Subject: (exotica) Cool '60s organists
I saw the post about Paul Griffin and '60s organ music and just wanted to post some info on an organist I feel is the quintessential '60s rock organist: spanish keyboard magician Pablo Herrero, organist with the '60s Spanish instrumental rock band, Los Relampagos -
Go to www.losrelampagos.com to download one of the band's exotic numbers from about 1965, "La Leyenda del Beso" - "Nit de Llampecs," also available for download at the site, has a clavioline playing the melody

hey thanks for the heads up on that Josie and the Pussycats CD, Chuck -
that's a triple digit LP!
Say, I've been meaning to ask my fellow listees about this moog record I've
never seen (except for a pic)
It's called The Beatles / Get Back - World On Moog III, on DAN records.
Cover has a side view of a plane with beatles faces in the windows..
Anybody have this and would you care to do a CD-R swap?
Thanks

How come nobody told me Joe Meek had a side-line while he was in Benidorm?

Subject: (exotica) song recommendations website - psychedelicado.com
I did some more work on my songs website, and would be very grateful if people could check it out.
The URL is www.psychedelicado.com
The idea is to have a repository for recommendations about individual songs/tracks. These are categorized not by 'genre', but simply by the person who recommended them. Anyone can register and recommend any song of any genre.
Kind of like a way to post an annotated playlist, even if you don't have a radio show.
You can register and post song recommendations, which are then immediately searchable. You can also post comments on songs which others have recommended.
Any feedback would be enormously appreciated; I think this could be quite useful, but I have done it completely on my own (only 15 or so users so far), so it could definitely be improved based on comments.

This is Perspective for the 70s, from the Westinghouse Sixth Future Power Forum. The Nuclear Kid is the cowboy who represents nuclear power, that everyone is afraid of because of his "unruly youth". It is pretty silly, though the Nuclear Kid song is one of the better ones on it. This musical had such songs like "Urbanopolstein", "Urbanopolis: Oratorio", and "Power Flower". Overall there's a strong notion of a utopia that is going to arise due to nuclear energy. Very silly. I think the best thing about it though is the cover, an odd tree-like structure of a rainbow of colors on a black background.

Ze Ramalho is from Northeastern Brazil. His recordings from the 70s remind me of Blood on the Tracks era Bob Dylan. He still has a great voice, but my friend Jorginho says that hes become too spiritual, whatever that means, which may account for the psych elements. I don't know too much about him though. I could ask around if you'd like.

That would fit perfectly. The Mayan imho is a major cultural milestone of the 20th century, but it's not tiki. It has carved wooden doors, reliefs on the floor, painted relief colums etc. etc. It's unbelieveable that it is a sleazy porn theater today. Someone should buy it the sooner the better. BTW: It appears in this Ramones film Rock'n'Roll Highschool or so. Actually I have seen it in many films.
The only tiki film theater that I know is really the one of the Kontiki museum in Oslo, Norway. But I guess that doesn't count. And it isn't embedded in any kind of art deco style.
Yeah, I've been hoping that the next LateNight CD would be a selection of stuff from the "Record Collection." Can't see it happening anytime soon, though...

Hee! And risk her rattling the gilding off a Quezalcoatl figure when she
hits a high F? It really does surprise me that, at least according to the
fairly exclusive sample of the eXotica list, no one knows of a tiki-themed
Deco showplace. It just seems probable that one highly stylized design
approach or aesthetic (tikis) fed another (Deco). Plus both styles go in
for strong verticals, vegatative motifs, fantastical human figures, yadda
yad. Thanks, y'all, for info.
