Maybe so, but they made it anyway. The call attributed to Petrillo on the "Celebs" CD is definitely Harold Flender, taken from his United Artists LP "Candid Telefun." In fact this particular call (inquiring at a pet shop about monkeys for cooking) is depicted on the cover of Flender’s LP. Sammy Petrillo also recorded an album of crank calls, "My Son, The Phone Caller," (I don’t recall the label offhand) which is a laff riot. It deserves to be reissued in its entirety, although mainstream America’s fascination with crank calls (Jerky Boys, Roy D. Mercer, etc.) seems to have petered out. For the time being, anybody wishing to hear Petrillo’s abuse of the communications infrastructure will have to seek out his LP. WFMU has an interview with Sammy on their web site: ****************************************** Elisabeth Vincentelli wrote: >Just got Benny Golson's Tune In, Turn On to the Hippest Commercials of >the Sixties (Verve), which is a good 1967 collection of revisited music >from commercials. I'd never heard of Golson before, and I'd like to know >if the rest of his stuff is any good. Most of Golson’s work was in "legitimate" jazz. He wrote many tunes which have become jazz standards ("Blues March," "Killer Joe" etc.), and is probably best known for his stints with Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers and the Jazztet, which he co-led with trumpeter Art Farmer. List members might find his album "Triple Play: Pop + Swing = Jazz" (Audio Fidelity, 1962) to be of interest. It’s a stereo novelty record with an orchestra playing a pop standard on one channel while a jazz group plays a tune based on the same chord structure on the other channel (e.g. "Whispering" and "Groovin’ High"). The idea is for the listener to adjust the balance and "mix your own" album, albeit in the most primitive way. The jazz half of the LP was reissued on CD by Fresh Sounds a few years ago. If you like "Tune In, Turn On" you might want to check out Willie Bobo’s "Juicy," also recently issued by Verve. Bobo covers some of the same tunes (Music To Watch Girls By, The Disadvantages of You) and the album has a similar feel. While we’re on the subject, readers of this list who are looking for unusual and entertaining music would do well to investigate some other jazz artists. I see Charles Mingus’s "Cumbia and Jazz Fusion" Rahsaan Roland Kirk’s "Blacknuss" and any number of Sun Ra recordings fitting right in with items regularly discussed here. Keep your eyes peeled in case Verve ever reissues Jimmy Smith’s "Monster" LP (1965). Smith’s organ fronts Oliver Nelson’s big band on the themes from "Goldfinger," "Bewitched," "The Munsters" and "The Man with the Golden Arm." It’s a good ‘un. - ---Wayno - ----- Sent using MailStart.com ( http://MailStart.Com/welcome.html ) The FREE way to access your mailbox via any web browser, anywhere! - -- [This message was sent using an evaluation copy of IMail Server for Windows NT, a product of Ipswitch, Inc.] # 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: Tue, 16 Feb 1999 08:36:36 -0800 From: Jack Subject: (exotica) Benny Golson Demi-Goddess and Cultural Icon Elisabeth Vincentelli, writes; Elisabeth Vincentelli Subject: (exotica) Tune in, Turn On Just got Benny Golson's Tune In, Turn On to the Hippest Commercials of the Sixties (Verve), which is a good 1967 collection of revisited music from commercials.

Never seen this mentioned here before. Does anyone know anything else about "Hash Brown", real name apparently but implausibly Harry Lookofsky?

(AP) -- Buddy Wayne Knox, a rockabilly singer and songwriter who hit the top of the charts with ``Party Doll'' in the 1950s, died Sunday of cancer. He was 65. Knox penned his biggest hit, ``Party Doll,'' as early as 1948. Seven years later, he formed the Rhythm Orchids with Jimmy Bowen on bass and Don Lanier on guitar. Studio owner Norman Petty cut ``Party Doll'' and Bowen's ``I'm Stickin' With You'' on the local Triple-D label in 1956, using a cardboard box instead of drums. The tunes were later picked up by Roulette's then-new NYC label, which split the songs onto two records, each with a ``B'' side. Each sold a million copies and ``Party Doll'' became a No. 1 hit. Knox had a string of other songs on the charts in the '50s, including ``Hula Love,'' ``Rock Your Little Baby To Sleep,'' and ``Somebody Touched Me.'' In 1997, Knox joined The Crickets, Bobby Vee and The Shirelles at a Buddy Holly Tribute concert to mark the 38th anniversary of the singer's death. Concerts commemorating ``the day that music died'' -- as singer-songwriter Don McLean put it in his 1972 hit ``American Pie'' -- have become an annual event. http://elvispelvis.com/buddywayneknox.htm http://allmusic.com/cg/x.exe?p=amg&sql=B4701 *Gerald Gregory GARY, Ind. (AP) -- Gerald ``Bounce'' Gregory, the bass singer who hit the distinctive low notes on The Spaniels' 1950s classic ``Goodnight Sweetheart, Goodnight,'' died Friday at age 64. While the doo-wop group didn't hit it big nationally, their signature song, penned by lead singer James ``Pookie'' Hudson, was covered by several bands during the 1950s, notably The McGwire Sisters and Pat Boone. Sha-Na-Na sang ``Goodnight Sweetheart, Goodnight'' to close its television show each week. The Spaniels were made up of students from Gary's Roosevelt High School. Gregory, Hudson, Willie C. Jackson, Opal Courtney Jr. and Ernest Warren formed the group in 1952. The group later signed with Chicago record label Vee Jay Records. The Spaniels were awarded the Pioneer Award from the Rhythm & Blues Foundation of the Smithsonian Institution in 1991. The group's career was at its peak in the 1950s and 1960s, but the Spaniels, with some replacement members, continued to perform around the country. Gregory's last performance with the group was in December 1998. http://allmusic.com/cg/x.exe?p=amg&sql=B82135 # 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: Tue, 16 Feb 1999 08:55:35 -1000 From: Lloyd Kandell Subject: Re: (exotica) Arthur Lyman live?

King Arthur holds court every Friday at the New Otani Kaimana Beach Hotel from noon - 2pm.

Gleason's string orchestra with sitar (Mike Deasy) and other exotic instruments which are decribed in detail on the back cover. Tabla, Dharma bells, Gamelan gongs, chinese bell tree and more, all played by Emil Richards, many from his own private collection. Titles include: Goin Out Of My Head Live For Life Yesterday Can't Take My Eyes Off You Moon River It is definitely odd, but I don't find it all that enjoyable to listen to. Everything is s-l-o-w-e-d w-a-y d-o-w-n and even the frequently used sitar can't save it. But I'm keeping it anyway. # 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: Tue, 16 Feb 1999 20:26:39 -0800 From: James G Subject: (exotica) Black Saints & Sinner Ladies From the obits: There have been a ton of "erotic soundtrack" reissues in the last couple years (i know, I have em), but Mingus' "Black Saint etc." still puts em all to shame. This is pure, sweaty, nasty, dirty, grunting and groaning wild thing music, no human sound effects needed, with some peaceful interludes allowing time to smoke a cigarette (if you don't smoke, then chew). It beats the pants off "The Story of O" OST. My Favorite Astroslut wrote: There is a CD-ROM of Betty Page which i haven't seen that supposedly includes her shorts. Also, while searching the IMDB for breathily intimate torch singer Jeri Southern, who i've never seen mentioned on this list, I found her in 1958's "I, Mobster", a Corman flick with stripper Lili St. Cyr, the delightfully trashy Yvette (Attack of the Giant Leeches/AND 50 Foot Woman")Vickers as The Blonde, and a male character aptly named Cherry Nose. Sounds like a winner to me.

He was also responsible for the "Scoctopus" (meaning Scotti's Octopus, btw) compilation on Schema records, which was the first comp of italian library music (later followed those on Plastic recs). I have already written to the list that Paolo has a new label of his own now, called "Studio Uno". Three 12" vinyls are out: 1) Piero Piccioni's "O rugido do leao"; 2) Franco Godi's "W la felicita'"; 3) Berto Pisano's "Kill". All releases feature original version of the songs, plus remixes. Also, there's the vinyl/CD compilation "Third Millennium". Future releases are: 1) CLUB MORRICONE: a limited edition, vinyl only, compilation of easy Morricone tracks, half on the bossa side and half on the psychedelic vibe. 2) IL MONDO DEI GIOVANI (The World Of The Young): featuring tracks from Piero Piccioni, Piero Umiliani, Berto Pisano, Luis Bacalov, and other gurus of italian grooviness. Any DJ, journalist and DISTRIBUTOR interested in receiving promo stuff can contact me. DJ's and journalists please specify station/magazine they play/write for.
