Hmmm. I guess I like my soundtracks a bit more bombastic or at least with a
couple of cuts you can chew on. I found Lost Man a bit too subtle for my
taste and I still find "In the Heat..." that way. Everytime I make a
soundtrack compilation, I go back to that record looking to squeeze
something out and still no luck.
Speaking of which, for some reason I kept ignoring this one totally amazing
cut by Gene Page on the Brewster McCloud soundtrack and then I was getting
desperate to fill a bit of space on this compilation and discovered it.
How did I ignore "Two in the Bush"???
anyway...

I therefore heartily recommend Charlie Parker's "In Hand" album, which is
equally as good.

Okay I'll admit that for a split second I was thinking "Charlie Parker made
a soundtrack???" and then it hit me. "This is Brian Philips. It's gotta be
a very corny joke". And then I put two and two together. I guess it took
me that long because I'm always choosing two in the bush over a bird in the
hand.
Speaking of Charlie Parker, the article about him in the recent Vanity Fair
music issue is pretty good. And you might enjoy Elvis Costello's list of
500 Essential records while you're there.

Subject: (exotica) Give-away Lp's
Hi there,
I got back to Colombia a month ago but didn't have the time to go to flea markets until last week. I found a Les Baxter guitar album, Nat King Cole en espa±ol, Walter Wanderley's Batucada, a Rita Lee album (don't remember the name but she appears very pregnant in the back cover)...
I also noticed that there were lots of LPs made by different firms as (probably) Christmas presents. There were some from a tire factory, others from a farmaceutical company, others from airlines, other from a glass factory... I guess it was because at the time Lps here were quite expensive, so they made good (and cheap) institutional presents.
I was wondering, did this (the institutional Lps)happen everywhere else in the world? Some of them have really nice covers (nice as in the Boring Postals kind of nice) and the music in them is quite ecclecitc. There was a double Lp from a Renault dealership, for instance, that had a different genre in every side. One was classical the other was ballads, the other was tropical-dance music and the other one I don't remember. Probably rock.
So did this happen elsewhere?
Cheers,
Manuel

Subject: (exotica) liberace request
Hello all
I'm hoping someone on the list can help me out. I'm desperately seeking a
copy of the track "George Liberace Cha Cha" (not the "George Liberace
Mambo"!), as I need to sample it for a project I'm working on. I've lost
the tape of it that I had, and the person that made the tape has lost the
record. If anyone has a copy that I could get in any format: tape, mp3,
cd-R, even borrowing the LP (I'll pay any shipping charges etc), please
contact me off list. I'll be happy to make remuneration in any form. And
yes, I'm on a deadline....
thanks!

I'm sure I've seen these things either as vinyl or CD somewhere recently. I
always
passed them off as more in the line of the never ending "Pebbles" series.
Have to
keep an eye open and try to listen.

Have to say one of the few times I felt proud to be a Canadian was seeing
these guys at just about the coolest musical venue I've ever attended and
in the heart of former East Berlin yet! Have to agree with Moritz about
live recordings never living up to the real thing though. I got a video of
a Schmaltzwald event and it paled in comparison to the real visit. Still
the "Schlager" single these guys put out is well worth seeking out. Having
the term pagan in the title would surely peak my interest so I may have to
find myself a copy of this latest production. Alan, do you think I could
find a copy here? If not I think we have to make a trade...

I'm looking for the video "No Money Down" by Lou Reed (the one with
the Lou-Reed-robot tearing off his own skin). Does anybody know a source
for
rare old videos? It's really hard to find, no search engine brought any
results. Can anybody confirm that this video was made by Godley & Creme?

Maybe you can get it from John Jones directly; he'll probably take Canadian $$
too:

Someone posted about uploading some Flabby files to an MP3 site
(Nicola?) I've lost the link for it (along with tons of other e-mail
which my computer gobbled up and won't give back to me...) Are the
Flabby samples up yet, and could someone please re-post the link for
them?
Thanks. By the way, for anyone who's sent me correspondence in the last
few weeks and hasn't gotten an answer from me, it's probably because I
don't have the original e-mails anymore - and can't remember which were
the 100 or so that "disappeared" from my computer. If in doubt, just
re-send. Sorry about that...

Subject: (exotica) Nuggets
Hi Brian
The original Nuggets lp was released in 1972. It was revolutionary
at the time. Looking back at music 4 or 5 years old. Nuggets set
the standard for Pebbles and the 100's of releases that were to
follow. There was suppose to be a Nuggets 2. It never came out.
Then Rhino released Nuggets cds in the 1980s. Finally Rhino did
the Nuggets Box set. They really did a first class job. All of the
original Nuggets are on here plus tons of popular hits and bubbling
under the top 100 local hits. If you like this music, the four
CDs in the Nuggets Box are the definitive collection. This is my
favorite Box Set.
Easy listening in the Big Easy
