Subject: (exotica) Barry Lipman
Barry Lipman is odd. He's done a lot of arranging for pop stars. From what I've heard, both the Star Maidens soundtrack and his track on Strassenfeger, he's kind of in between Peter Thomas and Gert Wilden (for ease of reference.) While I like Star Maidens, I'd say in reference to the aforementioned composers, there are other albums I'd reach for more often. You might really like it though. I don't know what his other stuff is like though. I have a feeling there's a huge stylistic spread with him. If you want, I wrote a review of Star Maidens, maybe that will help you more, though sometimes Dusty Groove will do albums justice with their descriptions. When I go in there, I've never walked away with something I didn't like.

Subject: (exotica) Danger: Diabolik
I'd been doing a bit of research on this a long time back. What I was told from a few sources is that the master tapes had been destroyed in a fire in a garage. So while you may be able to find the theme song on a 45 or what have you, there's nothing else. It's really sad too, as this soundtrack seems to be a bit of a holy grail for Morricone fans. I've been hoping for a while that perhaps Morricone might bother to recreate the soundtrack and release it. Anyone have any Morricone connections out there? Maybe he has no idea how badly people want this soundtrack.

The "Jesus Blood Nere Failed Me Yet" has a 1975 version and then the new 74 minute version with Tom Waits in the last track is from 1993.
JLNFMY did not impress me but I'm trying it thanks to your comments.
The "Sinking of the Titanic" has a 1975 recorded version and the new version is from 1994.
I'm sure the older ones are different than the newer one. Mr Bryars likes to as he says in the linear notes to Titanic "Althought I conceived the piece many years ago I enjoy finding new ways of looking at the material in it and welcome opportunities like the present recording to look at it afresh."
The only other CD I have of his is the "A Man In A Room Gambling" which has 5 5 minute pieces where Spanish artist Juan Munoz talks about how to cheat at cards. And were created for the BBC. And the CD is rounded off with some nice "ambient" pieces.
I just looked up Bryars in Napster and noticed an "Aphex Twin" remix of "Sinking of the Titanic"....It's over 8 minutes long. Anyone know anything about the Apex Twins?

The original lp was "The Sinking of the Titanic" [Obscure Records Obscure
No. 1] 1975.
I much prefer the version of "Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet" that is on
this album. The version with Tom Waits isn't nearly as effective.

I'm going to Kauai, Hawaii on November 15th.
Any hot luau/tiki bar tips anyone can pass along?
(I know there are more tiki bar type joints in
Honolulu, but I was looking to get away from the crowds
so I picked Kauai. )
Thanks,
