Found a few Sergio Mendes albums on Saturday.
If you ever come across Equinox buy it. Its fantastic! Now I know what
everyone is talking about.
Also by Mendes: Look Around. Very good with their rendition of The Look Of
Love. Crystal Illusions, not as good as the other 2 put still up their. And
a solo album by Mendes: The Beat Of Brazil. wonderful Bossa Nova.
Peter Nero: I Gotta be Me. Thanks to DJJimmyB for always mentioning this
album. Listened to the side with Soulful Strut. the perfect easylistening/
now sound album. Tonight I'll get to side 2.
Pat Suzuki, self titled album, she is called Miss Pony Tail on the back
cover, the Flower Drum song girl. Orchestration by Henri Rene. the whol
album is a killer. That over the top orchestral-almost swinging sound with
gusty vocals. Her version of Daddy can be found on Sex Kittens in Hi-Fi-The
Brunettes.
Also found Stereo Impact Sound Torrid Trumpet! My expectations were high on
this one so I was a little disappointed. It did not hive the BIG sound I
was expecting.

Subject: (exotica) [obits]Charles Lowe,Marguerite Chapman,Peter Gilman, Allen Funt,Barry Shipp
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Charles Lowe, who guided the career of actress Carol Channing during their four-decade marriage, died Thursday. He was 87.
Lowe and Miss Channing, 78, separated last year after she accused him of mismanagement. The two were estranged at the time of Lowe's death, publicist Alan Eichler said.
A native of Steel City, Neb., Lowe served in the Army during World War II. After the war, he went from advertising executive to producer of the 1950-58 ``The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show'' on CBS.
He and Miss Channing married in 1956 and Lowe focused his attention on her stage career. He also produced five network TV specials with his wife, including ``An Evening with Carol Channing.''
In May 1998, Ms. Channing filed for divorce.
Saturday, September 4, 1999; 7:59 p.m. EDT
Marguerite Chapman
BURBANK , Calif. (AP) -- Marguerite Chapman, who starred in a series of World War II movies and later as a secretary in Marilyn Monroe's film the ``The Seven Year Itch,'' died Tuesday. She was 81.
From 1940 to 1943, Ms. Chapman appeared in 18 movies, ranging from Charlie Chan comedies to armed services booster films as a member of Warner Bros.' singing and dancing Navy Blues Sextet.
Ms. Chapman was eventually cast as a leading lady in ``Destroyer'' with Edward G. Robinson and Glenn Ford and in ``Appointment in Berlin'' opposite George Sanders.
After the war, she continued to win leading roles in such films as ``Relentless'' opposite Robert Young and ``The Green Promise'' with Walter Brennan. But by the 1950s, Ms. Chapman had slipped into supporting roles, notably as a secretary in ``The Seven Year Itch'' in 1955.
Ms. Chapman had top billing again in her final film, ``The Amazing Transparent Man'' in 1960, but the film was critically panned.
As Ms. Chapman's film career waned, she made guest appearances in television series including ``Richard Diamond, Private Detective,'' ``Rawhide,'' ``Perry Mason,'' ``Hawaii Five-0'' and ``Marcus Welby, M.D.''
Peter Gilman
HILO, Hawaii (AP) -- Peter Gilman, whose best-selling novel was turned into the movie ``Diamond Head,'' died Wednesday. He was 73.
Gilman was a reporter for The Honolulu Star-Bulletin in the 1950s when he wrote ``Such Sweet Thunder,'' which topped The New York Times Best Seller List.
Columbia Pictures paid $100,000 for the book in 1959.
The novel was turned into the 1960 movie ``Diamond Head,'' starring Charlton Heston.
Following his success, Gilman moved to Paris, where he joined a group of fellow-expatriate writers that included James Jones, James Baldwin and William Styron.
Gilman later trained polo ponies in Argentina, and became an artist and commercial fisherman in Mexico.
Born in New York, Gilman graduated from UCLA, and went on to work for the Monterey Peninsula Herald in California, The Associated Press and The Los Angeles Times.
Survivors include three sons.

Allen Funt
PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (AP) -- Allen Funt, the TV prankster behind ``Candid Camera,'' which thrived on America's willingness to laugh at itself and created a trademark phrase, died Sunday. He was 84.
Funt died of complications from the 1993 stroke that forced him into retirement.
``Candid Camera,'' which aired off and on from 1948 to 1990 with Funt as host, secretly filmed people confronted with talking mailboxes or trick coffee cups. ``Smile! You're on `Candid Camera!' '' was the victim's tipoff.
The show was a precursor of reality-genre television shows such as ``Cops'' and ``World's Most Dangerous Animals.''
``People toss around the word `pioneer' all the time, but Allen Funt was really one of those rare people who was a pioneer,'' said Michael Naidus, a CBS spokesman.
CBS now airs ``Candid Camera,'' with Funt's son Peter Funt and Suzanne Somers as hosts, on Friday evenings.
The TV program was born of Funt's ``Candid Microphone,'' a radio show the New York native originated after his Army service in World War II.
The show had its TV premiere, still called ``Candid Microphone,'' on ABC in 1948. It bounced from one network to another in its early years, eventually getting picked up by CBS in 1960 for a seven-year run. In 1960-61, it was the seventh-best rated show in the nation.
CHICAGO (AP) -- Barry Shipp, who took an oil he found in a drug paraphernalia shop and used it to create the popular fragrance called Jovan Musk, died Monday of a heart attack. He was 62.
After spending time as Revlon sales trainee and rising to become the company's Midwest sales representative, Shipp joined entrepreneur Bernard Mitchell in creating Jovan in the late 1960s.
As Shipp told the story, he was on a sales trip in New York when he stepped into a ``head shop'' where drug paraphernalia was sold along with other counterculture items, including something called musk oil.
``It was the hottest thing in underground perfumery,'' Shipp, a prominent thoroughbred horse owner, said in a recent interview with Illinois Racing News. ``It was said to be a sexual attractant.''
Shipp took the oil back to Chicago and helped create Jovan Musk.
``And the thing just took off,'' he said. ``We went from a $1 million company in 1971 to an $85 million company in 1979.''
Shipp is survived by his wife, Mary Ellen; two sons, Gregg and Drew Shipp, and his daughter, Lara.
