the majority
of this kind of music truly is, to be polite, an acquired taste... BUT, there
is some that is highly listenable and I would challenge anyone on the
this list to give a listen to the Motor label's Get Easy-German Pop Compilation
which is among my favourites anywhere!  And no, I receive no commision
from the German government for this...

I can only judge the band on the basis of the release I have ("High
Havoc"), which I thought was a very successful blend of now sound, pop &
funk. Similar in some ways to Mirageman or The James Taylor Quartet with a
real sense of fun (and some of the vocals have a nice sixties
Bacharachesque feel to them).

Don't know this one, but there is one song called, I

testosteronic hoot: "OONGH!," several times actually.
But no jodl, no humpa.

Personally, I agree Heino his uncanny self, is the
sort of ET who swoops down from the stars to abduct

Another weird phenom about this whole MUSIC OF YOUR LIFE format, is they
play stuff that's "too rockandroll" for an EZ format...I mean, I think Roy
Orbison, Simon and Garfunkle and Buddy Holly and others who supported the
"revolution" woulda turned my grandpappy's hair whiter back in the day...I
would think rock and pop like that, even on the soft side,would be anathma
to an EZ format.  I know "back in the day" on pop radio it wasn't unheard
of to find Sinatra back-to-back with a Stones song...but I still find such
combos strange...

Subject: (exotica) My first post, please be gentle...

Hi folks; I've been lurking on the list for about a month or so now, and
was looking for just the right opportunity to jump in and get my feet
wet, as it were.  Man, you guys are really *out there*!!  I'm just a
simple small-town gal (Mt. Vernon, WA) trying to get the local community
college radio station interested in my show, "Lady Crimson's
Loungability."  Lots of hoops to jump through, but I think it'll be
worth it-- this town desperately needs some fabulousness!!

Anyway, the recent copyright/lawsuit thread has provided me with an
opening at last.  While going through my collection with a view toward
developing some playlists, I discovered what may very well  be the basis
for a possible lawsuit!  If any of you have the following LP's, please
check out these tracks:

On the album "Sound Spectrum" by Shay Torrent at the Hammond Organ
(Mercury SR 60091, ?year?), there's a catchy little tune called
"Riviera," with the author credit going to Mr. Torrent himself.  While
listening, I thought it sounded remarkably like another tune on another
one of my discs.  After accessing the card file in my brain, I found my
copy of "Mallet Magic" by Harry Breuer and his Quintet (Audio Fidelity
Stereodisc AFSD 5825, 1958) and played the track "Maxixe Mambo," with
the author credit of Nazareth-Breuer-Frey.  The arrangements are
completely different, but after hearing them back-to-back, I came to the
inescapable conclusion that this is *exactly the same song*!!  I wish to
the Goddess that there was a year indicated on the Torrent disc, so we
could see which came first.  Can any of you folks shed some light on
this one??  Please tell me I'm not hallucinating.  At least not about
this, anyway.

Jane, I would *love* to get hold of the Astro-Slut disc, but since I'm
not actually on the air yet, it just wouldn't be fair to either of us.
I'll buy one off ya, though!!

That's it for now, kids.  Stay fabulous!

Shake hands with Spring Valley, NY.  A bustling metropolis of 20,112, or
so.  I live in metro Atlanta now (in a bustling communi...oh, you know
where that's headed!)

>On the album "Sound Spectrum" by Shay Torrent at the Hammond Organ

Well, I only have the Breuer LP, but this name struck me (Ooch!). Torrent
is immortalized on a blooper album called "The Naked Microphone" on Radiola
(all real bloopers, gang!  No Pat Harrington re-creations!) as two
announcers discuss what a peach of an organ he has.  So Torrent may have
done a few baseball games to help the income or that was his usual gig.

By the way, does anyone know the announcers in the aformentioned clip?

Sorry to be late on this thread. . . the one reason *I* hang onto that disk
is for the song "Polynesian," the only track on there that doesn't
completely peg the Sappiness Meter. I like that tune, and it always sounded
vaguely familiar to me. . .

Well duh--it's basically a real close relative of the song "Off Shore,"
which I just noticed this evening was *also* written by Diamond. So Leo's
stock has shot way up around here, since there are some really wonderful
versions of "Off Shore" out there. (The very restrained piano solo on Martin
Denny's version, from _Enchanted Sea_, is one of my favorite moments out of
Denny's entire career.) But it does raise the question, what was Leo up to
there? Same song, two titles? Desperate attempt to recreate an earlier hit?

I only noticed all this because I happened to be playing the Gene Rains LP,
_Rains in the Tropics_ (which also has a nice "Off Shore").  Unfortunately,
my copy is just about destroyed, so I rarely listen to that. But, thanks to
BasicHip, I was reminded that my thrashed LPs can actually sound OK on
that Newcomb school-issue record player, so I pulled it out again--and was
totally grooving on it, despite the crackles.

[For you newbies out there, it's time for Ross's semiannual "don't forget
Gene Rains" rant--whenever Denny and Lyman are mentioned, Rains should be
also. Where Denny was theatrical, and Lyman jazzy, Rains tended towards
mystery and moodiness, and was IMHO quite an interesting arranger.]

tropically,

This Sunday night, A&E's Biography has a two hour show on Brian Wilson...
shown over and over and over: 8:00pm, 10:00pm, Midnight, 2:00am (eastern).

Monday night at the usual 8:00pm and Midnight, they feature Connie Francis.

While at 10:00pm and 1:30am the same night, Bravo "profiles" Tony Bennett.

You also might want to check the movie "Danzon" on Bravo, Saturday

I also would be glad to buy one when it is ready!  I produce a show
which airs on a radio station, but it would make no sense to send one

They are probably still trying to keep that "back in the day" feeling with
those strange combos. I think that you are seeing more rock songs on those
stations now becuase they are starting to play things on the oldies stations
they never used to play like disco tunes from the late 70s and even some 80s
music, I hear very little 50s music on oldies stations anymore. Thats how it
is down here in Southern California at least. I think eventually all music
gets bumped onto an AM station after it reaches a certain age.

I have nothing to contribute on this controversy but that's a great record
and "Maxixe" is a true classic.  And welcome to the list.

Sorry, list,

But my mail programme crashed leaving me without lots of people's email
addresses and more importantly POSTAL addresses as I owe several of you
tapes and minidisks. If you are one of those people, give us a quick line
with your address.

Thanks!

Subject: (exotica) Baxter's Dunwich

I got another Les Baxter soundtrack yesterday - The Dunwich Horror. It is a
1970 soundtrack and Les was obviously still in his Helles Bells frame of
mind. This lp has a lot of big drums and that rocking pop combo sound
again. Being a horror film, there are a lot of eerie/disturbing moments on
the lp but those drums are deinately out in full force again. The cover has
that classic late 60s look and feel and it was still sealed when it arrived
- - I LOVE opening records that are older than me for the first time. Heaven!

And while I'm on the subject of Les Baxter, I heard a UK KPM library record
by him recently - typical exotica with african/tribal drumming etc etc. I
believe that it is one of a series he did for the label.

May I invite list members to the website of the David Letterman

collection.

Not exotica, but very exotic...

Especially the tradeshow soundtracks like "My Insurance Man"
and "My Lovely Bathroom"

I've seen KPM 1070 listed as "Bugaloo in Brazil" by Les Baxter.

BTW, does anyone know anything about the "Aristocrat" label? I have a
couple of releases by them, and know of one more. These are:

AR1021   When The Saints -- David Lindup and Big Band
AR1022   Guitar Fantasy -- Alan Parker
AR1023   Sounds Extravagant -- Johnny Pearson

It looks like Aristocrat was the commercial wing of KPM (i.e. issuing
library music for the public to buy). Certainly I recognise a couple
of the Lindup tracks from compilations ("Zodiac"/"French Kick"),
although they are listed under other titles on the LP.

Any clues? Anyone know of others?

if he wasn't exotic enough for you his late 6Ts music was kind of las vegas
grindish, cramps style cod psychedelic horror. elections will in all
probability not be the same in britain in the future. i wonder will a
massive surge of sympathy voting see them returned to the welsh assembly?
was it brought on by the stress of contesting the european parliament
elections? we shall probably never know.

This is sad news. I still love to listen my Sutch lps.
To me, the only two entities that kept the primal

Stooges and SLS.

Funny you should put it that way.  There is a festival being held Oct 29-31
and Sutch was to appear there.

The event is called the Las Vegas Grind!

Hello,

Is LSP-1753  a mono or stereo version?

Thanks

Yes. I know this because I have the LPM rather than
the LSP version, which is stereo and which I covet.

The only music I have from Pakistan is by Sohail Rana. Its a slightly =
progressive west meets east LP called Khyber Mail. Really great.

Listen to some of his (more recent but good nonetheless) works here:
http://www.business.carleton.ca/~mkhoja/Index2.htm

Under "petriotic songs" :) I tried
Jivay Jivay Pakistan...........(By Sohail Rana and group)=20

and
Yeh des hamara hai..........(Sohail Rana and group)=20

and
Sohni dharti allah rakhe.....(By Sohail Rana and group)=20

and
Tera Pakistan hai..............(Singer unknow)=20


Nothing extreme, but its good and fun and different.

Subject: (exotica) Mike Flowers Pops

UK people -- help us out!

I first heard of the Mike Flowers Pops in association with some Aphex Twin
thing a few years ago.  Never actually heard the music, but recall reading
that the MFP were an EZ/soft pop Brit band that everyone seemed to dismiss
as deadly dull and super cheesy (not in the good way).

Now fast forward to the present, when after seeing the Austin Powers
soundtracks being slagged, I actually gave them a quick listen at work.
One of the few tracks I actually liked was "Call Me" by the Mike Flowers
Pops.  In part, I suppose it's because I just like the song itself, but the
arrangement and rendition are really nice, albeit in a non-exciting but
appealingly bland way.

So what's up with the MFP.  Anything else to recommend them, or is "Call
Me" a bit of an aberration?  I even liked his voice!
