Subject: (exotica) Tiki Restaurant News

A couple updates for fans of old-time Tiki joints.

1) Trader Vic's in Palo Alto, CA is moving along. This was supposed to
open late last year or early this year but has been delayed. They are
now constructing walls inside the building and have added an awning to
to the entrance to the building. There is also now a sign stating
"Trader Vic's - Coming Soon". No tikis on site yet. Will keep everyone
informed as the opening draws closers.

2) Don the Beachcomber fans may be delighted to learn there is a Don the
Beachcomber locale at the new Disney California Adventure theme park at
Disneyland.  One section of this park is the Hollywood Pictures Backlot
- - and there is a large restaurant which is made up of decor and
service-counters from various defunct restaurant locales. Don the
Beachcomber is one of them. The menu for this is strictly Chinese. There
is a section of the seating area devoted to Don the Beachcomber,
including Tikis and bamboo decor and a small display about the
restaurant in it's classic period.

There is another on by the same people but of "Music From Close Encounters

I've dipped the needle into it and not really into it. Cute noises on some
of the originals just for the LP.

and let us not forget either the polynesian restaurant that used to be in
the old Lemmington Hotel. I forgot the name, but when I was a kid I used to
go there with my parents.

the only other thing I can recommend in the Twin Cities is the Turf Club, on
the Midway, and, thought this would not be tiki or lounge, the old 3.2 bars
in Nordeast definentely have a distinct and unique character that is worth
going to.  But Nye's is first on the list!!!

http://allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=3Damg&sql=3D1PERRY|COMO
http://www.nytimes.com/2001/05/13/obituaries/13COMO.html

Singer Perry Como Dies at 87
MIAMI (AP) - Perry Como, the crooning baritone barber famous for his relaxed
vocals, cardigan sweaters and television Christmas specials, died Saturday
after a lengthy illness. He was 87.=20

Como died in his sleep at his home in Jupiter Inlet Beach Colony, his=
 daughter
Terry Thibadeau said.=20

``We spent two beautiful hours (Friday) with dad, me and my grandson,=
 Holden,''
Thibadeau told The Palm Beach Post. ``We shared ice cream. It was a=
 wonderful
moment for us.''=20

The charming Italian-American whose name became synonymous with mellow
performed through seven decades, starting in the 1930s. His idol, the late
singer Bing Crosby, once called Como ``the man who invented casual.''=20

Como left his job as a steel town barber to sing with big bands in the 1930s
and his songs were a mainstay of radio and jukeboxes in the late 1940s. He
helped pioneer variety shows on the new medium of television in the 1950s=
 and
performed on television specials over the last four decades. His music=
 remained
popular in recent years on easy-listening radio.=20

In 1945, Como had his first million-selling hit, ``Till the End of Time.''=
 It
was among many songs including ``Prisoner of Love'' that topped the charts.=
 He
competed with Frank Sinatra and Crosby to be the era's top crooner.=20

While Como emulated Crosby in his early years, some of his best-known=
 numbers
were light novelty songs like ``Hot Diggity'' and ``Papa Loves Mambo.'' He=
 made
a brief foray into wartime movie musicals in Hollywood, but decided to=
 pursue a
career in radio.=20

Como often said he far preferred singing romantic ballads to some of the
lightweight numbers, but the novelty songs were a frequent audience request.=
=20

``They get tired of hearing `Melancholy Baby' and those mushy things,'' Como
said in a 1994 interview. ``But those are the songs that, as a singer, you=
 love
to sing.''=20

Some music experts say Como, with his naturally melodic baritone voice,=
 might
have carved a deeper niche if he had taken firmer control of his material.=
=20

Will Friedwald, author of ``Jazz Singing'' and an expert of music from=
 Como's
era, once called Como ``a marvelous singer'' who ``seemed to do everything=
 they
put in front of him.''=20

Como made his television debut in 1948 on NBC's ``The Chesterfield Supper
Club'' and in 1950 he switched to CBS for ``The Perry Como Show,'' which ran
for five years. Como then returned to NBC for a variety show that ran for=
 eight
years, first on Saturday nights opposite Jackie Gleason, then on Tuesday=
 night.


In 1963, he gave up the regular television show and began doing occasional
specials. Rock 'n' roll had crowded out the crooners who once charmed hordes=
 of
screaming bobby-soxers.=20

His career saw a resurgence in the 1970s with songs like ``It's=
 Impossible,''
``And I Love You So'' and several best-selling Christmas albums. In 1987,
President Reagan presented Como with a Kennedy Center award for outstanding
achievement in the performing arts.=20

In 1994, Como put out a three-CD boxed set including his most popular songs
since he started recording in 1943. And his former hit, ``Catch a Falling
Star,'' became familiar to a new generation of fans when it became part of=
 the
Clint Eastwood-Kevin Costner movie ``A Perfect World.''=20

Como said he occasionally tired of the jokes about his somnambulant style,
although he found a skit on the SCTV comedy show particularly amusing. The=
 spot
showed a Como impersonator lying on the floor nearly comatose with a=
 microphone
in front of his barely moving lips as dancers leaped about him.=20

His casual legend grew from his first pressure-packed appearances on the
pioneering medium of live television - with its crashing scenery, misplaced=
 cue
cards and camera confusion.=20

``I decided the only thing to do was take it as it came,'' he recalled in a
1985 interview. ``People wrote in asking how I could be so casual. It all
started to grow.''=20

Pierino Roland Como was born May 18, 1913, in Canonsburg, Pa., the middle
offspring of 13 children of Italian immigrants.=20

At age 11, he went to work sweeping floors after school at a barbershop in=
 the
town just south of Pittsburgh. He got lessons on how to cut the hair of coal
miners and other workers, and by the age of 14 he had his own barber=
 business
earning $150 a week. His pay dropped off during the Depression when he went=
 to
work for another barber.=20

But he got an offer to sing with Freddie Carlone's band in Cleveland in the
early 1930s. He began his rise in show business when he was signed to sing=
 with
Ted Weems big band in 1936, a relationship that continued for six years.=20

In 1943, he began what turned into a 50-year contract with RCA-Victor=
 Records
with the recording of the song ``Goodbye Sue.''=20

In his later years, Como lived in a private semiretirement with his wife
Roselle, whom he met at a picnic when he was 16 and married in 1933. They
divided their time between the North Carolina mountains and the Palm Beach
County town of Jupiter where he played golf, took long, brisk walks and
entertained his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Mrs. Como died in=
 August
1998, less than two weeks after she and Como celebrated their 65th wedding
anniversary. She was 84.=20

He reappeared on television periodically for Christmas television specials=
 from
exotic, international locales. Even as he grew older, the graying Como=
 retained
a tanned, fit appearance and youthful charm.=20

Sebastian Snow, Eccentric English Explorer, Dies at 72
By DOUGLAS MARTIN,NYTimes
Sebastian Snow, an eccentric English explorer who helped confirm the source
of the Amazon River as he bumbled about vast portions of South America
singing the "Eton Boating Song" with somewhat perplexing frequency, died on
April 20. He was 72.=20

Christian Bonington, a widely traveled explorer who made some trips with
him, called Mr. Snow "the last of a fast-dying breed of true amateur
adventurers."=20

His friend the explorer Robin Hanbury-Tenison said Mr. Snow had been "sort
of reclusive" for the last 20 years. He did not know where he died, or the
cause of death, and obituaries in British newspapers did not contain this
information.=20

Mr. Hanbury-Tenison said he last heard from his friend about eight weeks
ago, when Mr. Snow asked him to be best man when he married his landlady.
The marriage apparently did take place, but Mr. Hanbury-Tenison could not
attend.=20

Mr. Snow became famous as an explorer in 1951, when he participated in a
successful expedition to find the source of the Amazon River in the Andes.
He then turned around and navigated the river to the Atlantic Ocean,
thousands of miles away, paddling canoes and bobbing on balsa log rafts, as
he braved ferocious rapids, snakes and headhunters.=20

Upon his arrival back in London, The Daily Mirror hailed him as "a six-foot
live hero, straight from the `Bumper Book for Boys.' " The next year, a
comic strip about his adventures appeared in a boys' paper.=20

He played the part in a manner that recalled some of the characters of
Evelyn Waugh or Peter Fleming, a British travel writer of the 1930's who
combined parody, wit and self- derision to famous effect.=20

When interviewed by The New York Times on Dec. 3, 1952, Mr. Snow, then 23,
said he "found the whole trip a bit dull." He remarked on the trials of
traveling alone and perhaps spraining one's ankle and being pecked to death
by birds of prey. "That would be a bit trying," he said.

Sebastian Edward Farquason Snow was born in Midhurst, Sussex, on Jan. 21,
1929. His father owned a bank in Exeter and his uncle was the British
ambassador to Colombia, a connection that opened many doors. He was educated
at Eton, where be broke his thigh playing rugby, making him unacceptable to
the army.

He went to work for Lloyd's, the insurance exchange, before being dismissed
after six months. He then explored Lapland by motorcycle and hiked from
Istanbul to Karachi.=20

He saw an advertisement in The Times of London in April 1951 asking for
volunteers to take part in a hydrological expedition around the head of the
Amazon. "No experience necessary," it said.

The source of the Amazon had been discussed at least since 1641, and in
1944, two French explorers, Bertrand Florney and Fred Matter, put the source
at a glacial lake in southern Peru. With a series of measurements and
soundings, Mr. Snow and his colleague, John Brown, confirmed the French
finding.=20

Last December, an expedition by the National Geographic Society used
advanced satellite navigation technology to pinpoint the source even more
exactly: a trickle of water on the mountain Nevada Mismi.

Mr. Snow said "dinner together on my return" and Mr. Brown left, after the
discovery of the source.=20

Mr. Snow quickly showed he could overcome a blundering nature with pluck and
luck. (He was described by Mr. Hanbury-Tenison as "myopic and incompetent.")
Mr. Snow handled many tricky situations by shouting in English, working in
an occasional Spanish word, particularly "pistola."

"But it always seemed to work," Mr. Hanbury-Tenison marveled.=20

After Sir Edmund Hillary beat him to the top of Everest, Mr. Snow made do
with some South American mountains. He had been eccentric in his
preparations, not bringing nearly enough food. He ate roast monkey (which he
said tasted "like stringy beef"), bamboo shoots and snails.

After several South American expeditions in the 1960's and early 1970's, he
set off in 1973, wearing a backpack and carrying a briefcase, to walk from
Tierra del Fuego to Alaska, a journey of 15,000 miles, but was forced to
give up after 19 months and 8,700 miles. He carried no water, and drank from
puddles in the road.=20

In the introduction to his book about the walk, "The Rucksack Man" (Hodder
and Stoughton, 1976), Mr. Bonington wrote, "Sebastian is prone to every kind
of accident, some of them ludicrous."=20

Vampire bats sucked blood from his toes, and tigers and pumas prowled nearby
as he nervously relieved himself. "What is Sebastian Snow?" Mr. Bonington
asked. "A strange mix of na=EFvet=E9, diabolical intelligence, modesty,
self-esteem, sentimentality, cynicism and sheer bloody toughness and=
 courage."

After almost two years, he made it as far as Costa Rica, more than halfway
to his goal. But he weighed barely 100 pounds and could go no farther. Three
months later, he telephoned Mr. Hanbury-Tenison and said his weight had
doubled. "You are a perfectionist like me, Robin," he said. "You will
understand that I will have to go back to the beginning."=20

His friend talked him into picking up the walk in Costa Rica, but he gave up
shortly afterward.=20

In 1957, Mr. Snow converted to Roman Catholicism and married the Contessa
Letizia Bizarri, the daughter of one of the Privy Chamberlains of the Sword
and Cape at the Papal Court. They had a son, Sebastian, and three daughters,
Francesca, Miranda and Natasha. The couple divorced in 1970. All their
children survive.=20

While married, he made an unsuccessful attempt at chicken farming. "My
roaming days are over," he proclaimed. "Now we're going to raise broiler
fowls. It's a far cry from exploring the upper Amazon, but so much more
comfortable."

Mr. Hanbury-Tenison said that Mr. Snow lived alone =97 except for the=
 landlady
he recently and briefly married =97 for at least the last 20 years.=20

You gotta have it, Michael.  It's the tippety top of the tops.

Not sure about the African Jazz, did not know there was a (legit) reissue of
it.

There is also a vinyl reissue of this that you can order from Jack Diamond
Music - I think he has copies left and ships all over.

Also, it's not a recent reissue - the Del-Fi Cd came out a good 4 or 5 years
ago...

  Oarfolk's now Treehouse (but it's in the same place), and Garage D'Or
closed up about two months ago; also check Roadrunner (43rd & Nicollet), and
the colossal Cheapo store in uptown (K-Mart-size new & used vinyl & CDs),
near Lake and Hennipen. If Hymie's is still around over there on east Lake

Subject: (exotica) Compact Disk Logo and Parents Advisory art.

Anybody out there have vector art samples of the Compact disc logo and/or
the Parental Advisory sticker that accompanies most rap titles these days?

A pal of mine is making a CD as a wedding favor, and I thought the exoticats
would be the crowd to turn to in such a time.

Thanks!

I'm going to be spending a lot of time in Atlanta pretty soon. Other than Trader Vic's are there any other Tiki related places? Any retro themed martini lounges? Any bands I should look out for?

Thanks!

I like the Pop Shopping CD.  The standout tracks for me are the Swining
Nordwest Theme, Moulinex, Wild Freshmess, Minikillers.  Also like the early
tunes like Tobler Twist and Nescafe Calypso (from '59).  Most of it is from
the mid-60s thru early 70s.

Miss Toni Fisher is the definitive word on the tune..what with phase shifting
in 1960 and that voice that has no time or place, but for my money Susan
Rafey's version, produced by Alan Lorber on Verve, complete with fuzzzzzzz,
is a fucking monster. You WILL react viscerally...JB/no jackie "d", but I
feel strongly about that virgin of the song

There are always things that come out from nowhere, but there are also a
LOT more dealers and "pickers" out there, looking further and further up the
chain. So in order for the folks on this list to find the records they want,
it becomes necessary to get there first.  There's the question of time and
availability to shop. I suppose if you want say 78's and find a whole barn
full at next to no cost you're laughing, but these things just don't happen
as often as we'd like. Maybe I'm the wrong guy to argue this as I've never
in my life bought a lottery ticket...

Subject: (exotica) Records and the DJ

I was doing the sound for a friend who was supporting mantronix doing a live
set around '84.  About halfway through the sound check Curtis Mantronik took
offence to the fizzing sound coming out of one of the speakers and got a
screwdriver started taking them apart.

The look on the PA mans face was a joy.

This was when I was at college, so I can't imagine we were paying him that
much.  It worked though,  maybe he charged the PA company for fixing their
PA.

There's also a Hi-enrgy version from around 1983 that rocked me,
though the singer was no Toni Fisher.
Don't have the record in front of me but the cover of the 12 inch
was a Hi heel crushing something.

That may have been The Motels or something like that

Wow. This list is Gonesville today. Here's some
filler. The DC area SA outlets have not been putting
any new lps out - when I asked why they mentioned that
HQ (like a real army, they are)is individually pricing
lps from now on. Great. I can see Major Barabara
commanding her subalterns to price each crusty lp
according to the Goldmine or Osborne guides.
