The zero-gravity nookie sessions were all in the cause of finding which positions work best in a weightless environment. But the men and women volunteers created their own atmosphere as they went through TEN different lovemaking tests, says astronomer Pierre Kohler. Six positions used an inflatable tunnel with WALL straps. They were designed to hold the lovers together - though the other four positions allowed the couple to FLOAT freely about the capsule. Kohler, French author of many books on space, claims he has seen secret files on the 1996 sexperi-ments. He says NASA document number 12-571-3570 reveals that mixed teams of astronauts were sent on four missions to boldly go where no-one had gone before. Well, at least not Yanks - though Russian Svetlana Savitskaia was rumoured to have had sex with one or more of the four men she spent a month with on the now-defunct Salyut-7 space station in 1982. And in 1991, Britain's first female astronaut Helen Sharman, then 28, said she'd had "fantastic experiences" on the Mir station with four cosmonauts. This is not to suggest any impropriety - though one Russian said the crew had "great fun" with Helen, who was videoed floating around in a pink nightie! Now Kohler, who makes his claims in his new book The Final Mission, says: "Sex in space could have been tried out many times. "But the NASA experiments were possibly the first to find the most effective ways of doing it if couples had to spend a long time in space."

He was 50. Wolfson was known as the granddaddy of body boarding and dubbed ``Dr. 360'' for becoming the first to spin on a wave. In September 1998, Wolfson learned he had an inoperable tumor in his esophagus and right lung. Two months later, he took sleeping pills and paddled out to sea in a suicide attempt. He was rescued and changed his outlook on life, seeking chemotherapy and alternative treatments and resuming his passion, surfing. His story became the subject of numerous newspaper and television reports. - -------- *Ofra Haza JERUSALEM (AP) -- Ofra Haza, who melded ancient Yemenite Jewish devotional poetry with 1980s techno music to become one of Israel's first international pop music stars, died Wednesday. She was 41. Haza's signature song was the defiant 1979 hit, ``The Tart's Song.'' Her album ``Yemenite Songs,'' released in 1985, was an instant hit in Israel. Its signature track, ``Im Ninalu,'' (``If the Gates of Heaven were Locked'') expanded a devotional poem by 17th century rabbi Shalom Shabazi into a modern love song. Haza performed in Oslo when Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, Foreign Minister Shimon Peres and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1994, and she sang the role of Moses' mother in the 1998 film ``The Prince of Egypt.''

I have some vinyl albums by Ofra Haza and Fifty Gates of Wisdom (Yemenite Songs) is probably the best and was the inspiration for the dance tracks in "Shaday" that made her famous. She was actually launched in the western world when UK dj duo Coldcut stole her voice for an Eric B/Rakim remix, being one of the best examples of the cultural and promotional function of sampling.

The previous Senor Coconut CD was a mix of old & new Latin stylings with plenty of electronics & computer manipulation. It was very highly regarded and is now out of print. Some list members have complained that this new project actually sounds too "authentic" -- i.e., one person said it sounded like Perez Prado had come to life and recorded these Kraftwerk covers with his orchestra, and there was little to none of the techno/electronica or hard drive glitchery added to it. I think Other Music is selling the new CD at closer to $30, a bit lower than the other prices quoted. FWIW, I have some Senor Coconut from the first CD on my compilation for the exotica exchange ring, if you're part of that. The string quartet cover versions of Kraftwerk songs by the Balanesque (sp?)

Galbi from the record was a club hit worldwide. Exotic percussion in abundance. From the liners: "By using petrol cans and domestic trays, the Yemenite Jews circumvented the ban on musical instruments imposed by orthodox Muslims,... Played here by Chaim Gispan, this percussion features strongly in the striking arrangements..." Lots of yummy congos, timbales, and other wooden or metal percussion along with plain old drums on the disk. Nothing compares to hearing Ofra Haza sing though.

I avoided getting it thinking exotica samples with modern beats would bore me. Some of these songs are straight ahead Now Sounds and could have been released in the late 60's.or put on the InFlight Karminsky Brother Comp. Most have more modern beats but these beats are just cool and they blend perfect with the now sounds quality of the music. If this is a direction modern music is taking I hope to hop on this band wagon. These songs could easily fit on the Blow Up comp and must really sound refreshing on the dancefloors around the world. Any other great comps like this? Easy listening in the Big Easy Chuck __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!

None of them have nearly as many records as eBay. Some only have 5 LPs and maybe 20 cds. And the prices are seem to be much higher than on eBay where there is more competition. I think I saw that almost 200,000 records were up for auction today on eBay. I'd be glad to try some other place but ?????? There are a couple of record collector only auction sites but they too have almost nothing --- 30 or so records, stuff like Hendrix on Reprise, easy stuff.

One night about 5 years ago he was performing the song "Don Henley Must Die" somewhere or other. Henley happened to be in the audience and got up on stage and joined Nixon in a rousing rendition of the song. Nixon, momentarily taken aback, announced that the final performance of the song was just completed due to good sportsmanship on the part of Henley. Nixon immediately renamed the song. Its title? "Michael Bolton Must Die"!

Also a CD-R will do, and I'll send the original anyway. The last time that I enthusiastically reviewed a disc (Ravi Harris & the Prophets), the review was saluted in the list as a hail to a true piece of vinylitc shit. So there's a mighty good chance you're gonna like this. Frankly, I didn't but, you know, my leading motto has always been "your trash, my treasure", and I guess this must also work vice versa. Tracks are: Fred Bongusto: Sesso e volentieri Fred Bongusto: Something Crazy Nedo Benvenuti: Peccati a Venezia - 1 Nedo Benvenuti: Peccati a Venezia - 2 Franco Campanino: Je suis l'amour Franco Campanino: L'attrazione Gianfranco Plenizio: Valse satyrique Gianfranco Plenizio: Tango del conte Stelvio Cipriani: Ruta de los vulcanes Stelvio Cipriani: Verso il matrimonio Michel Colombier: Batucada erotica Fran=E7ois Rauber: Antoine et Sebastien Piero Piccioni: Preludio e canto Alfonso Santisteban: Casta e pura Willy Brezza: Eros Perversion Giacomo dell'Orso: Via aerea Piero Umiliani: Scusi, lei conosce il sesso?

Does it get any better than this album? I don't know if you'll find it better, worse or sideways, but keep an eye out for Mystic Moods' "English Muffins" -- late 60s Brit pop given the MM treatment, including ambient sounds recorded in (presumably) London. Includes such tunes as: England Swings Colour Of My Love [note British spelling of "colour"] Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes) Massachusetts and several Beatles numbers, including a string section vs. fuzz guitar rendition of "Something".

SEX IN SPACE: It's complete lunar-cy IAN SPARKS ASTRONAUTS had sex on the American space shuttle - with the full blessing of NASA bosses. The zero-gravity nookie sessions were all in the cause of finding which positions work best in a weightless environment. But the men and women volunteers created their own atmosphere as they went through TEN different lovemaking tests, says astronomer Pierre Kohler. Six positions used an inflatable tunnel with WALL straps. They were designed to hold the lovers together - though the other four positions allowed the couple to FLOAT freely about the capsule. Kohler, French author of many books on space, claims he has seen secret files on the 1996 sexperi- ments. He says NASA document number 12-571-3570 reveals that mixed teams of astronauts were sent on four missions to boldly go where no-one had gone before. Well, at least not Yanks - though Russian Svetlana Savitskaia was rumoured to have had sex with one or more of the four men she spent a month with on the now-defunct Salyut-7 space station in 1982. And in 1991, Britain's first female astronaut Helen Sharman, then 28, said she'd had "fantastic experiences" on the Mir station with four cosmonauts. This is not to suggest any impropriety - though one Russian said the crew had "great fun" with Helen, who was videoed floating around in a pink nightie! Now Kohler, who makes his claims in his new book The Final Mission, says: "Sex in space could have been tried out many times. "But the NASA experiments were possibly the first to find the most effective ways of doing it if couples had to spend a long time in space." ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info exotica" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email exotica@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 25 Feb 2000 00:42:38 -0800 From: Paul Subject: (exotica) Grandmaster Flash "Superrapping Theme" on ENJOY > Remember a while back I asked the list about the identity of a piece I had > on a tape by Grandmaster Flash?
