Teasing the Korean

For Christmas, I got my wife the Beatles on Ed Sullivan DVD. It's four complete shows, including the original commercials that aired. It's fascinating to see the Beatles within the context of that period, something that has been lost, in part to the group's own conservative and humorless marketing of the Beatles' brand.

Jane Birkin had some very nice things to say about JB.

Love the Epic EP with "Why Spend the Dark Night with You."

Ha! For the record (no pun intended), I was actually spinning the Junior College album.

Dave Brubeck - Jazz Goes to Votech - Columbia (6 eye mono)

Oh, I thought you guys were talking about the TV show host.

I do, because MY WIFE owned it before we got together!!! I figured any woman with Russ Meyer films is worth hanging on to. I was right.

Chico Buarque - Vida - Philips (Brasil)

Will he show some nipple?

Armando Trovaioli - Treasure of San Gennaro OST - Buddah

O'Donel Levy - Black Velvet - Groove Merchant

Edwin Starr - Hell up in Harlem OST - Motown John Barry - The Knack and How to Get It OST - UA (black label, mono)

Rosengarden/Kraus - Percussion Playful and Pretty - RCA Custom (stereo)

Alec Wilder - Octet & Frank Sinatra Conducts the Music of Alec Wilder - Columbia (green label masterworks).

Second is better. First is a drag.

The picture above was the LP cover of Brass Shout. For the CD twofer reissue, that was the cover. But there is an earlier cover that is different from the one you describe, chewy, which is the one to have if you can find it.

Who shops there? I thought all the Japanese vinyl junkies were in the US or Brazil.

Tough call on which one to get. The second one contains "Seance on a Wet Afternoon," but it also has Duran Duran.

How appropriate that, considering the topic at hand, the Universal Music COO is named Max Hole.

If there is, I don't get it either.

Yes, this is incredible. You can't go wrong with Chico O'Farrill's jazzier work from this period.

P.S. I Love You.
