I have a couple of CD's on Columbia "Legacy", in a series called "Country Classics". One is called "Hillbilly Boogie" and it's a compilation that includes some Spade Cooley. Then on the same label, in the same series is "Spadella! The best of Spade Cooley". I'm sure there are also numerous Bob Wills reissues and compilations. Spade Cooley, in case you didn't know, is one of the great stories of American tragedy. He was one of the originators of country swing but to the general public, western swing equalled Bob Wills. He was one of the first singing cowboys on film but to the general public the MAN was Gene Autry. Then to add insult to injury, his wife left him for Gene Autry. So he killed her. Then they let him out of jail to do a benefit concert and he died onstage. Or something like that anyway. If it's not totally accurate, it's still a great story.

Yeah, have you ever read any James Ellroy books? He brings him up quite often, but of course, James Ellroy accuses him of various perversities..etc, as is his way. I did know he killed his wife but didn't know he was sort of knocked out of the spotlight by other artists. Thanks for the info.

I went to Barcelona last year, not only is it a great city, they also have a chain of tiki themed bars! I visited 2 of the 3 that i found,( i passed the other one on a bus journey, its quite a way out of the main city ) and found them both to be tikitastic. Having said that, not being a master of catalan or spanish myself they struggled to understand my request for 'Vodka and Coke'. So you may not get to taste your favourite cocktails.We got there in the end though. Learn the Catalan for Mai Tai! I hope these bars are still there as they seemed rather underused by all. At least you'll be able to find a seat though! While you are in Barcelona try and check out a club called 'Dot'. I think it may be a club night rather than a club in itself. I think it was a friday when we visited it, so that might be your best bet. Dot is located in a really scary looking street and is basically a tiny couple of rooms with a bar. Every thing is a very deep red and the lighting is kept real low. Really seedy, the kind of place where Jaques Brel characters might hang out. The Dj that night was excellent he played a really mixed set of exotica, and more contemporary electronic stuff. Great stuff. Not like the crap i'm force fed in 'cool' London bars. Enjoy. I don't have the relevant addresses with me( in fact i can't be totally precise) but i'll post some details tomorrow if i can.

CD . . . $26.99 EMI (Japan), 2001 This lovely Japanese singer does it again! Lisa's recording in a vaguely Hawaiian mode -- mixing her usual bossa approach with a slightly sunshine-drenched style, less Hawaiian than work by Don Ho, more in a "dream" vision of Hawaii, as you might hear in some of the 60s production work by Brian Wilson. The floating lyrics of the Hawaiian tunes work well with the bossa backing -- and the sweetness of the album's a perfect fit for Lisa's voice! Titles include "Manoa", "Swing Time In Honolulu", "Sway It, Hula Girl", "Nani Wai'ale'ale", and "Kaimana Hila". (In a cool cardboard sleeve!) incidentally, this disc is a availble in a cheaper form from EMI taiwan, but without the cool cardboard sleeve. just a standard jewel box. i heard part of it in a shop the other day and it sounded quite good. william in taipei. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info exotica" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email exotica@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2001 18:21:28 +0200 From: Moritz R Subject: Re: (exotica) The Surfmen - Exotic Island > bag@hubris.net wrote: > > > Exact match to Exotic Island, P-10500 on Somerset. no it's not. see my post from yesterday Mo - -- ........................................................................ studio ® http://moritzR.de tiki@netsurf.de # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info exotica" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email exotica@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2001 12:40:05 -0400 From: Ross Orr Subject: Re: (exotica) The Surfmen - Exotic Island Kevin wrote: >Anybody have this album mastered to CD-R - and willing to trade/sell...? > >This album contains my favorite version of "Taboo" - but I've had a hard >time finding this for anything less than outrageous prices. You may have already flipped past it in the thrift store bins, under one of its other recycled budget-label guises: _Tradewinds Romance from Hawaii to Tahiti_ (on the Somerset label). It has a generic palm-tree sunset on the cover, it's credited to "the South Sea Serenaders," the blurb claims it's "Recorded in Honolulu". . .

But man, when it blows, it really blows: her album "Pretty World" (the title track is rather lovely) is completely marred by her backup band (I don't own the CD, so I don't know the credits), which literally sounds like one person on a Casiotone. Not Eumir Deodato I hope (he produced it, I think)! While there's a certain odd charm to a one-man-Casiontone-band, the whole album still sounds like a videoke backing track (William, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about).

As you travel toward Provincetown from Orleans on Rte 6, enter Wellfleet. A couple of miles on the right there will be a purple-trimmed cottage with art objects in the front yard. In the middle is the tiki. Look hard, the house is somewhat easy to miss. I stopped in and asked if it was for sale. It is. $2000 including delivery. I was unable to budge it, it was so heavy. I returned this morning before leaving the Cape to make her an offer. I was too early. She opens at 12:30. This is one fabulash tiki head.

So,...as promised, here are further details of Tiki places in Barcelona. I've also added details of some other really cool places we found. Please excuse any inaccuracies, it' s been a while and i didn't think to write exact addresses down at the time. As i said in my previous post i found three Tiki bars. The first is located on either the Ronda Universitat Or Gran via De Les Corts Catalanes. ( Near the Universitat Metro station) Looking at the map i am fairly sure that the latter is correct. I seem to recall that i walked west along that road, the bar being a very short walk from the University and on the same side of the road. At the time that i visited this bar there appeared to be nothing else useful near it.( So don't let that give you the impression that you are in the wrong area. ) It has a Wooden door with a Tiki on as i recall. Short of taking you there that's about the best i can do. The Second one has a very noticable entrance in the form of a large window display comprised of a waterfall, a pond and whole heap of live Budgies. We found this by accident while we were trying to find a restaurant called 'L'Atzavara' on C/Muntaner at number 109. The Nearest Metro is 'Hospital Clinic'. C/ muntaner is quite a long street and i am somewhat unsure of where the restaurant was. I think that it was on the southern side of the intersection with Avda Diagonal though. ( if you look at a map this will make sense ) Basically, find that restaurant then walk south as if you were walking towards Placa Catalunya, i think that if you turn right at the first corner you come to you should find it. ( or possibly the second right hand turn....sorry, just not certain ) I would say, looking at the map that the most likely streets you should check out are; C/ Londres C/ Paris or C/Corsega. Which ever street it was, you want to be looking near the corner junction of C/ Muntaner on the west side of that street. Any way here are some none tiki places you may enjoy. Barbarella ( C/Calabria 142-4, near Metro Rocafort ) , great little restaurant, with a real DIY ethos. You can guess from the name what it looks like inside, the thing i loved about this place was that you could see that it had been done with no money. It looked like the guy just had a yearning to open a cool place to eat, got all his friends together and decorated it. When we got in, it was empty, we couldn't work out if they were closed and just liked the look of us or whether it was a VERY quiet night for them. Anyway the owner and the chef worked out a meal for us ( as we are vegetarian ) chatted for a while, gave us some tips of cool places to drink and eat, and chatted some more. It could have been really awkward but he was such a nice guy it was like being at a friends house or something. Salsitas ( C/ Nou de la Rambla 22 ) You will probably wanna see the Gaudi stuff on your visit, this fab restaurant is in the same street as Gaudi's Palau Guell. It's on the opposite side of the road and a little further from la Rambla. It doesn't open till around 10pm and at the time, had no sign or anything else to let you know that it is there. Look for a long white, well lit passage. The street that this place is in is quite dodgy as it is in the red light district. Personally it wasn't a problem for us beyond the first night. ( As our hotel was at the end of this street i guess we got used to it. ) All the same be on your guard. Anyway, great food. best of the holiday i would say. Really nice decor, all white with fake white palms and a wall displaying a lava lamp type projection. Worth a visit. Dot ( C/ Nou de sant Francesc ) as i mentioned in the previous post this is a great little bar, my girlfriend tells me that it was actually the Thursday evening that we went here. The guy from Barbarella gave us the impression that the music differs on each night, so Thursday may be a good bet. Again the location is SCARY. There is no sign, just a door. They didn't open till about 11.30 so before you go there you could eat or drink at ; Margarita blue ( C/ Josep Anslem Clave 6 ) this is a lively bar restaurant with a youngish crowd it's just around the corner from Dot. Good food, can't remember the music as the drink was cheap. They have a Trapeze in the bar which could have been really tacky and touristy, but was actually good fun. At somepoint in the night two members of the bar staff gave a short performance for the crowd,... er, lets just say they hadn't rehearsed much and had been drinking so it was quite a spectacle. They were having a real laugh anyway. well thats all i have time for - i'm sure you'll have fun whether you find these places or not. Let me know how you get on.

I thought absinthe has a large amount of methanol (the poisonous kind, not just ethanol). Which is bad in quite small doses. Also, the wormwood extract itself is alleged to be toxic. Thanks for the book recomendation. I'll try to check it out.
