In terms of "new music" I probably buy more Arabic music than any other genre. There's some interesting CDs like "Mozart in Egypt" which features Egyptian musicians playing (you guessed it) Mozart compositions, "Mambo el Soudani" by Salamat (the title tune includes fake Perez Prado grunts), "1001 Nights" by Mad Sheer Khan, Radio Tarifa's blend of Arab/Spanish music, etc. Lots and lots of great stuff. "Mozart in Egypt" works a little better than the earlier "Lamberana: Bach to Africa" CD, though both have their moments. A good general overview is "The Rough Guide" CD for North Africa, though it is not as adventuresome as some of the artists I've just mentioned. But is it exotica? I don't see how you can call traditional ethnic music exotica. But "Mozart in Egypt" may qualify.

From Maui With Love was the one that was done while Denny was at a resort on Maui in the late 70's and early 80's. It includes his sort of "signature song," "I Will Love You Forever and Ever" (which can be heard on the Don Tiki CD). The owners did it as a promotion thing but ended up giving about half the records to Denny and he in turn sold them during his act. He has one left and it was sitting on his piano when I visited him. I picked it up and looked at it and it had that primitive look of a non-major label album cover. This is definitely something someone on the List should put on CD. I would be more than happy to aid in production distribution if someone has a decent copy. Email me off List if so warranted. BTW, one of the receptionists at the resort I stayed at on Maui for my conference last January remembered Denny. She had worked at the same resort that Denny played at. She said he liked to eat those chocolate covered ice cream ball, called bon-bons, that the restaurant had. I related this story to him and he got a little mad (at her story, not me) and said, "I never sat around eating bonbons, playing those acts were hard work! You can't believe everything people tell you, Bob." I dropped the conversation.

I scored exactly no records in NYC, found it the most overpriced record buying experience I've not enjoyed in a long time. Some shockers include 50p chairty shop records at $50, Esquivels at $200, middle of the road funk albums at $75 and record shops explaining to me that things are overpriced, so if there was anything I was looking for I should negotiate. Bollocks. I did see John Barry's The Wrong Box soundtrack ($75). Still had an extravagant time and came home with two Barcelona chairs, so I was satisfied.

I entirely agree. A lot of comps are lame but not this one. Besides the two tracks mentioned the "Ironside" theme by Alan Tew is superb as is "Staccatto" by the Eliminators. Definitely worth having in an age when a lot of comps lack quality control. ( I think the first "Sound Gallery" comp is a gem too, but others might disagree). for what it's worth...

This is indeed true and a word of warning to anyone who lets any piece of software do a default install... Realplayer by default installs a feature allowing info on your connection to be sent back to "assure quality" etc. Netscape tries to do the same but I think it has the decency to ask first. Don't use the Microsoft equivalents (though they're still installed - against my will!) but I can't see why they'd behave any differently. Still I can't help but think this is a lot of hype and many of us still remember the non event that was Y2K! If you're nervous, load up Zonealarm and if you want total control, set it so it prompts you on every byte that goes up or down the line. Its like anything else in life, common sense will usually keep you out of trouble. > It so happens that a standard install of Microsoft Windows 95/8/2k/NT will > leave you wide-open to the world, especially if you do any kind of > drive/printer sharing - but there are simple (and free) things you can do to > keep the sharing active, but not create the digital equivalent of your pants > around your ankles on main street. Like you maybe have a choice to NOT load up the whole Microsoft package! I mentioned this before but without NT and special (non default) formatting of an NTFS partition (not possible with 95 or 98) there is no obvious protection offered up within the operating system itself. It's one thing if you have dial up access, another with a cable modem and yet another if you operate a web server as each has different issues. I've yet to be convinced this is a necessity for a dial-up access user since there is no owned IP address or consistant pattern of use so vulnerability is much less. I think the ZoneAlarm software is among the least intrusive as it will tell you what's going on, will create a file to log activity, and is easily uninstallable if you decide it isn't necessary. It's free and easy to find via any search engine. I think this all began last time with a discussion on Napster?

I listen to a lot of jazz too. I stand by what I said. I think most of the Coffy soundtrack is lame. I think it does have a few good points, but a few good points does not make a "classic" album. In *MY* opinion, and it's mine and no-one else's, a classic album has almost ALL good cuts, such as Superfly, Trouble Man and Black Caesar. You'd have a hard time arguing that's not what I think, because it is. Quite frankly, if a person is so sensative to opinions that disagree with their own, they may as well take the blades out and just get it over with, cuz frankly, everywhere I go, people's got opinions. I can't seem to steer clear of 'em. Anyway. I was disenchanted with Coffy, had my ass whooped seriously by Mandingo's Savage Rite, was pleasantly pleased by Barbarella, was very disappointed with Death Wish, think Trouble Man is possibly the best thing Marvin Gaye has ever done, think Don Tiki is the balls, Martin Denny is cool, Les Baxter is fine and Arthur Lyman and Dimitri from Paris are overrated. I like slushies over slush puppies, enjoy a good game of Canasta, like to watch Scooby Doo and think Boston's first album is a classic. Anyone who doesn't agree, should dispatch themselves immediately, so's I don't have to look at your filthy face ever again. ;) Seeya!

I am assuming Miles Davis's Blue Christmas has been released on CDR - does anyone know which? It's not on the big costly "Complete Columbia Recordings" (which I think was the label that released the vinyl sampler "Jingle Bell Jazz"). Or who the vocalist on the song was?
