Subject: (exotica) Whore songs

House of the Rising Sun.

This song never made any sense to me until I heard Nina Simone sing it. You
 can find it on of the "Best of the Colpix Years" CD's.

The "rock" version. (by the Animal's?) is covered by a man and it's a song
that should be covered by a woman.

From the Nina Simone web page:

Caught the lunar eclipse last night.   It was a crystal clear night with cool
45 degree weather. Lounging in a hot tub listening to Yma Sumac and the
"Voice of Ixtabay" ,   it occured to me the Incans worshipped the moon.
Nothing could have sounded better than Yma Sumac and Les Baxter !

Easy listening in the Big Easy

Missed it here. Snow fell heavily for a few hours. Then a bone chilling wind
sent the chill factor down to 45 below zero. Sat under several blankets
listening to Bob Sinclair pop disco sample upon disco sample. Does anyone
anywhere worship snow?

Subject: (exotica) the original mrs miller?

just picked up a funny record the other day and am now getting around to
listening to it.
the title is:
Music to Suffer By and its sung by Miss Leona Anderson
and let me tell you, Mrs Miller could have, and probably did, take a few
cues from Miss Anderson. Her voice is horrible!!! songs like Limberger
Lover, Rats in My Room, Hep Cat, Yo Ho the Crow and Indian Love Call as well
as others just send shivers up my spine. It touts her as "The World's Most
Horrible Singer" The liner notes are hilarious too:

"....Its been said that there is an art to being consistantly bad, and if
so, this is a collection of a true artist who's tops in her field. This is
Leona Anderson at her worst.....which is actually her best....."

It looks to be from the late 50's, so it probably pre dates Mrs Miller.  If
anyone knows anything about this one or knows if there were any other
deliberate  "horrible singing" joke records released besides this one and
Miller's (Shatner fans sit down please).

horribly yours

Subject: (exotica) [obit] Jester Hairston

Jester Hairston Dies; Actor Overcame
Race Stereotypes
Embodying blacks' Hollywood struggles, he played in
'Amos 'n' Andy.' But he was also an influential choral director
and promoter of spirituals.
By ELAINE WOO, LA Times Staff Writer

Jester Hairston ran naked yelling 'Bwana, bwana!" through
more Tarzan movies than he cared to remember.
He had to lose his Boston accent to win long-running roles on
the radio and television versions of "Amos 'n' Andy," a classic
show eventually run off the air because of objections over its
demeaning depictions of blacks. Later he played the
wisecracking Rolly Forbes on the 1980s sitcom "Amen."
But the veteran actor, who died Tuesday in Los Angeles at
98, never made apologies for portraying racial stereotypes
during his career, which embodied the black actor's struggle in
Hollywood.
"We had a hard time then fighting for dignity," he once said of
his early roles. " . . . We had no power. We had to take it, and
because we took it the young people today have opportunities."
Hairston was equally adamant about the need to preserve
Negro spirituals, the focus of his other career. He was a
sought-after choral director for half a century who organized
Hollywood's first integrated choir and composed or arranged
more than 300 spirituals. He was best known for his
arrangement of "Amen," which he dubbed for Sidney Poitier in
the 1963 film "Lilies of the Field."
Continuing to conduct choirs in his 90s, he crisscrossed the
world as a goodwill ambassador for the State Department.
The grandson of a slave, Hairston was born in Belews
Creek, N.C., in 1901 but moved north as a child to Pittsburgh,
where generations of his family worked in steel mills. He
escaped the mills through a scholarship from his Baptist church
and enrolled in landscape design at Massachusetts Agricultural
College (now the University of Massachusetts).
He dropped out for several years when his money ran out,
returning to school when he met a woman who was so
impressed with his singing that she offered to finance his
education in music. He wound up at Tufts University, graduating
in 1929.
Making his way to New York, he met Hall Johnson, a
popular conductor of Negro spirituals whose choir was the most
prominent black singing group of the 1930s. Hairston became
his assistant.
He came to California with the choir in 1935 and got his big
break when the Russian-born conductor and composer Dmitri
Tiomkin asked him to conduct the choir in the 1936 film "Lost
Horizon," which won an Oscar for best score. That began a
20-year association with Tiomkin, who inspired him to form the
first integrated choir used in films, including "Red River," "She
Wore a Yellow Ribbon" and "Land of the Pharaohs."
It was Johnson who taught Hairston to respect the Negro
spiritual. Having survived the elitist environment of the Boston
area while attending Tufts, Hairston came to Johnson with a
cockiness he felt he had earned. But Johnson initially rejected
Hairston when he asked to become his assistant.
"You don't have the right attitude toward these songs,"
Johnson told him. "We're singing ain't and cain't and you're
singing shahn't and cahn't and they don't mix in a spiritual."
Hairston got rid of his cahn'ts and shahn'ts. Remembering the
stories and songs of his grandmother, he dedicated himself not
just to preserving the music of the slaves but also to
memorializing the conditions that gave birth to it. During college
workshops, he would tell students, "You can't sing legato when
the master's beatin' you across your back."
When Hairston wasn't arranging music, he had to find other
work. He won small parts in movies, playing African natives in
Tarzan films and butlers in others. During casting for "Tarzan's
Hidden Jungle," a 1955 release, the director handed the
diminutive Hairston, who had played screaming savages in
previous movies, a meatier role: witch doctor. Hairston recalled
his bemused reaction years later: "Good gracious, I've been
promoted!"
To get radio work, Hairston said, "[I] had to lose my Boston
accent and learn to say 'Yassuh.' "
"If they wanted you to say 'Yassuh, boss,' then you said it,"
he recalled in an interview. "You didn't say what I was taught in
Boston: 'Yes, sir.' If I had said 'Yes, sir,' I would never have
made it."
His Bostonian inflections came in handy when he was cast as
Henry Van Porter, "the society man from black society" who
ridiculed Amos and Andy. He also played the less polished
Leroy, Kingfish's brother-in-law.
In 1986 he landed the role of Rolly in the NBC sitcom
"Amen." He appeared in such films as films "In the Heat of the
Night," "Lady Sings the Blues" and "To Kill a Mockingbird."
Hairston is survived by his daughter, Jeane-Marie Swann of
Los Angeles, three grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.
A memorial service will be held Monday at 11 a.m. at Holman
Methodist Church, 3320 W. Adams Blvd., Los Angeles.

Yeah but won't TNT hack this Kevin Costner(!) production to shreds,
snipping out some of the, er ambience of the native girls ? A fun movie
which begs for a snazzy DVD release. Music by Stewart Copeland, no
Sting.

And if you missed X! The Man With the X-Ray Eyes(1963) on AMC last week
you have another chance next Monday at 11 EST. Wild score by the Master
Les Baxter - who is that woman doing the spooky ooing and aahing? Mary
Mayo, Marni Nixon, Tricia Nixon???? Then dig the swingin' 60's twist
number with the absolutely WORST twist dancers in the history of film,
who suddenly appear nekkid after Ray Milland's eye drops kick in.  A
Corman Classic!!!!!  Tim Burton is reportedly working on the remake.

this link has a review & pics including the twisters but doesn't mention
the music:
http://www.stomptokyo.com/badmoviereport/xray.html

AMC is rockin lately, giving TCM some stiff competition. A few hours
before "X" on Monday AMC may still be showing the Hollywood Fashion
Machine episode about censorship and the Hays Code, which forced the
studios to think of devious ways to get girls (including exotica icon
Hedy Lamarr) into skimpy costumes - hence those jungle movies, harem
adventures, exotic locales, Bing and Bob Road pictures, etc., all part
of our exotica tapestry...........

Surprisingly, the first time TNT showed it, the mammal signifiers were
present in full force. They must have exploited the National Geographic
loophole. Never mind that some of the "natives" were blonde and rather
California looking (age-old movie tradition). No guarantee for this
showing, of course. Maybe Ted's computers have finally had the time to draw
perky halters on everyone.

>And if you missed X! The Man With the X-Ray Eyes(1963) on AMC last week

And what a bleak piece of work it is. Wonderful. Not to mention Don Rickles
in a totally straight heavy role.

>AMC is rockin lately, giving TCM some stiff competition.

Indeed. Other than the Edward L. Cahn retrospective on Tuesday mornings,
TCM seems to be taking a breather. Whereas tonight, for example, AMC has
the original "Invaders From Mars" at 10:30pm and 2:00am (eastern).

ah yes.
i was lucky enough to have crisp clear skies with a few large fast moving
clouds in which i heard music from one of the only exotic bands in
Baltimore,
the Swinging Swamis. lots of people walked outside of the club to watch and
wonder over the eclipse while still digging the band playing inside.
cool and sometimes eerie middle eastern tunes, exotica pop tunes like
"Stumbling" and "Sabre Dance".
later came the incredible one man band Psycho-raunch and roll sounds of
Bob Log III! what a treat.

however i am jealous over the hot tub scenario!

How's about Jonathan & Darlene Edwards, the sour-voiced and clumsy-fingered
alter egos of Jo Stafford and Paul Weston? I love the concept of two
talented people being able to sound so wonderfully bad on purpose! Makes me
wish some of today's "hot artists" would try pushing themselves in that
direction... I'd actually buy a Backstreet Boys CD if it was all done
intentionally off-key - OK, maybe not even then, but you get the idea.

Yes! I love that place! I was there a few years ago (1994? I think) And it
was great. They did have the Polynesian supper show and tiki bar still. We
were totally lost and trying to find a friend we were meeting for July 4th
- - The friend flaked out but we found the Supper club and much mirth ensued.
Definitely call first to make sure they are still tiki themed tho - sadly,
at the time the rest of the hotel had been updated.

Subject: (exotica) it's possible!

Remember when years ago someone complained about the unconvenience of
this list handling the reply-to-address? In fact everytime you answer an
exotica mail you have to replace the senders email address with the
address of the exotica list. I don't know how many times I had to send
my postings twice after unvoluntarily addressing it to the sender
instead of to the list... Now: it doesn't have to be that way: Just
check the Pop Nouveau List: When you reply to a posting, it
automatically gives you the correct reply-to-address of the mailing list
in your mail's header instead of the sender's. So why is it not possible
here at majordomo?

Another solution of the problem I found in an e-mail-program called The
Bat: It offers the widest range of self-defined prefs I ever saw in an
email-program. First you open a folder where all messages of the exotica
list are automatically collected; netscape has this feature too, BUT:
You can set all kinds of prefs for each of the folders, f.i. the
reply-to-address. It defines that all messages that you reply to from
this folder are automatically addressed to a pre-selected address.
Unfortunately The Bat only seems to be available for PCs...

'Twas beautiful. Calming. Stately. No music at Rancho Deluxe. Instead,
listened to my dog wheeze and the clicking  of bare twigs as tree branches
moved in the wind. Sometimes that music is all you need, you know what I
mean?

Enough of that sensitive shit.
Thanks to m.ace, found a great Moog compilation on the DISINFORMATION site.
>http://www.disinfo.com/cc/newsci/cc_newsci_23.html

Poking round the site, found The Best of Moog, a compilation developed by
the ministers of Disinformation. Only US$13.58 when you order from them
(plus the warm feeling in your heart from supporting people who keep
dossiers on the CIA). Follow the link on the lower right margin of the home

should work if you're running Netscape or IE 4.0 or up.  But not for me.
Must be a conspiracy against Mac users, right?  Thx for the tipoff, m.ace.

Subject: (exotica) OT: Seeking two three-head decks

With so many of you upgrading to CD-Rs, you might be liquidating your
trusty  three-head tape decks. I'm in the market for two single-well decks,
one with a mic input, and am looking for good quality at a decent price.
Please mail me offlist if your old deck is gathering dust, and let's make a
deal. And if anyone wants to recommend some models I should look for, do
tell. I dream of a Nak Dragon, but that's probably outta my reach. Thanks,
Mimi

Mimi:  this is NOT a Y2K problem; it's a security certificate expiration
problem (which affects both PCs and Macs running previous versions of
I.E.).  There will be no upgrade for the Mac version of 4.0 by Microsoft,
so you'll have to download 4.5 anyway.  Once you do that, there is an
updater available on the same MS site to change the certificates embedded
in 4.5 so that they are well beyond the date of Dec. 31, 1999.  Email me
for help once you download and run the updater for 4.5 if you still get
the same expired certificates; you may have to do one other step (I did)
to get the new certificates to appear in the Preferences window.  It's
simple to fix, then you can do all the e-commerce you like!!

Subject: (exotica) Hi-Fidelity Lounge

For those of you interested in some newer sounds of downtempo (referred to
as "lounge" in the electronic music world), this is one to check out:

VA: Hi-Fidelity Lounge: Volume One  (Guidance Records)
Triple vinyl version."The first installation in a compilation
series exploring the diverse spectrum of sounds emerging from the
bars, restaurants and lounges of our planet's urban centers. The
subterranean selections on this album are a reflection of the eclectic
and open minded musical program that has transformed these venues into
a vital and welcome alternative to the corporate club experience.
Downbeat masters Jazzanova, Rainer Truby, Paul Hunter, Thievery
Corporation, The Bobby Hughes Experience, The Mighty Bop, and more
serve up a tantalizing blend of trip hop, jazz, funk, soul, swing, and
bossa nova custom made for chillin' at your local cocktail lounge,
swingin' home pad, or groovin' on the dancefloor."

This is also available on CD. Guidance is a well respected label out of
Chicago; many electronic music stores feature it in it's own section.
Sorry, I don't have a catalog number for this at my fignertips.

Subject: (exotica) 75,000 lp's for sale!!!!

This from the Melbourne Herald-Sun newspaper Thursday 20th Jan

Aussies turn tables on dusty foreign vinyl

ONE of Australia's largest record collections is for sale as the government
dumps Bing Crosby to make way for Johnny O'Keefe.
    Over 75,000 vinyl albums and 45s are available as the old National Film
and Sound Archives =8B now ScreenSound Australia=8B use the proceeds to complet=
e
its Australian collection.
    Collection development manager Graham Evans said ScreenSound aimed to
build a collection Of all-Australian recordings over the next few years.
    "But we are in competition with private collectors and prices can be
extremely high," he said.
    Bargain-hunters can choose from Billy Joel's Piano Man, Neil Young's
Rust Never Sleeps, or Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon.
    Song of Glory with the Foggy Mountain Boys could be yours for as little
as $4 while Jim Reeves, Hank Snow and Waylon Jennings are all there for
under $10.
    An obscure offering is a ffve-album set by Burt Bacharach offering
advice to young men on anything from cooking to how long their sleeves
should be.
    Strictly For Men should be within the $5 range at the February 5th sale=
.


See you there OK?

I have 10 MP3 files on Page 4 of my WW Discography (see URL below) that I
made myself from my store bought CDs.  I tried to pick the best cuts
possible that would feature Walter's playing.  I definitely would not
classify this music as "weird", though, since I am a huge fan of his--so
it might not be to your own personal taste.  Check them out and see for
yourself.

Subject: (exotica) Edmundos' voice

I'll have to agree with Nat about Edmundo Ros' singing voice. It is rather
awful. Sounds like he has a rock lodged in his throat. Or maybe just a bad
cold. That and the fact that he doesn't seem to be on key much of the time.
Thankfully, he only sings on one or two tracks per album.

Subject: (exotica) Retro Cocktail Hour

This week's Retro Cocktail Hour webcast features tracks from the lost
Esquivel masterpiece, "See It In Sound".  In addition, listeners to
our live stream can take part in an on-air giveaway (we'll be giving
away free copies of "See It In Sound" during the first hour, in
cooperation with 7N Music).  The RealAudio stream is only about :05
behind our live air signal, and we usually go for high numbers of
phone calls during giveaways, so even Web listeners should have a
fair shot at a free copy of "See It In Sound"!

Elsewhere on the show, there's swinging Europop by Horst Jankowski
and Maurice Pop, crime jazz Italian-style from Armando Trovaioli and
Piero Piccioni--along with some domestic efforts by Lalo Schifrin and
Kenyon Hopkins--plus tunes by Richard Hayman ("Genuine Electric Latin
Love Machine"), Les Baxter, Balanco, Yma Sumac and others.

To hear The Retro Cocktail Hour on the Web, go here for the live
stream (7:00pm Saturday, Central time):

http://kanu.ukans.edu/realaudio/index.htm

Or look for the show in our program archive (sorry, no CD giveaways
here) shortly after the live show:

http://kanu.ukans.edu/retro.html

Requires minimim 28.8 connection and RealPlayer.  If you tune us in,
let us hear from you!

Thanks for the space.

Subject: (exotica) Tiki Ragtime

Ran across this file on the 'net and thought it was

 Item: Delos/Siren Records 4501

Album Liner Notes (excerpts): Many people have been
introduced to
ragtime at a Disney theme park. On the 1900s-style
Main Streets of
these parks you'll often find the Main Street Pianist,
still performing
ragtime music today, just as the turn of the century.
So, it seems
fitting to present ragtime arrangements of music from
the Disney parks
