Does anyone remember a song by Steve Allen where he's trying to play
the trumptet and he's so bad that he laughs all the way through it?
I've been trying to find that.

I would recommend all of it - except they haven't exactly put out a lot
of their own music.  There's one 12" (Exploration), which can also be
found on a Thievery CD, and quite a few remixes (including one for
Ursula 1000, which I've never been able to find a copy of).  They have
put together four excellent compilations, though, on the Decca/Deram
label - "Dig It", "Espresso Espresso", "Inflight Entertainment" and
"Further Inflight Entertainment".  (I don't think "Dig It" is in print
anymore, but the other three show up from time to time at Dusty Groove)
I pretty much buy anything I see with their name on it - I've yet to be
disappointed.  And I'm assuming you already have both of Ursula 1000's
CDs? If not, you should! ("The Now Sound Of..." and the mix CD "All
Systems Are Go-Go")

Has anyone else had problems posting to the list?  Brian has been trying
to post something - he's tried four times, and it doesn't go through.  I
tried too, and it still won't post.  Nothing odd or offensive in the
posting, so we can't figure out what the problem is.  Other messages
have been going through fine, so it seems to be isolated to one
particular message - any ideas as to why?

Laszlo, can you figure out what the problem is?

This has happened to me before.  I re-edited my message several times, made
sure I didn't quote anyone extensively, altered the email address to the
"new" address and when that didn't work started removing passages from what
I wrote which I thought MAY make a screening program trash it.  I finally
got it through...but have no idea what made the difference, if anything.

I would like to know if there is any automatic screening beyond the simple
"extensive quoting" deal (which I wholeheartedly welcome...who needs to see
entire messages repeated!).  Just need to know so I can avoid saying the
wrong thing!

That's the problem, see?  We're tired of the fact that neither you nor
Brian ever post anything odd or offensive so we had a meeting and  you're
out.  Sorry.  We'll reconsider if you tell me to fuck off.

Brazil bossa nova founder Bonfa dies at 78

RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) - Brazilian guitarist and
composer Luis Bonfa, a founder of the ``bossa nova'' music style,
died on Friday of cancer in his home city of Rio de Janeiro,
aged 78, local media reported on Friday.

Bonfa, who composed more than 500 songs in a career
spanning four decades, was perhaps best known for his 1962
piece ``Manha De Carnaval'' or ``Carnival Morning''. He died in
hospital in the city where he was born in 1922, Globo TV said.

His guitar music began to be heard in the 1950s and in 1956
he performed ``Orfeo da Conceicao,'' written by the legendary duo
of Tom Jobim and Vinicius de Moraes, who composed ``The Girl
from Ipanema.''

Bonfa shot to international fame with the soundtrack from
''Black Orpheus,'' a Franco-Brazilian production which won the
Oscar for best foreign film in 1959 and helped give birth to
Brazil's ``cinema novo'' movement.

Bonfa made his last recording in 1996.

I have both Inflight Entertainment compilations, and they are astounding.
Also, if anyone is ever in the neighborhood, the Karminsky Experience DJ
every Saturday night at Blow Up here in London at The Wag.  I haven't had a
chance to go yet, but it looks like the evening is a lot of fun.

Anyone been to it? Anyone interested in meeting up there one night?

I'm really shocked. Are you seriously assuming that posting "something wrong"
would lead to an elimination of your post? An ugly word comes to my mind:
censorship. Is anyone in this list who thinks it's possible or even
appropriate that this could happen? I'm not talking of someone who is
constantly violating the rules; I'm talking about a single posting of a
long-time member of this list... I don't thnink it's even possible that
there's someone out there who reads all the stuff before it is posted and
sorts out anything odd and offensive within seconds...

I too have problems posting to the list. My messages show up 3 or 4 days
late - if they show up at all. New messages mostly do fine, but as soon as I
reply to a previous message or if I want to send a cc to someone else things
go wrong.
Hope y'all get to read this one...

Yes, I'm having problems too. Mostly when I reply to a previous message or
when I cc it to to someone (like this message). Let's see if this shows up
on the list.

Yes we did, and apparently very soon. I'm had such problems when I
changed my
sender's email address. In another list - the popnouveau list - even restoring
my initial email address didn't help and I can't post anymore at all.

Subject: (exotica) Mojo Club Dancefloor Jazz series

Speaking of Jazz... if I can dance to it - I like it.

After all those years, I have to sing a song of praise on the Mojo Club
Dancefloor Jazz series. I don't have all of them, which are currently 9.
I have 1,2,3,5,6,7, and they are all good. The material reissued on them
comes mostly from the 60s and 70s, more likely from the 70s though.

To describe what it is, I'd say: It's jazz and it's the kind of music I
like to dance to the most. The range of styles assembled on the Mojo
compilations goes from classic funk jazz stars like Quincy Jones to
lesser known people like Dave Pike or Wolfgang Dauner. Names you have
heard somewhere sometime and think are OK, and suddenly you hear this
one track by them on a Mojo compilation which is absolutely killer. Also
in the mix: beautiful and groovy Brazil stuff, known and unknown - f.i.
has anybody heard of "Bossa Rio"? It was the second Brazil act on A&M,
produced by Sergio Mendez, and on Mojo Dancefloor 6 they appear with the
amazing "Saiupa", which I would probably never have heard otherwise,
things like that... the guys from Mojo even tracked down an unusually
good piece by James Last (and that's really hard to do): "Bolero 75" and
then there's the Equals, yes Eddy Grant's band, with a great track
called "Funky like a Train"... Or how about Julie Driscoll? Jimmy Smith,
Roy Ayers, Kenny Burrell, James Brown, Kool & the Gang, Grant Green,
Brian Auger, Georgie Fame, Lee Dorsey, "Little" Stevie Wonder, Baden
Powell, Cal Tjader, Bobby Bird, Roland Kirk, Fritz Pauer... And so on,
you get the idea of a section of jazz which is the missing link to funk,
disco and pop. I find the selections on these compilations absolutely
enlightning and I can only recommend to keep an eye open for them,
although I never find them on ebay, as apparently people who own them
don't tend to sell them.

The Mojo Club is a real club. It has been existing since 1989 as a
dancefloor club with a seperate bar right on Hamburg's famous
Reeperbahn, until some 7 years ago the owners and DJs started to publish
the music they played on CDs, in collaboration with Polydor, later
Motor, now Universal. So the stuff you hear on the CDs is tested on the
dancefloor, fail-proof groove-guaranteed. They also go on tour with
their program, do a radio show and last not least have a clothes shop,
so they know how to promote their stuff.

After the big success of the Dancefloor Jazz series they started other
serieses as well, such as the Electric Mojo compilations and a couple of
remix thingies etc. I haven't checked out all of these, but I'm quite
sure that I like the original Dancefloor Jazz series the best. I have no
idea of the availability in other countries, it was never very good with
Universal, but maybe it's possible to order directly from the homepage.

I'm thinking, why not pay the cash for the record, rip it to a CD, then sell
it again.  I can't see you really losing much money on the deal, and then
you'll have a nice digital copy you can play again and again and again.

I've thought about it.

Neil Sedaka, who probably wrote it too...but you REALLY have to hear the over

The story of Eddie B comes to mind. Eddie is a 45 soul record dealer (by
appointment only) here in Boston. Normally he would sell rare 45's he scored
from filthy and long forgotten "warehouses" for between $3.00 and $15.00 back
in the mid-80's. UNTIL the Japanese collectors came along. These guys would
easily fork over $200 for a 45 by Tomorrow's Promise that MIGHT get $15 here.
Needless to say, the Japanese cleaned up ALL of Eddie's substantial gambling
debts and netted him many lids of slammin' weed as well...Now the Japanese
are making music that many of us want. The passage of time tells the stories
best, eh?..JB

Subject: (exotica) George Fields and Dave Pell

An album called Harmonica Favorites, Tops L1665, should be investigated by
anyone who enjoys Bob Thompson or Juan Esquivel.  Although George Fields,
his Orchestra and Chorus don't have the numbers of instruments as what RCA
could allow, the arrangements are definitely of the same calibre.  The
harmonica usually carries the melody, but percussion accents, bass and
do-do-dos from male and female choruses add the greatness.  This David Pell
production was recorded well and, unusual for a budget label, was pressed
into vinyl nicely...so a "near mint" record sounds great.  The selections
have provocative titles: Hot Canary, Pizzaria, Left Bank Louie, Lover Man,
Helter Skelter to name several of the 12 cuts.  Of course, many people
would buy this LP for the cover...five harmonicas in a closeup shot with a
"miniature" buxom woman in high heels, short shorts and sleeveless v-necked
blouse sitting or laying on the harmonicas.  I see this album offered
occasionally on ebay, but I was lucky to find this copy in such excellent
condition for only 6 dollars in a Mt. Vernon, Washington store (no postage
required!).  Frankly, I was surprised as to the calibre of quality in the
music and was just glad to get it for the cover and maybe a couple of good
cuts...but instead found the whole thing worthy of praise.  I wonder if all
Dave Pell productions on the Tops label would merit investigation as well.

Subject: Re: (exotica) Mojo Club Dancefloor Jazz series

I just got the Mojo Club Remix album, and it's very good - I recommend
it highly!  It's music from the Mojo Club jazz series, remixed by
various artists - everything from Maxwell Implosion remixing Baden
Powell to Paolo Scotti remixing James Last to Nightmares on Wax remixing
Quincy Jones.  Volume two of the Remix series is due out anytime now,
and all the Mojo stuff can be ordered from Dusty Groove (when it's in
stock).  Must play more of this on Space Bop....

Another outstanding recent acquisition is "Virtual Brazilia - Two Plates
Of Modern Dancefloor Jazz" (on Cosmic Flux Musiq, out of San Francisco)
which is two CDs of Brazilian-inspired, well, dancefloor jazz, I guess
(sort of like that new type of music that AZ is trying to describe - by
the way, AZ, I love it when you talk dirty ;-)
(This one is also available at Dusty Groove, and should be fairly easy
to find otherwise, unlike the Mojo Club, which are impossible to find in
Canada)

No.  Eddie B. is a blues collector here in Toronto.

I guess it must be a popular name for major collectors.

Which brings us to an interesting question.  I see guys in nice clothes at
the used record store and they scoop up whatever they want and pay whatever
it costs.  People say "$100 to them is like $5 to you" because they have
twenty times mroe money.  I often wonder if this is true. IF I were rich -
which I guess I can give up on at this point - would that completely change
my concepts of what I will pay for a record?  Any rich people here care to
out themselves and comment?
I always say that even if I were rich, I would be put off by those high
collectors prices.  Just because you're rich doesn't mean you want to get
ripped off.  In fact, some people say that's HOW you get rich, by watching
your pennies etc.
But lately, as I've seen myself buy all these records on ebay, I've started
to see that if I could actually afford what I've been doing for the last
couple of months - and which I'm pretty sure I've stopped doing - I'd be
grabbing up nice pieces hand over fist.
I'd certainly have all the Free Design LP's that I keep giving up on.
I lose them because there's always someone willing to put in a high maximum
bid.  If I could throw caution to the wind and put $100 as my maximum, I
might get  them.  If I had enough money to say "It won't go as high as 100
but if it does, it won't kill me....".
(In my experience this happens more consistently with Free Design than
anything else with the exception of a couple of soundtracks I want, like
"Enter the Dragon" and "Hawaii Five Oh".)
On the other hand, for some people, finding it at a reasonable - or even a
cheap - price is an inseparable part of collecting.  They can't appreciate
the find without getting a "bargain".

So what is it about the Japanese culture that so many of its collectors are
willing to pay the huge dollars?  If you think about it, they've kind of
ruined collecting in lots of ways.  The record store owner puts a record on
the wall for $100 and you see it there for a couple of months and finally
offer him $50.  Once upon a time he would have taken it.  (Once upon a time
he would have put it out for $25)  But now he says "No, someone will buy
it", confident that a Japanese collector - or someone who deals with them -
will eventually come in and grab it, knowing that Japanese will pay double
that.

Yeah they've got better records than me but I've got pretty good records
for someone living below the poverty line!!!
So there!
