Teasing the Korean

P.S. I Love You.

"The Knack" and "The Ipcress File" are my two favorite non-Bond John Barry scores.

Turning off your mind, relaxing, and floating downstream is no longer the exclusive province of "the young." Everyone is doing it, from a middle-aged accountant in Peoria on his smoke break, to a pretty housewife in suburban Connecticut planning a fondue party. The vibrations of today are in the air - we need only open our hearts and minds to receive them.

Great, will I need a PIN to play my EMI CDs now?

Very difficult to recommend comps by prolific film composers. In addition to the large catalogs and stylistic shifts common to many artists, film composers' output is further varied by the genres of the films they've worked in. My ideal Barry comp would include the Connery-era Bond flicks and a few select others from that era. Others would say "Born Free" or "Dances with Wolves." My suggestions would be far too subjective to provide a decent starting point.

Tadd Dameron - The Magic Touch - Riverside (OJC reissue, stereo)

Future uncertain for TV's Madmen

That's interesting. I'm not sure I even own any CC CDs. If I do, I'll have to try this.

To keep all discussion about Stereo Jack's conveniently in one thread: For the next several weeks I will be spinning some of my favorite vinyl that I scored over the years at Jack's. First up, from the dollar easy listening bin: The18th Century Corporation - Bacharach Baroque - UA (orange and pink label, stereo) Featuring Siegfried Schwab of "Vampyros Lesbos" fame.

Anyone mention Marion Brown?

Stereo Jack's was such a huge part of my Boston/Cambridge experience. It's like they're tearing down Harvard.

Later I will compile a list of some of the AMAZING vinyl I picked up over the years at Jack's, stuff I've never seen before or since...

Wave and Tide are mostly if not all instrumental. Stone Flower is a mix, more vocal than instrumental IIRC.

As I've written elsewhere, I still have dreams about Stereo Jack's! And I left Boston about 8 years ago! I was back last year and of course scored some amazing stuff. Jack, my two favorite record stores EVER are Stereo Jack's and Princeton Record Exchange (back when the latter was great in the early 1990s). Best of luck - I hope this is happening for good reasons.

Especially if red wine is involved.

PM sent.

Incidentally, we wound up watching "Girl on a Motorcycle," which we hadn't seen in a while.

While I was having some fun with my posts in this thread, I have a substantial Bill Evans accumulation, but I unloaded this one because the cover is so hideous. That and the Rhodes, which is not suited for this kind of music. Presentation is important to me.

Many drug addicts grow beards to hide the facial ulcerations from infections and lack of fatty tissue in their cheeks. Evans had a beard to his dying last days. Thanks. Now explain the leisure suits.

Here you go:

I did, a few weeks ago.

Michelle... Here There and Everywhere... And of course... The Fool on the Hill. Whenever Singers Unlimited did a Beatles tune, it always BLEW AWAY the Beatles' own version. That's it, we just finished fondue for dinner and we're going to watch either Purple Noon or Girl on a Motorcycle. Have a good week! - Your beloved TTK.
