I'm gonna e-mail Moms in FLA to get the detes on how it all came about, I'll
get back with the whole story ASAP. Suffice to say, seeing Mom singing
"Living A Lie", "I Love You Because",  and "Painted Tainted Rose" 3 sheets to
the wind with a suave Al (I think he was a neighbor's pal or relative) just
before the British Invasion left me not knowing WHAT to think! But looking

Hated Orpheus at the time, love 'm now.  Ultimate Spinach and Beacon Street
Union were relatively regular radio fare on then underground shows such as
Dick Summers' "Subway" show on WBZ-AM on Sunday nights. You could also get
them on WMEX-AM, the "alternative" of the two Top-40 AM stations in Boston
back in the day. I guess hearing them on the radio and wearing my twisted
paperclip in the shape of an "S" to "spread the sound" on my shirt pocket was
enough. Long story short:  never saw any Bosstown bands, except The Remains,
The Lost, and The Rising Storm, and that was in March of '99....Jimmy

I picked this up at the local used record store today. A nice surprise.
I've never seen or heard about the movie. I was only familier with the
Sinatra version of the theme song. It's got a little bit of everything on
it. Swingin' sultry jazz, A cha cha, scary, moody tunes. Would make an
interesting addition to any lounge library.

cool,
 be sure to check out the film too.
quite a few surprises in there as well! (if your tummy can take it ;)
i went on a MONDOKICK two years ago and rented as many Mondo films as i could.
it is such a strange genre of films and would seem to do well today
with such the hype about freaks, carnage, and the underside of culture.
if it has not been done already i good idea would be to repackage a slick
nutty BEST OF MONDO sorta deal...done in the spirit of the originals.
Mondo films kinda degenerated into the Faces and
Traces of Death scenerio these days.
not as fun or kooky as the CANE type films.

happy listening

Mostly from my Rock roots

Johnny Cash - Kilburn National Ballroom, a rockabilly trio, a rockabilly
set, in a dancehall, Heaven.  Shame his health was poor.

Tom Jones,  every time (6 and counting) for 'Walking in Memphis and 'He
stopped Loving Her Today' most recently.  The best will be when he goes like
JC and does a dancehall gig.

Joy Division,  1979/80bottom of the bill to John Cooper Clark (mancunian
punk poet) in a theatre in Londons west End.  6 people in the hall,  Curtis
could sit on the front of the stage and stare into your soul while he sang.
Scary.  I couldn't bring myself to see them again,  it seemed too
voyeuristic.

The Clash,  Rainbow Theatre, North London 1977.  So good, I couldn't bring
myself to see them again either. I didn't want to see them be crap.

Jesus and Mary Chain ICA Christmas 84.  20 minutes of feedback,  20 minutes
of feedback and songs.  Bobby Gillespie on drums.  You can hear me talking
bollocks all over the bootleg.

Primal Scream,  every time (10? over 15 years),  every time is different,
except for the glorious sloppiness.

The Residents Mole Show early 80s.  What was that about, then?

Shock Headed Peters/Dave Howard Singers Zap Club Brighton.  A remarkable
evening,  the Shockheaded peters trying to fight anyone who heckled them.

Beastie Boys/Public Enemy/RunDMC,  in the UK,  this was headline news all
the way round,  due mainly to the Beasties show,  20 foot dick,  topless
dancers in cages.  But 3 great hiphop acts,  all in great form.

TackHead/Mark Stewart/Gary Clail, Astoria London.  2 hour show,  Gary Clail
and mark Stewart wandering on and off.  Finished off with a funk version of
'3rd Stone from the sun'  with the lead played by Doug Wimbish Bass.  Live
mix by Adrian Sherwood.  Exotica related,  a fine version of Stormy Weather!

I saw Ultimate Spinach open for The [Young] Rascals in '67 or'68. I thought
they were faboo, and I owned both of their albums (there might have been a
thrid one as well....). They might have been the only one of those bands
that I saw -- I do remember The Modern Lovers playing Sunday afternoons on
the Cambridge Common back in the early 70's.

Veteran deejay I Roy dead at 57 of heart failure
(American reggae singer also passes on)
BY BASIL WALTERS       JA Observer staff reporter

Old school deejay, I Roy, became the ninth Jamaican
entertainer to die this year. Last Saturday, the once
popular toaster took his final breath at the Spanish
Town Hospital after a long illness. He was 57.

Born Roy Samuel Reid, the veteran recording artiste
was, in the late 1960s, a leading exponent of what is
now known as "counter action" records ("tracing"
match).

One of the wittiest and perhaps the most intelligent of
the mike-chanters, I Roy will best be remembered for
his intense name-calling exchanges with rival deejay,
Prince Jazzbo.

However, in recent times, as was reported in a July
edition of our sister paper, ExcesS, the once
flambouyant entertainer virtually lived out the title of
his 1973 Gussie Clarke/Trojan album, Hell &
Sorrow.

In fact, his last days also epitomised the title of
another of his over two dozen albums, Crisis Time,
which he recorded for Caroline/Virgin in 1976.

Imagine sleeping on the streets of Spanish Town sick
and penniless with his only care-giver being a
mentally-challenged son. Add to that predicament, the
violent death of another son in the St Catherine
District Prison a mere four weeks ago, and what you
will get is a tale of woe.

Producer Gussie Clarke with whom I Roy enjoyed his
halcyon years, described I Roy's story as "tragic".
Clarke, for whom the crafty story-teller also recorded
Blackman Time, Tripe Girl and Magnificent
Seven, said: "For me he was too much of a
gentleman for the game he was in. And this perhaps,
in a way, led to his demise. (He was) One of the
proudest human beings who would never
compromise his principles."

And speaking from Miami, this is how veteran
producer, Harry Mudie remembered I Roy: "I was the
first producer for whom he recorded. His first tune
was Musical Pleasure, I would say he was one of
the more intelligent deejays that come out of
Jamaica. Very witty, he also recorded Drifter in
combination with Dennis Walks, Heart Don't Leap
and It May Sound Silly."

While I Roy was making his exit from this life, around
the same time in California, Tynsi Lyons-Tariq also
died, from cancer.

Born in Cleveland, Ohio, she was not as well known
as I Roy, but spent years here making a contribution
to Jamaica's music.

For 13 years, Tynsi, the name she is known by, had
been a regular back-up singer at studio sessions
providing harmony for numerous artistes.

She appeared with the Mutual Life Jazz Players, Jon
Williams and Friends. She also performed with Bunny
Wailer and Andrew Tosh; worked on recording
projects with Bunny Wailer, Black Uhuru, Mutabaruka,
Sly and Robbie and Julian Marley, among others.

She had to her credit the single Spread Selassie I
Teachings written by veteran percussionist Harry T
and the album, Do Unto Others. Also, Tynsi
combined her talent with deejay Natty Pablo on
Natural Woman, a take off from Selassie I
Teachings.

Subject: (exotica) Favorite Shows

The shows I have enjoyed:

1. Shakti, w/ John McLaughlin.  (ca. 1976) His explorations into Indian
musics with L. Shankar produced three albums and a touring group.  Both are
incredible musicians.  The opening group was a mundane Country-Rock outfit
called Anna Hedda.  Feh.

2. The Unclaimed/Fishbone/Red Hot Chili Peppers. (ca 1985) ...and in that
order.  The audience hated the Unclaimed (I rather enjoyed their garage
band approach), loved Fishbone, who had just put out their first EP, stage
dove, jumped about and STILL managed to play in sync and the Red Hot Chili
Peppers had half the musicians of Fishbone, yet were louder.  I had to walk
out on the show (my brother was giving me a ride home), but in retrospect,
I realize that I may have seen the late Hillel Slovak with that line-up.

3.  Lionel Hampton (ca. 1974).  He started out on the drums, flipping his
sticks as he played, then he played the vibes most of the night.  He ended
on drums.  I don't remember too much else, but I am glad I can say I saw
one of the great legends of music live.

4. THE (1983).  A two-man performance ensemble that consists of Philip
Larson and Ed Harkins, a vocalist and Trumpet player and many interesting
props.  I cannot describe their performances.  Part recitation, part comedy
odd music.  Quite the experience.  If you happen to see them at UC San
Diego or on one of their rare tours, do go.   Not to be confused with The The.

5. Jeannie and Jimmy Cheatham, Jay McShann (1985).  Another benefit of
going to UC San Diego was having a documentary about McShann filmed there
(I'm in it, too, I think.  I got to ask a question) and watching these
folks play with you about sixteen feet away.  Not exactly a concert, but
nice to have experienced!

Subject: (exotica) [obit] Rick Danko

    WOODSTOCK, N.Y. (AP) -- Rick Danko, who went from Bob Dylan's
backup band to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a bassist and
singer with The Band, died this morning in his home.
    It was not immediately known what caused Danko's death, which
came a day after his 56th birthday. Ike Phillips, a friend and
general manager of Woodstock radio station WDST-FM, said Danko died
in his sleep.
    Original members of The Band -- Danko, Levon Helm, Garth Hudson,
Robbie Robertson and the late Richard Manuel -- were inducted into
the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994.
    Born into a musical family in Simcoe, Ontario, Danko quit school
at 14 to play in rock 'n' roll bands. At 17, he joined Ronnie
Hawkins and the Hawks, whose members included the musicians who
would later become The Band.
    The group spent the early 1960s touring the bar and club circuit
in Canada and the South. After splitting up with Hawkins in the
mid-60s, Danko and his bandmates played backup for Bob Dylan after
the folk musician unveiled his ``electric'' sound that launched the
folk rock era.
    During the Dylan years, Danko rented a pink house in West
Saugerties, near Woodstock. The group's debut album as The Band --
``Music From Big Pink'' -- was recorded there and became a hit after
its 1968 release.
    Vocals by Danko, Helm and Manuel contributed to The Band's
unique sound, and Danko sang on the group's signature songs such as
``The Weight,'' ``Up On Cripple Creek'' and ``The Night They Drove
Old Dixie Down.''
    The Band went on to play musical festivals including the
original Woodstock in Bethel in 1969.
    ``I remember landing -- I never flew in a helicopter before -- and
seeing 500,000 people sitting in the field,'' he told The
Associated Press this year.
    After The Band split up following its famous ``Last Waltz''
concert in 1976, Danko went on to a solo career. The Band stayed
retired until 1983, when all the original members except Robertson
began to tour again. Three years later, Manuel hanged himself in a
Winter Park, Fla., hotel room.
    In recent years Danko, Helm and Hudson reformed The Band at
various times. Their last recording was ``Jericho'' in 1993.
    Two years ago this week, Danko was found guilty of smuggling
heroin into Japan. He received a suspended sentence.
    Information on funeral arrangements was not immediately
available.

The Best:
At the Kinetic Playground, Formerly called the Electric Theater in the heart
of Chicago,  1969 Santana opens for Led Zepplin,  Led Zepplin comes on and
does most of the unreleased 2nd album for an encore!    There were chill out
rooms with peaceful music playing in them and this was 1969!  The main stage
was an octagon with light shows on each of the 8  walls,   Wow!

Next Week same venue The Kinks,  the Who and Joe Cocker

1967  The Bryds, not to be confused with the Byrds,  Chicago punk at its
best!  At a  highschool!

Bob Marley:   The Warhouse, near the projects, in an old old warehouse
section right next to the Mississippi river this was around 1975.

MC5, The Stooges and Alice Cooper again at the Warehouse (1970)  Actually
got to hold Iggy up with my friends.  I think the tickets were $3.50.  Alice
Cooper was at his height "18"  was number one.   MC5 were explsosive.  The
Stooges were the best!

Jack Bruce and Friends,  Mitch Mitchel on drums, Larry Coryell playing
slide with a beer can, again at the Warehouse.  1970

Kanda Bongo Man at the New Orleans jazz Fest 1988, in the pouring rain.
Ry Cooder New Orleans Jazz Fest 1992?   pouring rain for the whole concert.

Roy Orbison at some small club  in New Orleans and at the New Orleans azz
Fest.

Frank Zappa, 1968 at Ravinia near Chicago, my first concert not at high
school.

The Mighty Sparrow at Kilimanjaros in New Orleans.  Enjoyed drinking with
the guy and talking about music.  Still have his picture taken with me at the
jazz fest hanging on my wall.

Special mention to Fleetwood Mack (original band with 2 leads one on flying
 V)  The Flock, and the Grateful Dead on the opening night of the Warehouse.
Dead were  "busted" in New Orleans that night!

Went to see the "Exploding Plastic Inevitabel" show with the Velvet
Underground but go lost on the way.

Always wanted to see Bonzo Dog Band,  Kid Creole and those Velvets.

Betty Carter--Three times, and what an musician! The purest of music.

The Art Ensamble of Chicago--twice. Cemented my belief that avant-garde
jazz is best heard live.

World Saxophone Quartet and its members Hammiett Bluet or Oliver Lake in
solo performances. They marched on stage playing a fanfare, and it got
better after that. Bluett played his Hubcap-O-Phone--from a frame hangs
several hubcups that he bonged or pinged with mallets. Just saw Oliver Lake
solo this fall--he does performance poetry (perfpo) and plays horn and
flute. The man can make any sound come from his horn he wants to. If the
show comes to your town, go.

Steve Lacy in a chi-chi restaurant in Windsor, Ont--Great b/c his wife
didn't sing.

Ornette Coleman evangelizing for harmelodic music.

The Residents, Laurie Anderson, John Zorn (separately). Zorn played in a
small club, played some instruments he'd invented. I can still hear it.

King Sonny Aday (3x), Ebanezer Obey. King Sunny is especially great if
there's a big Nigerian community in your town. And try to see him in a club
rather than a stage show. People from the audience will leap onstage and
plaster cash on the King's sweating brow. He was standing in a 5-inch-high
pile of bills by the end of the show.

Abbey Lincoln, almost as fine as Betty Carter.

Prince, Luther Van Dross, Chakka Khan. Prince was astonishing--played "How
Come You Don't Call Me Anymore?" accompanying himself on guitar with his
left hand and on electric piano with his right. And Luther made me cry with
heartbreak ballads.

John McLaughnlin w/ Mahavishnu Orchestra and w/ Shakhti

Rockers: Nina Hagan, The Cramps, Panther Burns, X, Fripp/King
Crimson/League of Crafty Guitarists, The Beatles in 65 (my first concert
with lots of opportunities to scream, a great outlet for a young kid. BB
King and, I think, Jackie DeShannon warmed up), XTC, Iggy and the Stooges
in '69 (in a bar--got in on a fake ID--the show changed my life), Cocteau
Twins, The Gun Club, The Minutemen.

Phillip Glass in the early 80s, doing selections from Einstein on the Beach
and some of his songs. Only time I've heard a performer credit the sound
mixer to everyone's applause.

Willie Dixon in the Chicago club where he held court.

Caetano Veloso--Realized a dream when he played here this summer. An
enormously charismatic performer, a delightful show, and what music!

Ed Sanders, post Fugs, doing poetry. He played his Light-O-Lyre, an
instrument he invented, shaped like a Celtic Harp. The "strings" were thin
beams of light that sounded a tone whenever he'd break a beam. He also
played an electronic thing attached to his hand that sounded a chord when
he touched a thumb to his fingers. When I saw Ed read  a few years later,
he was still playing the hand instrument.  Other perfpos include the Four
Horsemen, dada-inspired choral poetry, Jayne Cortez with drummers, Allen
Ginsberg with and without band, with and without harmonium. And Michael
Ondaatje, whose velvety voice and quirky poetry and prose make me blissful.


Thanks for bringing this up, Mo. Lovin' this thread. Mimi

Taken on the Road: American Mile Markers [Flash, QuickTime]
 http://www.kodak.com/US/en/corp/features/onTheRoad/home/index.shtml

 Produced for Kodak by Second Story Interactive,
 this site presents an amazing and ingenious
 project by engineer and amateur photographer Matt Frondorf. Frondorf
 spent six days driving across the country from New York City to San
 Francisco with a camera hooked to his car's odometer, automatically
 snapping a picture from the passenger side every mile along the way,
 totalling 3,304 photos. The result is an unpolished and captivating
 photographic tour of the nation, in which city melts into suburb,
 suburb into farmland, farmland to forests, mountains, deserts, and
 then back again. Users can experience Frondorf's trip via manual or
 cruise control. The first is an Flash picture viewer that allows
 users to cross the country mile by mile or every 25 or 100 miles,
 tracking their progress with an interactive, zoomable map. Visitors
 can click on any picture to see a larger version, and, if they like,
 send a postcard. The cruise control rendition of the trip is
 available in the form of four QuickTime movies offering pictures
 mile-by-mile in rapid sequence. Also included at the site is
 information on Frondorf and his project.

Ach well, here goes...

LEE HAZLEWOOD, London, June this year. Was amazed to be in the same room
with one of my gods. He was so LEE.

SUKIA, Manchester, May 1997. Trash art with sleaze overtones. FUN, FUN, FUN.
If only all bands had that energy.

JORGE BEN, London, July 1990. he's Brasilian. He's amazing. Being in a room
with a pop genius who has the energy and sex appeal of Brasil was something
truly fantastic. I shall never forget.

GILBERTO GIL, London, June 1990. He predated Jorge by a month, but it was my
first show from a Brasilian god. I've seen him two more times since, but the
first was the best.

DON CHERRY, Edinburgh, March 1992. I had seen him once before in London the
year before, but he was positively cosmic. Also blew away a man I was deeply
in love with at the time, and was extremely satisfying to know I touched his
musical passions as well as mine. Better than sex.

FRONT 242, Chicago, October 1987. "Official Version" tour. First acid trip.
Freaky fucking night, but one of the most intense and scary gigs I've ever
experienced. I was pretty frightened when it started, but sad when it was
over. It was like being in a war. But without the guns.

MY OTHER SELF, St. Louis, April 1989. Now defunct band featuring Lance Rock
and DJ Hypnotique of The Ray Makers in LA. This was such a fab gig and even
more fab when it is your mates, truly entertaining you with fun stage
presense and great sounds. Their gigs are still brilliant and worth the
price of admission.

JIMI TENOR, Glasgow, October 1994. the first time I saw Jimi play live an
impromptu performance in the basement of a bar. Just four songs, but I will
travel the world for Jimi as his live performances never fail me.  The man
knows how to give good show. His 1998 performance at Sonar, Barcelona on my
birthday was actually a much better gig...he entered on a white
stallion...but the first one made the biggest impression.



Oh, I can name drop lots of other cool gigs (I saw the Beasties in the cage
Licensed to Ill tour...Liberace at Radio City music Hall, NYC, 1984?... Tom
Jones pre-cool in St. Louis, mid 80s...Red Hot Chili Peppers, Columbia,
Missouri in 1987...Chris & Cosey, 1988, Columbia, Missouri..Primal Scream,
Screamadelica tour in Glasgow...Adam Ant, St. Louis, 1983),but mostly these
gigs are memorable because of who they are or the backstage antics. Not due
to any real impression made by the actual gig. The above mentioned ones with
details are ones that have really impressed me. Working in the music
industry also brings various fond memories of bands playing that I was
working for...like Chicks on Speed at Blow Up last month. Exciting stuff and
so pleased to be a part of it. But it isn't the same as going to the gig,
full of anticipation or none...just checking it out, and then being
completely blown away.

Dang me! How could I have forgotten Sun Ra & Archestra, 3x? After one show,
managed to get backstage where the Master preached to an adoring crowd
about playing the music of the spheres and the artistic superiority of
black musicians. He had a high old time, and so did his fans. Mimi

cheryl,

glad you're playing haack/nelson. in the small print somewhere in the
back of the liner notes you'll see something like 'tape transfers by
citizen kafka.' also did a bit of restoration. quite a nightmare,
basically homemade tapes from the 60's, lots of technical problems. but
great fun, and well worth it to spread this wacky fun far and wide...

As soon as I saw the name with Lou's address, my heart sunk.  Shit.  This
is sad.
I saw the Band a bunch of times and "Music from Big Pink" was a big record
for me.  But Rick Danko was also kind of a patron saint for the local music
scene here and he's someone you'd see around.
For some reason, I sort of related to him.  I had also related to Richard
Manuel as a tragic figure and a beautiful soul.
Danko was a bit tragic too but also a bit more "of this world" than Manuel,
more "happy-go-lucky" and in some ways less like someone who could have
been my friend.
A bit of a lovable drunk.
And there was something about the way he sung.  Not angelic and
otherworldly like Manuel but still clearly very emotional in its own way.
It's been a long time since I listened to the Band or to music like that
but I still think they were an amazing band, not just for the music but
also for the way their individual personalities were so evident.  They were
like a movie about this strange, beautiful, crazy, dysfunctional family.
And Danko was the mischievous kid who always got in trouble and was always
forgiven.
R.I.P.

Subject: (exotica) Tiki Lecture Dec 12

Edgar Leeteg Tribute/Group Art Show

Curated by John Turner and Greg Escalante

Presented by Copro/Nason Fine Art - Sponsored by Barracuda


The show runs December 4th, 1999 through February 28th, 2000

Sunday December 12th, 1999 2-5 PM -- Curator's lecture and book signing for

two new books: "Leeteg Of Tahiti: Paintings From Villa Velour" and "Taboo:

The Art Of Tiki"



The Leeteg Tribute - Group Art Show marks the Grand Opening of the

Copro/Nason Gallery in Culver City, CA. This exhibition pays homage to

Edgar William Leeteg the father of modern painting on velvet, featured as

Barracuda's Real-Man Revisited in issue #6.


Known as the "American Gauguin", Leeteg created close to 1700 works on

velveteen while living in Tahiti. In 1953, Leeteg was thrown from the back

of a speeding Harley Davidson and met an untimely demise at the age of 49.

The Leeteg Tribute celebrates the on-going legacy of Leeteg and will be

curated by John Turner and Greg Escalante - authors of the book Leeteg of

Tahiti, Paintings from the Villa Velour, published by Last Gasp of San

Francisco.


In addition to having original velvet paintings by Leeteg, this exhibition

will feature contemporary Leeteg inspired works by over fifty of

California's "native" Tiki edged artists. In this exhibition, the

underground meets the studio as "lowbrow" greats like Shag, Von Franco and

Frank Kozik rub elbows with the likes of Guggenheim fellow Sandow Birk,

Mark Ryden and the honorable C.R. Stecyk III. Additionally, the show will

feature our newest discovery - 83 year-old Eric Askew, who still paints in

the style Leeteg personally taught him in Tahiti.


Take advantage of this rare opportunity to see (and maybe even buy!) the

works of Leeteg at the venerable Copro/Nason Gallery.
