The original Planet of the Apes soundtrack. As much as I enjoy Danny Elfman
music, Jerry Goldsmith's original score is more memorable.

Dr. Demento 9/17/1978. Not yet known to the national
group of collectors, as it's my tape. And now my digits.

Llangres, STURA ... the recent release by these young Asturian folkies. There
are some wonderful instrumentals here (harp, bagpipes, flute, guitar, bodhran)
and at least one song with female vocals.

Rats, I meant to mention the URL in the remote chance someone might want to
hear some mp3s.

The Omen: The Essential Jerry Goldsmith Collection, conducted by Nic Raine.
I like Jerry Goldsmith scores. Since I haven't heard the original soundtracks
for most of these, I can't really give you a comparison to the composer's
actual music.

Found in a bin at the ReUse Center:
Lenny Dee, "Mr. Dee Goes to Town". Popular tunes of the day (mid 50s?) played
on a highly customized Hammond organ with a small band behind it.
Slightly more funky than the "Lawrence Welk Show", but quite listenable.

The Bollywood Brass Band, RAHMINIA. I think Leslie just described this
album as "insanely good." I haven't heard a brass band in a pop music
context in far too many years.

Takako Minekawa, CLOUDY CLOUD CALCULATOR. If you like synthesized J-Pop, this
would be a good one for you. Some of it sounds like Kraftwerk with a theremin.

Hm. Most J-pop makes me feel like removing my eyeballs with an ice pick, but
"Kraftwerk with a theremin" sounds intriguing. I wonder whether the risk of
impaired vision would be worth it.

John Barry, RAISE THE TITANIC film score (conducted by Nic Raine). Overall,
this is a pretty good instrumental soundtrack.

Dr. Demento from nearly 11 years ago, the 10/27/1991 show.
"With her Head Tucked Underneath Her Arm" by Rudy Vallee & Cyrill Smith is
playing right now. The tale of Ann Bolyne.

Kapela Ze Wsi Warsaza ("Band from the Village of Warsaw"), WIOSNA LUDU.
Rather excellent, percussion driven, Polish folk band on mostly
traditional material.

Philip Glass's Symphony No. 5, a vocal/choral setting of sacred texts
from various cultures. The opening of Genesis at the start of the
second movement is the best part.

Delerium - Semantic Spaces. This is a very soothing CD. Nice ambient
electronica with some world rhythyms and vocals from Kristy Thirsk of the Rose
Chronicles.

Shakira, "Underneath Your Clothes"
also Neil Sedaka, "Laughter In The Rain"
Last Tuesday's Biography on A&E was on Neil Sedaka, and was quite
charming. I was familiar somewhat with "Calendar Girl" and "Breaking
Up Is Hard To Do," but I wasn't aware that he composed the music for
this bright and charming little AM radio tune of the 1970s. Even this
song is almost too old for me, except that my mother used radio often
as a babysitter, including AM radio, and so it rang familiar for me.
It's very tempting to go out and get Time-Life's AM Gold series
collection so I can relive that period of my childhood when music was a
bit more gentle.
