The folks who made bubblegum records knew what they were doing was disposable and in the process made some of the least pretentious rock n' roll of the late 60's - early 70's. Luis P.S. I love Stories, the Carpenters, Vanity Faire, Christie and The Archies. The US Tee Set album never grabbed me, but I love Dutch pop sounds and i know they made a bunch of records, so I'm not going to write them off. "Upside Down" is a great song. Maybe there should be a new list. _________________________________________________________________ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 31 Dec 2000 18:52:17 -0500 From: "John Trembly" Subject: Re: bomp-digest V2000 #746 I just did!

Then this morning as I open up Izzy's (after spending the night in the Watchungs in a hotel because of the storm, but hey, D&B paid), there it is sitting on the counter!

That's why is my fave producer: Phil Spector & Brian Wilson are amazing as pop producers, but Meek was able to produce any kind of style. "Come On Back", "Crawdaddy Simone", "Thou Shalt Not Steal", "Telstar", "Questions I Can't Answer" are a few of the "must" he produced.

Yep, at least the Have I the Right lp is on Interphon. How much more was there, and was it all released here in the US, too? Seems I remember a 2 cd best of coming out a while ago (import only) which none of the damn stores I was dealing with could get me! I have the above mentioned lp and the two tracks mentioned by others (Can't Get Through to You, a B-side from '64, and That Lovin' Feelin', an A-side from '66). That Lovin' Feelin' should have been remade, no joke, and no disrespect intended, as a disco tune; give it a listen and tell me that beat doesn't totally lend itself to that. From the lp I have, another single, Colour Slide is also a favorite of mine. I should toss this platter on for another listen; it's been a while now!

Une cloche sonne, sonne Sa voix d'écho en écho Dit au monde qui s'étonne: "C'est pour Jean-François Nicot" C'est pour acceuillir une âme Une fleur qui s'ouvre au jour A peine, à peine une flamme Encore faible qui réclame Protection, tendresse, amour... Village au fond de la vallée Loin des chemins, loin des humains Voici qu'après dix-neuf années Coeur en émoi, le Jean-François Prend pour femme la douce Élise Blanche comme fleur de pommier Devant Dieu, dans la vieille église Ce jour il se sont mariés... Toutes les cloches sonnent, sonnent Leurs voix d'écho en écho Merveilleusement couronnent La noce à François Nicot "Un seul coeur, une seule âme" Dit le prêtre, "et pour toujours" "Soyez une pure flamme" "Qui s'élève et qui proclame" "La grandeur de votre amour." Village au fond de la vallée Des jours, des nuits, le temps a fui Voici qu'en la nuit étoilée Un coeur s'endort, François est mort... Car toute chair est comme l'herbe Elle est comme la fleur des champs Epis, fruits mûrs, bouquets et gerbes, Hélas vont en se desséchant... Une cloche sonne, sonne Elle chante dans la mort Obsédante et monotone Elle redit aux vivants: "Ne tremblez pas coeurs fidèles" "Dieu vous fera signe un jour" "Vous trouverez sous son aile" "Avec la Vie Eternelle" "L'éternité de l'amour..." ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 31 Dec 2000 23:23:47 -0800 (PST) From: brian marshall Subject: Favorite Finds of 2000 Hello everyone and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! WOOOO HOOOOO!!!!! Anyway, it's about two hours into the new year as I write this. I've been sitting around drinking Pepsi and spinning some 45s while the Abbott and Costello marathon rolls on on AMC. I've looked at some of the Best of 2000 lists and there is indeed a lot of killer stuff on those lists. However, a very large portion of my musical time this year has been spent collecting original copies of 45s. Yes, the collecting bug not only bit me, it infected me! I've spent beyond way too much money on older 45s this year. But I do indeed love the way the 45s just explode through my speakers. So, in the tradition of the best of list, I'd like to share some of my favorite 45 finds of 2000. Be warned: this list is LONG, and it may take me two e-mails, so if you get too bored, you can always hit delete.

Let's not forget the Screamin' Lord Sutch stuff, for heaven's sake! And I only have three Syndicats tracks, but like Crawdaddy Simone, the other two, Howlin' For My Baby and What to Do are smokers. How much more of their stuff is available? You're absolutely right about the range of material he covered, from Lonnie Donegan, to Frankie Vaughan's recording of Behind the Green Door, instro bands ranging from surf to western to the whacky outerspace tunes by The Blue Men, and raving rockers like the ones above. One of his goofiest space songs has got to be Sky Men by Geoff Goddard--the robotic alien voice ("Be not a-fraid... for we come... in peace") is hysterical!

For >some reason the Donovan song on "Sixties Superstars" is actually from a >videotape (not a kinescope) and has excellent video but unfortunately suffers >from the same annoying wow and flutter as everything else on the tape. Actually, that could as easily be a problem originating when the copies of the tapes were run off. If you still have a copy of the tape, you should see if you have the problem on BOTH the Hi Fi and the linear audio tracks. If it's on one and not on the other, it's a manufacturing problem, not a mastering problem, and it might be worth trying yet another copy. By the way, someone asked about a track listing for Frat Party--I don't have the full list (the rental store that had it sold it off before I could dub the damn thing), but it's a fun collection. I know it features The Kingsmen doing Louie Louie, The Isley Bros doing Shout, a KILLER clip of Roy Head (man, he could move) doing Treat Her Right, I THINK The Olympics doing Good Lovin', and definitely Zsa Zsa doing a goofy High Heeled Sneakers, dahlink, and The Hondells doing Little Honda. The Groovy Gals tape is fun, too (I especially love The Toys and Fontella Bass clips). I forget if it's Groovy Gals or one of the Soul tapes that closes with an AMAZINGLY hot Ooh Pooh Pa Doo by Tina Turner, marred only by them rolling the credits (for the tape, not the TV episode) before she's finished howling it out.
