==============
Odd that they included some of Aniara on that disc since it isn't a film but a Swadish Sci-Fi opera. Here's the allclassical.com description:
lousmith@pipeline.com
Aniara, Space opera of 2038
Composer Karl-Birger Blomdahl
Genre 20th/21st Century Opera
Date 1957 -1958
Description
Often billed a the first "Science-fiction opera, " the action of this opera by one of Sweden's most important composers takes place upon a spaceship named "Aniara, " filled with refugees from a ravished home planet named Dorisland. Their link with the outside is a device called the "Mima, " a kind of cosmic television which gathers images of wonders of the universe, but, having a soul, it returns in grief to the destruction of Dorisland. The ship is under the rule of Chefone and his enforcers, called "Space Cadets, " while the human element is provided by the lovely dances of the woman pilot, Ysagel, and the tender song of the officer called only the "Mimarobe." The Mima itself has a voice in some of the first electronic music to be heard in any opera. The story is pageant-like, showing highlights of over twenty years spend on the ship, for early in the voyage a harsh maneuver meant to avoid an asteroid left them without propellent to return to a proper course, so the entire s!
!
hip-board society is doomed to wander off in the wrong direction, dying during an endless journey. The music is often radical: basses pulse with the rhythm of "SOS, Aniara" in Morse code. Sometimes there is twelve-tone music, sometimes a harsh jazz idiom. Ysagel's music and the Mimarobe's song in adoration of her has a rare, crystalline beauty. Very rarely encountered in the repertoire, there is nevertheless a strange fascination in this widely varied score and its parade of hopeless characters. -- Joseph Stevenson

Well being Colombian I do know what "Llano adentro" must be. The weird thing is that the slogan "El disco es cultura" was not used here. I saw it in some Argentinian Lps once, and maybe in some Venezuelan ones.
Anyway. Llano means plain. And it refers to a place shared by Colombia and Venezuela in the south east part of Colombia (southwest of Venezuela). Mzsica llanera is played generally by groups of four people: one plays harp, another a 4 string guitar (called 'cuatro'), another a 'maraca' (I don't know its name in English, a round thing full of seeds and the only percussion instrument featured) and the other one sings. It is really energetic and fast, and the singing is very passionate.
It is quite popular here. There is even a group that gets into local buses to play for the small change of the bored passengers. It is one of the most peculiar scenes you can get. A guy with a really big harp, dressed all in white and with a white straw cowboy hat, trying to get into the bus by its backdoor. And then when the playing gets going no one can get out because the corridor is blocked.

It's in the run off groove - the pressing that the audophiles search for is
the one with 3S etched in the groove, after all the matrix numbers. I don't
know how many pressings there were of that album.

I'm so grateful for this reply. This album is really special and without your post I wouldn't have the slightest idea what it is all about. In fact the cover shows a desert scene that could remind one of a sunset in Texas. Many of these singers look like cowboys. One or two songs have horse calls to illustrate the music, not unlike the bird calls of Martin Denny, but of course completely different at the same time. It looks as if we have here the country music of Venezoela and Colombia, no? A note on the cover says "hecho in Colombia por discos Philips".
To your interest, the groups featured on the album are:
Freddy Lopez (probably the best)
David Parales y su conjunto llanero
Luis Ariel Rey (who is featured on that homepage)
Elys Garcia
Anselmo Lopez, el rey de la bandola
Francisco Brizuela
La Rondalla Llanera
does any of these names mean something to you?
http://www.llanera.com/musica/index.html
this very well done homepage features some really nice sound samples and good info on the musicians!
So what does "llano" mean? First I thought "desert" but the photos all show rivers or lakes...

On Clark Street, due west of Lincoln Park, there are two shops next door to
each other, 2nd Hand Tunes and Hi-Fi Records where I usually find something.
Prices are reasonable, though they do have collectors' prices on some things.
A block or two away, on Broadway, Reckless Records has some good vinyl, too.
Their prices are usually a little higher. I confess I haven't been in any
of these stores in a while so things may have changed. 2nd Hand Tunes has a
few more stores in other parts of town. I have yet to stop in, but a friend
of mine found a place in the Loop, on Wabash, called The Jazz Store or
something like that which specializes in jazz (probably at collectors'
prices). DustyGroove is a short trip by car from these places. They don't
have much that's not listed on their website and their website is kept
up-to-date, but it is awesome to see the volume of rare funk, Brazilian
music, etc. that you don't see anywhere else.

Hello,
I recently heard / saw what looked like an old (early 60s) tv-performance by LOS ZAFIROS. This 5 piece vocal sang in spanish and they probably originate from latin America. The Tune was brilliant, as it had a advanced great doowop style arrangement in the top class style. I wonder who could know something about them.
Also I recently got an album by Harald Winkler (guitar) and The Norman Candler Orchestra, LOVE ME WITH ALL YOUR HEART, this is early 70s beautiful big arrangements of pop hgits of the day. I wonder what else Harald Winkler AND also The Norman Candler Orchestra could have released.
The Jackie Mittoo album on Universal Sound/Soul Jazz records is incredibly great, a mix of early Rocksteady/Reggae/Soul instros, mostly Hammond and Rhodes leads. DonÆt knock it until you heard it!

Yes. I have Rosemary Clooney, Xavier Cugat and Peggy Lee. Like all of them.
Good audio. Wish they had put more audio on each disc (like 60
minutes). They could have put both CDs on one! Would have liked
documentation (where did this music come from?!) I think Rosemary Clooney
disc 2 is off the LP she did with Perez Prado...one of my faves. The other
one is from Clap Hands! Here Somes Rosie...both on RCA. The Lee discs may
have been budget reissued before...I think these are the ones she did with
her hubbie, Dave
Barbour. The Xavier Cugat may have been RCA which would be older stuff,
but I am not sure about that. I also have a Perez Prado set and one with
Mambos, but it is basically one-half Prado and one-half other Latin
bands. I think they are worth a budget price...and they look nice on the
shelf. I got some free drink coasters with them to match...but maybe they
ran out by now?!

The Sandpipers did "Hurry To Me", which is the English translation of
Morricone's theme to "Metti Una Sera A Cena". I don't know if they did a

Subject: (exotica) [obits] Hank Ketcham, Imogene Coca, John Hartford
Dennis the Menace' Creator Dies
PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (AP) - Hank Ketcham, whose lovable scamp ``Dennis the
Menace'' tormented cranky Mr. Wilson and amused readers of comics for decades,
has died at age 81.
Ketcham stopped drawing the weekday strip at the end of 1994 but let it
continue under a team of artists and writers.
Inspired by the antics of his 4-year-old son, Ketcham began the strip in 1951.
In March, Ketcham's panels celebrated 50 years of publication - running in
1,000 newspapers, 48 countries and 19 languages.
Despite its longevity, the strip changed little since the 1950s. Dennis was
always a freckle-faced ``five-ana-half'' - an appealing if aggravating mixture
of impishness and innocence.
Henry King Ketcham was born March 14, 1920, in Seattle and grew up there. He
recalled he was no more than 6 when he knew he wanted to be a cartoonist. One
day he watched a family friend sketch Barney Google and other then-popular
cartoon figures.
``I couldn't wait to borrow his `magic pencil' and try my own hand at drawing
these comic-strip characters,'' said Ketcham, who promptly copied every comic
he could get his hands on. ``It was a major discovery, and I was floating on
air with excitement.''
In 1938, he dropped out of the University of Washington after his freshman year
and went to Southern California to work as an animator, first for Walter Lantz,
creator of ``Woody Woodpecker,'' and then for Walt Disney. Ketcham worked on
``Pinocchio,'' ``Bambi,'' ``Fantasia'' and Donald Duck shorts.
When the United States entered World War II, he enlisted in the Navy, where he
was put to work drawing cartoons for Navy posters, training material and war
bond sales.
A free-lance cartoonist after the war, Ketcham was living in Carmel when he got
the idea for ``Dennis the Menace'' in October 1950. His wife, Alice, burst into
his home studio, exasperated that their 4-year-old son, Dennis, had dismantled
his room instead of taking a nap.
``Your son is a menace!'' she said.
The strip with the towhead tornado, crabby neighbor Mr. Wilson and a rangy,
bespectacled dad who looked like Ketcham himself made its debut in 16
newspapers. It was an instant hit, and the following year a collection of
Dennis cartoons was a best-seller.
Despite the strip's real-life inspiration, Ketcham didn't depend on family life
for ideas. He used comedy writers and credited the team approach for the
strip's longevity.
``Anyone in the humor business isn't thinking clearly if he doesn't surround
himself with idea people,'' Ketcham told The Associated Press in a 1994
interview. ``Otherwise, you settle for ... mediocrity - or you burn yourself
out.''
Ketcham and his first wife had separated when she died in 1959. He and his son
Dennis drifted apart, and they spoke infrequently in later life.
The cartoonist moved to Switzerland, where lived in Geneva for 17 years,
relishing the peace of being thousands of miles away from business associates.
He returned to the United States only infrequently and used the Sears catalogue
to keep abreast of details of the changing American way of life for his strip.
A second marriage ended in divorce, but Ketcham married a third time and had
two more children. He and his family returned to the United States in 1977.

Actress Imogene Coca Dies at Age 92
HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) - Imogene Coca, the elfin actress and satiric
comedienne who co-starred with Sid Caesar on television's classic
``Your Show of Shows'' in the 1950s, died Saturday. She was 92.
Coca died of natural causes at her Westport residence, said longtime
friend Mark Basile.
``She was a humanist,'' Basile said. ``Her humanity was so strong, so
giving. She made people want to be with her.'
Coca's saucer eyes, fluttering lashes, big smile and boundless energy
lit up the screen in television's ``Golden Age'' and brought her an
Emmy as best actress in 1951. Although she did some broad burlesque,
her forte was subtle exaggeration.
A talented singer and dancer, her spoofs of opera divas and prima
ballerinas tiptoed a fine line between dignity and absurdity until she
pushed them over the edge at the end.
``The trouble with most comedians who try to do satire,'' a critic
once wrote, ``is that they are essentially brash, noisy and indelicate
people who have to use a sledge hammer to smash a butterfly. Miss
Coca, on the other hand, is the timid woman who, when aroused, can
beat a tiger to death with a feather.''
With Caesar she performed skits that satirized the everyday - marital
spats, takeoffs on films and TV programs, strangers meeting and
speaking in cliches. ``The Hickenloopers'' husband-and-wife skit
became a staple.
Once she and Caesar pantomimed a wife posing for her amateur
photographer husband. He kept rearranging her mobile features for the
perfect look and wherever he put her lip or eyebrow, that's where it
stayed.
``The great thing about Imogene is that her left nostril never knows
what the right one is doing,'' director-producer Max Liebman said.
Coca and Caesar complemented each other marvelously.
``The chemistry was perfect, that's all,'' Coca once said. ``We never
went out together; we never see each other socially. But for years we
worked together from 10 in the morning to 6 or 7 at night every day of
the week. What made it work is that we found the same things funny.''
Wrote Caesar in his 1982 autobiography, ``Where Have I Been?'':
``She's a great actress and we grew so used to working together on
stage that she could guess what I was going to say - and react to it -
when the thought was still in my head.''
Show business came naturally to Coca, who was born in Philadelphia on
Nov. 18, 1908. Her father was an orchestra conductor, her mother an
actress and vaudeville dancer; she was their only child.
She started piano lessons at age 5, singing lessons at 6 and dancing
class at 7. She made her stage debut as a dancer at 9 and did a solo
singing stint in vaudeville at age 11.
``I never thought of myself in comedy at all,'' she once said. ``I
loved going to the theater and seeing people wearing beautiful clothes
come down the staircase and start to dance. I wanted to play St.
Joan.''
Her comedic ability was tapped by accident while she was rehearsing
for a revue called ``New Faces of 1934.'' The theater was cold and she
borrowed a man's camel's hair coat that was ludicrously large on her.
The 5-foot-3 Coca began clowning around on stage using the over-length
garment in a mock fan dance. The producer, Leonard Sillman, saw and
liked the bit and incorporated it in the show.
She developed a small following but her career went along in fits and
starts. It was not until 1949 when she was hired by Liebman for his
televised ``Admiral Broadway Revue'' that she became widely known.
