Teasing the Korean

Mundell Lowe is a really great arranger. The vibes in "Satan" lineup really add a desperate, caffeine-jag quality to that album. I interviewed Mundell Lowe about 10 years ago and he holds this album in high regard.

Then why did you post those pictures you took of me on the interwebz?

It only took Bach a few hundred years to figure this out. Slow learner.

SATAN IN HIGH HEELS!!!

Collectibility be damned, I LOVE these kind of things! I have some Pete Rugolo albums on which the space-age bachelor owner wrote in the margins the proper bass and treble setting.

Years ago I got a huge haul of soul-jazz and groove LPs from Goosby Jones, who was a DJ on Tampa R&B station WTMP. He always wrote his name in felt tip in large letters in the margins on the back. Always happy to find his records - If I never heard the title, seeing his name on it guaranteed that it was good!

So no one noticed the music? I'm assuming it was dull enough to ignore, if not awful enough to call attention to itself.

Did you ever have the pleasure of meeting Mr. Gordon and ask him what the hell he was thinking?

The Lemon Pipers - Green Tambourine - Buddah (stereo) Another Stereo Jack's bargain! "Shoemaker of Leatherwear Square" is a psychedelic masterpiece!

...But he went a little overboard stamping his name and address ALL OVER the front and back covers of his records.

Zoot Sims - New Beat Bossa Nova - Colpix (mono) Another Stereo Jack's bargain!

Mono or stereo?

O Melhor de Ataulfo Alves - Elenco (stereo) A Stereo Jack's find.

Suck what? Sorry Chuck, I forgot you were from the midwest. "Does it suck" roughly means "Is it bad."

Does the soundtrack suck?

I've had a bootleg for years, but the real deal just arrived in the mail and it is AMAZING.

Who is the main composer, or is it a various artists thing?

Marius Constant - 24 Preludes for Orchestra - Heliodor (stereo)

McCoy Tyner - Reevaluation: The Impulse Years - ABC (stereo) From Stereo Jack's

I know there were at least two. Were there more?

Ellington's version of "All My Loving" sounds like an outtake from "Afro Bossa."

John Barry - Petulia OST - Warner (green label, stereo) An overlooked gem.

You're probably right. I felt much better after I unloaded my belly dancing albums and Baja Marimba Band collection.

I bought it and immediately unloaded the Beatles' own inferior interpretation.
