Howard W. Koch; Producer, Director, Academy President
By ELAINE DUTKA, L.A. Times Staff Writer
    Veteran producer-director Howard W. Koch, onetime president of the
Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences and former head of production at
Paramount Pictures, died Friday of complications from Alzheimer's disease.
He was 84.
     As a producer, he counted the classic 1962 film "The Manchurian
Candidate" among his credits. As a director, he was responsible for such
successful TV series as "Maverick" and "The Untouchables," as well as
feature films such as "Andy Hardy Comes Home" and "Bop Girl Goes Calypso."
     In the early 1950s, Koch partnered with his professional benefactor
Aubrey Schenck to form Bel Air Productions under the United Artists banner.
With Schenck, he produced more than 30 movies between 1953 and 1958 for that
studio and Warner Bros. He also directed such TV series as "Cheyenne " and
"Hawaiian Eye."
     Though directing was his passion, Koch took a detour in 1961, when
Frank Sinatra asked him to head up his Sinatra Enterprises. Koch served as
executive producer on several features for the star, including "Sergeants
3," "Come Blow Your Horn," "Robin and the Seven Hoods" and "None but the
Brave."

Thursday February 15 10:33 PM ET
Screen Writer Burt Kennedy Dies
By BOB THOMAS, Associated Press Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Burt Kennedy, a screenwriter and director of films
including the Western epic ``The War Wagon'' has died. He was 78.

Kennedy died Thursday of cancer at his suburban Sherman Oaks home, said the
family's spokesman, film critic Leonard Maltin.

During his long career in radio, film and television, Kennedy earned a
reputation as an accomplished director who injected humor into the
traditionally straight-laced Western film.

In the 1960s, when the movie Western was declining in public favor, he
enlivened the genre with gag-filled films such as ``Support Your Local
Sheriff'' and ``Support Your Local Gunfighter,'' both starring James Garner
in his ``Maverick'' mode.

He also directed ``Dirty Dingus McGee,'' a spoof with Frank Sinatra as a
two-bit gunfighter. Kennedy wrote the script with Joseph Heller of
``Catch-22'' fame.
===========
ST. LOUIS (AP) - Dr. William H. Masters, one of the first and leading
researchers in the field of human sexuality, died in a Tucson, Ariz.
hospital Friday of complications from Parkinson's disease
, a hospital spokeswoman said. He was 85.

Masters gained an interest in sexuality while a medical student in New York
in the 1940s. He established himself as a researcher in obstetrics and
gynecology and moved on to study human sexuality at Washington University in
St. Louis, where he co-founded the Masters and Johnson Institute.

Partnered with Virginia Johnson, his future wife, Masters conducted
interviews and observed sex in the act, researching biological responses and
monitoring the physiology of sexual arousal.

Based on that research, the pair published ``Human Sexual Response'' in
1966, which became a best seller despite its technical language.

Subject: (exotica) Piero Umiliani

Thanks Br. Cleve for the sad news on the Maestro's death.  As I said in my
post a few days ago, it was through finding 'Todays Sound' that I came to
the list in the first place, which has bought me a great deal of pleasure.

I managed to get copies of 'Sweden Heaven and Hell' and 'MusicaElletronica'
over Christmas.  I'd been searching for 'Sweden' on vinyl for a long time,
and it was well worth the wait.  There are 4 main themes on the LP according
to the sleeve notes, and the LP is really a masterclass in what you can do
with such a limitation.  Unlike, say, 'the taking of Pelham 123' where the
themes are hammered into the ground with repetition, Umiliani sets them in a
variety of styles from a psuedo free-form sax solo to a cheesy organ tune,
while retaining a coherent feel to the whole double LP. The only complaint
I'd have is that I'd like some of the tracks to be much longer,  but its a
soundtrack, they're obviously as long as they needed to be.  A couple of
alternate versions, and 'Mah-nah-mah-nah' as well.  Its a great record.

I'm doubly sad to have missed him at the Loungefest now.  I'll go home and
play 'Il Corpo' in homage tonight I think.

Does anyone know if the Trader Vic's in DC is still open?  If so, are the
huge tiki heads still standing outside in the courtyard?  I guess they are
at least 50 feet high, from the picture that I've seen recently.

Great drink recipe, made some last night:  Bacardi Cocktail!

1 1/2 oz. white or gold rum
1/2 oz. lime ( we used more )
1 tsp. grenadine

Yummy!!

February 19, 2001
Charles Trenet, Legendary French Singer, Dies at 87
By REUTERS
PARIS, Feb. 19 ù Singer-composer Charles Trenet, who captured French hearts for more than half a century, died in hospital overnight, a spokesman said on Monday.

Trenet, age 87, was rushed to hospital with a stroke last Tuesday, having suffered a first stroke in April 2000.

``He was the symbol of a smiling and imaginative France, a familiar figure, close to all,'' President Jacques Chirac said in a tribute, describing Trenet as ``a magician with words and an inventor of rhythms...a rare poet.''

Trenet wrote almost 1,000 songs including the haunting classic ``La Mer'' (The Sea), which captured the sadness of the defeat of France early in World War Two.

``Douce France'' (Gentle France), a sentimental tribute to the country he loved, acquired a status rivalling that of La Marseillaise, the national anthem.

With a blend of American jazz phrasing and zany lyrics, Trenet was one of the first French entertainers to take advantage of radio as a mass medium in the years before World War Two.

When he appeared live he was mobbed by fans in a way that foreshadowed the Beatlemania of the 1960s.His popularity endured and in November 1999 he briefly came out of retirement for three sell-out concerts in Paris.

Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra and bandleaders Duke Ellington and Louis Armstrong recorded versions of his songs.

A NOVELIST AS WELL

Trenet also wrote novels and ballads including the poignant ``Que Reste-t-il de nos Amours?'' (What is left of our love) and ``Romance de Paris'' (Paris Romance).

Trenet's popularity was rooted in a mixture of Gallic charm and innovative, even eccentric, talent.

His flamboyant homosexuality, penchant for jazz and friendship with Jewish artists made him a marked man during the 1940-1944 Nazi occupation when the collaborationist press attacked him as a bad influence on the young.

The vitriolic pro-Nazi daily ``Je Suis Partout'' alleged that Trenet was an anagram for Netter, a common French Jewish name.

But the fact that he performed in Paris during the Nazi occupation resulted in his being banned from the boards for 10 months after the Liberation of France.

Between 1947 and 1955 his career took an international turn and he toured the United States, Canada, Brazil, Mexico, Japan and the Soviet Union.

The advent of rock 'n roll in the 1950s and 1960s sidelined him as a performer and he returned to writing novels. Playwright Sacha Guitry had recommended his first novel, ``Dodo Manieres,'' written in 1939, for the prestigious Goncourt literary Prize.

Trenet was born in Narbonne, southern France, on May 18, 1913.

His childhood home has been turned into a museum devoted to his career and mayor Raymond Chesa said on Monday he believed Trenet had asked that his ashes be spread over the countryside of his youth.

GENEVA (AP) -- Balthus, one of the 20th century's greatest realist painters best known for his erotic -- some have said pornographic -- portrayal of adolescent beauties, died Sunday. He was 92.

Balthus inspired and influenced the art world for more than six decades during which he completed some 300 canvasses. His personal life remained a mystery to all but a few intimate friends.

Balthus' published his first work at age 12 -- a collection of 40 sketches about his lost cat ``Mitsou.'' The poet Rainer Maria Rilke, his mother's lover, was so impressed that he wrote the book's introduction.

The blatant sexuality of half-clad maidens became Balthus' trademark, with other provocative works including ``Alice'' (1933), ``Toilette de Cathy'' (1933) and ``Andre Derain'' (1936).

Balthus also won acclaim for his dreamlike Parisian street scenes and conventional landscapes which were heavily influenced by Swiss Alpine scenery, as in his 1937 painting ``The Mountain.''

Frank B. Gilbreth Jr.

CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) -- Frank B. Gilbreth Jr., author of ``Cheaper by the Dozen'' and longtime columnist for The (Charleston) Post and Courier, died Sunday. He was 89.

In 1949, Gilbreth and his sister, Ernestine Gilbreth Carey, collaborated in writing ``Cheaper by the Dozen,'' the story of growing up in a family of 12 children with efficiency expert parents. It was a best seller, as was its sequel, ``Belles on their Toes.'' Both were made into movies.

Claudia Roberts

RENO, Nev. (AP) -- Claudia Roberts, daughter of late entertainer Dean Martin, died Friday after a two-year struggle with breast cancer. She was 56.

Since 1978, Roberts lived in Reno where she owned and operated a printing business with her husband, Jim.

Although she did not follow her father into show business, she made guest appearances in the 1960s on television programs such as ``The Donna Reed Show'' and ``My Three Sons.''

She also appeared in a few movies, including ``Ski Fever'' and ``For Those Who Think Young.''

No, the DC Trader Vics closed down several years ago.  From what I heard, the
huge tiki heads that previously stood outside were destroyed, as they were
discovered to be quite termite infested when the restaurant closed.

I wrote an article about 4 years ago where I searched an April 1961 issue of
Playboy for musical content.  I determined that the RCA record club from that
era (with offerings by Mancini, Prado, Spike Jones, 3 Suns) to be much more
'exotica' themed than the Columbia record club (Mitch Miller, Percy Faith, Roger
Williams, A. Kostelanetz)

I also noticed the lack of rock LPs .... There were no LPs available from either
RCA or Columbia for Elvis Presley at all .... and this was from 1961, well after
he had been established as a star.  No mention was made Fats Domino, Ricky
Nelson, Everly Bothers, Buddy Holly, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bill Haley, ..not even Pat
Boone.  About the most rock oriented offerings were The Platters and Johnny
Cash.

I concluded that Rock was still considered in 1961 to be too crude and/or
teen-oriented to fit the sophisicated elegant stylings demanded by the
editors/readers of Playboy.

Long time gone -- 6 or 7 years now. The giant tiki heads were riddled with
termites -- this is true, saw them myself -- and were chopped up and destroyed.
Also, depsite the establishment's claim that the interiors were being shipped
back to TV HQ in California, plenty of it went into the Dumpster. Again, this I
know, since I pulled some stuff from it including two 7 foot tall carved tiki
totems. One's some hardwood, takes two grown men to carry it. They pitched in
the trash.

The DC TV was low on super-dense decor, and they playd the worst cheesy Air
Hawaii waiting-for-take-off lounge music, but the staff were great, the drinks
were cheap (during Aloha Time between 5 and 7 ) and best of all, it was a weird
dark EMPTY bar right in the heart of DC's downtown Republican-era lobbyists and
lawyers gulch. It was truly a grest ESCAPE place, and ironically, it felt like
one of the more CIVILIZED places in racuous singles-night, lawyers-in-love go-
go DC. I spent a lot of time there. I went back (from Pittsburgh) for closing
night -- still nobody there! -- and the waitress "lost" our (quite significant)
bill, as in "no bill, no charge."

1oz. Gold Rum
1oz. Dark Rum
1oz. Triple Sec
1oz. Grenadine
2oz. Unsweetened pineapple juice

If you're not in a major urban center, I've had good luck finding the
guava nectar in my local supermarket; it's that Jumex stuff in the
little barrel-shaped cans.

And kids remember, Cheeky Chimp sez: "Enjoy In Moderation!"

on the subject of cocktails, I was wondering if Caipirinhas are popular
over in the US at the moment. They've become popular here in London over
the last year, and I guess are a pretty suitable accompaniment when
discussing Brazilian music...

I've had several Caipirinhas in a small Brazilian restaurant in the trendy
Adams Morgan area of D.C.  I've asked for it in several other locations, but
the bartenders there didn't have a clue on how to make them.  Several said that
they would make it if I could give them a recipe, but that just isn't
information I keep on the top of my head.

It is a great drink -- I wish more places served it.

The recipe's pretty simple, it's the Cachaca that's going to be hard to find. You
might try substituting rum instead, but Cachaca is a concentrated liquor made from
sugar cane (rum is fermented from molasses) so there's going to be a significant
difference in taste.

1 lime, quartered
1 to 2 tablespoons sugar
2 ounces cachaca*
 Ice cubes

Mash the lime quarters in a cocktail glass with a wooden pestle. Do not remove the
pieces of crushed lime. Add the sugar and cachaca. Fill the glass with ice cubes
and stir well.

Do any (other than those mini office compact
stereos) exist any longer?

My original cd player from 1983 finally
crapped out entirely.   On impulse, I grudgingly
purchased one of those 5 CD carousel players.

I loathe the damn thing.  I can barely find one
cd I want to play all the way through.  For chrissakes,
what the hey do I want with five ?   It a total
nuisance.

Other than some exorbitant supa high end models,
do simple garden variety "one cd" home players
exist  ?

Cd-less in Cali,

Bob Florence makes sense, since he did the arrangements for many of these
albums.

Subject: (exotica) CD-R deal

OfficeMax in the US is running a great deal!

Prime Peripherals 200-Pack CD-R  almost FREE after rebates!  The pack costs
59.99, less an in-store rebate of 14.99 for a sales price of 45.00 + sales
tax.  Then a 45.00 mail-in rebate means you get 200 discs for the sales tax.

Also, the offer is good through the web site:

http://www.officemax.com/max/solutions/nav/home.jsp

BUT - it ends on Tuesday evening - that's today - so you've got to move fast=
.

They are 80 minute CD-Rs, a problem for some of you. Still, a great deal if
you can use them. Can't vouch for the quality of these CD-Rs.

Burn, baby, burn, Mimi

Well, I have never been to the Trader Vic's in DC, but the one in Atlanta
is still doing a decent business and my good lady wife and I had our first
dinner there.  She had a Mai Tai, which, by all reports was very good.  I
had the fruit punch and it went right to my head it did.  The food was
excellent as well.

Belated happy Valen *urp*tine's Day,

Yeah,

I love the Trader Vic's in Atlanta, although the $80 dinner tab was pretty
stiff last time.  I always try to go while I'm there.  The food and drinks
are great!!  I can't wait to go to Chicago and explore some of their tiki
bars.  Of course, Kevdo made me jealous talking about Hawaii but I'm glad he
didn't keep it to himself!

Subject: (exotica) [obit] Piero Umiliani :-((((((((((((

Sorry for being so late with these sad news, but I was away from the pc and
couldn't send email for a couple days.
Sunday morning I was informed by Roberto Zamori that Piero Umiliani passed
away a few days ago. Apparently, his family kept the sad news secret for a
few days, and he was buried last saturday.

Umiliani was the guy behind countless incredible Italian
lounge/exotic/psycho-beat tracks, and of course the world famous "Mah'na
Mah'na" theme (also heard in the Muppet Show and the Benny Hill Show).

Recently, after having been almost forgotten for decades, he was enjoying a
new moment of fame due to the reissue/remixes (especially under the Right
Tempo label) of his classic works.
Last year one of his tracks was sampled on the latest album of UK big beat
group Bentley Rhythm Ace.

I have also heard that some of his friends including Zamori and Alessandro
Alessandroni are planning to do something to remember him, maybe a
performance of Mah'na Mah'na during an Alessandroni concert.
I think Piero would appreciate the idea.
