He was 71. Sato, who wrote the music for such Kurosawa films as ``Red Beard,'' ``Sanjuro,'' and ``Yojinbo,'' with its samurai battles, died shortly after arriving at a hospital in Tokyo, the Asahi newspaper said. The cause of death was not immediately known. Sato began his career in 1952 after graduating from music school in Tokyo. He wrote the music for ``Godzilla Raids Again'' in 1955 and began working with Kurosawa in 1957. Kurosawa died in September 1998 at age 88. *Keith Wylie LONDON (AP) -- Master croquet player Keith Wylie, who treated the gentle lawn sport as a cerebral challenge, died Nov. 1 at his home near Southhampton in southwest England. He was 54. The cause of death was not given. Wylie, a lawyer, was an innovative player who brought croquet out of the quiet confines of the vicarage garden and placed it firmly in the competitive arena. He played with flair and enthusiasm, adding a distinctive pith helmet to the traditional white croquet outfit. He first took up the game at King's College, Cambridge. Within five years he captured all the major British titles and several international ones. Wylie wrote ``Expert Croquet Tactics,'' in 1985, a book that the American magazine ``Croquet World'' described as ``without question, the most significant croquet book published in the last 20 years.'' December 7, 1999 Anne Francine, Actress and Cabaret Singer, Dies at 82 Anne Francine, an actress who worked in film, theater and television and who was also a prominent cabaret performer for six decades, died on Friday at the Lawrence and Memorial Hospital in London, Conn. She was 82 and lived in Old Lyme, Conn. Born into Main Line Philadelphia society, Miss Francine came of age during the 1930's, when New York's numerous intimate night spots offered opportunities for beginners. With her imposing good looks, bawdy humor and raspy contralto, she made her performing debut at the Coq Rouge, after winning an amateur contest, and went on to engagements at the Pierre, the Persian Room, the Copacabana and the Algonquin. In the mid-1940's she traveled abroad, singing in late-night haunts in London and Paris. Impeccably mannered and beautifully spoken, she centered her programs on the flippant high-society songs of Cole Porter and Jerome Kern, inserting comedic gestures often funny enough to bring the house down. Miss Francine made her Broadway debut in 1954 with Shirley Booth in "By the Beautiful Sea" before going on to work with Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne in "The Great Sebastians" the next season. In the A.P.A.-Phoenix Repertory Company production of "The School for Scandal" she stepped in for a vacationing Helen Hayes. But her favorite role was that of Vera Charles in the 1966 Broadway production of "Mame," starring Angela Lansbury. She and Ms. Lansbury reprised their characters in the 1983 revival. Ms. Francine last appeared on Broadway in 1987 as Mrs. Harcourt in the Lincoln Center revival of "Anything Goes," starring Patti LuPone. Miss Francine's film work included "Crocodile Dundee" and Fellini's "Juliet of the Spirits." On television she was best known for her portrayal of the conniving matriarch Flora Simpson Reilly in "Harper Valley P.T.A.," with Barbara Eden, in the early 1980's. A frequent performer on the summer stock circuit, Miss Francine was a regular presence at the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center in Waterford, Conn., where she taught at the annual cabaret symposium. Even after a 1992 stroke left her unable to speak, she would instruct students by pantomiming her commands or writing them on an erasable box designed for that purpose. No immediate relatives survive. # 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, 7 Dec 1999 09:47:32 EST From: Rcbrooksod@aol.com Subject: Re: (exotica) Re: Madeline Kahn In a message dated 12/6/99 12:16:21 PM Eastern Standard Time, nytab@pipeline.com writes: << You must be correct since her actual first film role was in the quite amusing short-subject Ingmar Bergman lampoon "The Dove" in 1968. >> Of course my favorite was . . . . . .

See It In Sound is another fantastic Esquivel album. The Brazil cut is amazing and could have been a huge influence on music if it were released and promoted well by its label. I would like to imagine Brian Wilson, Hendrix and the Beatles trying to out do this song. This album reminded me about how much I really like Esquivel. I have been playing all my Esquivel cds, including 1968/Genius. I cannot imagine life without all of the Esquivel albums. Everyone of his albums is a winner. The 2fers cds are such a bargain and everyone should get them before they go out of print. I was told they are selling quite poorly. Each of them is so revealing and it is so nice to hear the abums as a whole instead of a greatest hits collection. The Barnone collections were a nice introduction but certainly not the real thing. Give me the whole album of an artist this magnificant. The record industry misses another chance to use the most knowlagble person for the liner notes. As usual, what a shame.

Was a very long gig, about 2 hours. He used a brand new i-book, a "jen"-synth and a mike. The songs ranged from 80s influenced electronic pieces to scottish folk music. He even rapped like the Beasty Boys or sang ballads with Rick Wakeman-string-sounds. I liked quite a couple of songs, but often they sounded more like the sketch of a song. It always amazes me how English artists in general seem to be able to express themselves in melodies. Momus as a figure reminded me of Simon Fisher-Turner, a slim dandy with a good cultural education and general knowledge. Momus was very talkative to the audience in a nice and funny way. Although I didn't understand all of the lyrics, they had some refreshing subjects, like "Space Jews", a song about Einstein, Freud etc. described as angels from outer space coming to earth to lift up mankind. One song was a praise of his new i-book, which he described as the most beautiful thing in the world and his only friend. He said, Macintosh does not pay him for singing this. I could truly understand the message of this song though, as the desirability of these computers is almost sexual. About another song about Jeff Koons, "the greatest artist of all times" or so, he said he had made it on behalf of Koons, but he never got paid the 1000 $ by him. And... but, well, the songs are all on his records, I guess. This Japanese woman, who sings "I'm a kitten" in that "Everlasting Gobstopper" version, was also on stage once and addressed all "gays with girlfriends": "You can meet me, I will protect you forever". ?!? All things considered the concert was a bit long and many of the songs were just too rough to be fully enjoyable. Still it was worth going there and see that one-eyed wizard in person.

He was 57. The BMG recording artist died Dec. 3 at his Los Angeles home, his stepson, Lee Newman, said Tuesday. Larkin became a successful singer even though he was a lifelong stutterer. His work combined singing, rapping and scat, a jazz style involving singing nonsense syllables. He was popular on the European and Asian charts. http://www.westworld.com/~elson/scatman/ # 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: Wed, 08 Dec 1999 09:42:26 -0600 From: dymaxia@ripco.com Subject: Re: (exotica) Momus live at Atomic Cafe, Munich Jill Mingo wrote: > > At 13:52 08/12/99 +0100, you wrote: > > > >Saw Momus last night... mixed feelings about it. > > >This Japanese woman, who sings "I'm a kitten" in that "Everlasting > >Gobstopper" version, was also on stage once and addressed all "gays with > >girlfriends": "You can meet me, I will protect you forever". ?!? > > This would be Kahimi Karie. Who is a Goddess. Whose music defies description > in amazing Japanese pop. If you don't know her, you should. NO. That was Karin Komoto, who is one of the patrons on Stars Forever. She is following them on their European tour. She's not Japanese, she's Japanese-American. The "gays with girlfriends" bit is a reference to the song about her. I don't believe Kahimi Karie is performing with them on the European tour. I don't think that was her singing as Everlasting Gobstopper, tho. That was some 13-year-old girl. - -- Kerry # 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: Wed, 8 Dec 1999 07:47:36 -0800 (PST) From: chuck Subject: (exotica) Momus live at Atomic Cafe, Munich Your Tiki Gods are watching over you Mo! You are one lucky guy to catch Momus, one of the leaders of the modern soft pop movement. And it is doubly nice to see him with Kahimi Karie, who I agree with Jill, was the Japanese girl. I also trust Jill's opinion, since I understand she met Kahimi. I have her and I believe its the original version, of "I Am Akitten" and it is fantastic as is most of her stuff. What a voice! She goes back a ways also. I have a cd from Japan where she sings My Good Friend Charly, I believe, and its dated in the 80's.
