"Santa's Got A Brand New Bag" by James Brown. Rhino put it out a while
back.... I'm pretty sure its still in print. I love this cd. I hate
Christmas, but love this cd. :)

Subject: (exotica) 101 Strings Orchestra ?
Can anyone offer some thoughts about the 101 Strings Orchestra adult records? I have the "Sounds of Love", but there's another one isn't there? I've never seen it or heard it but I've wondered about it.
Also, picked up Tipsy's new "Hard Petting" single. If anyone wants to know, it still has the spirit of Tipsy, but it has some definite funk influence going on. It's really nice. I anticipate a really good LP if the two songs on the single are any indication.

Subject: Re: (exotica) XMas CDs
That Blue Hawaiians xmas CD is one of my favorite of recent vintage. I also
really loved the Five Chinese Brothers, but that's in a more folk/country
vein. Still, it has great originals about hanging yourself on xmas eve and
the Great Department Store Santa Claus Strike, and a nifty little surf
instro. Speaking of which, you'll need the Ventures xmas CD. Hmmm, Ella
Swings Christmas. For recent novelties I'd recommend tracking down the Kevin
& Bean KROQ collections. My fav has Snoop Doggy Dogg doing the filthiest
version of "Night Before Christmas" ("...and the candy canes were all hung
with care / From my BIG FAT DICK!" - pretty funny and cool backing track).
See if you can find the store promo SubPop xmas collection with The
Millionaire himself introing the songs and ComEd covering Vince Guaraldi's
"Christmastime Is Here." More novelties, Ren & Stimpy's "Crock of Christmas"
has "We Wish You a Hairy Chestwig." Off topic, but I also love the Power Pop
"I Want An Alien For Christmas" by Fountains of Wayne.

Look for my vinyl copy of this on ebay in the near future. I was also
excited when I first saw this but I found it a bit of a snore. I can't
argue with anyone who likes it. Maybe it's something about spacey moog
records. I also find the John Keating Space records to be boring.
(They're also going on ebay when I get around to it.)
I think it's because I like my moog a bit more like Marty Gold and a little
less like Keith Emerson and some of those seventies synth records are
starting to sound a
bit too "Oh what a lucky man he was" for me.

If you like something a little tropical, you might try Arthur Lyman's "

You musta missed my post on this record the other day. I wrote about it
comparing the overlapping and reusing of 101 tracks.
The album you are asking about is called "The Exotic Sounds Of Love". I've
regularly looked for it for over a year and know of at least one other
person that has done the same, so good luck! Maybe you'll have better
success than we have. Thanks to a fellow listee, I've got a CD-R :)
Caution - If you have the Scamp Astro Sounds reissue and Que Mango, you've
already got six tracks of "The Exotic Sounds Of Love". Toss in a renamed
Blues for Guru from the "sounds of today" album and we are down to five. Of
those 5, only one has Bebe's moaning so there ya go.

Subject: (exotica) OT: CD Burner Confusion
I hope you won't mind if I take a survey on what kind of cd burners evryone
uses. The more research I do, the more confused I am. I am getting an imac
and would use the burner for audio cd's (obviously) and photos and backup.
After reading about the QPS Que burner I thought it was perfect until I read
all the horrible things people said about it on cnet, especially where it
came to music. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very
much! Bob
