Mickey

Marisa Tomei is the stripper in 'The Wrestler'

You must know by now that I'm a terminal romantic. I just got some wild associations that made my USA hormones run again. 'The Wrestler' is Mickey Rourke's come back - and he deserves it - much hailed here in the press. And then 'The Boss' made a song for this movie. And then I found this special [1986, live, New York] version of 'Born in the USA'.
And then I remembered Mickey's 1986 movie 'Nine 1/2 Weeks' with Kim Basinger. Just all makes me drip ... ;)

Club Med VII

Sophia, Constantinople; mixture of Byzantine and Orthodox Christianity

At last we arrived in bellydance country. Now I need your guidance. This style of music goes all over the south-eastern mediterranian; Turkey, Anatolia, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Egypt and many other countries around the Mediterranean. There are definite regional and historical styles that we (from Amsterdam) can not keep apart. If you want to comment, please feel free.

- World Championship Bellydancing, 2008, Lebanon-TV (tube)
- Fadwa is from Morocco - but she was too sexy ... ;)
- Hot song from a 'Best-Of' belly album - it made my girl move

Ian

Ian Dury, 1942-2000

Shit, he is pushing the daisies since 2000. This guy learned me how to use the English language. He made me aware that there are a zillions flavors; even the 'funny' racist Indian accents. The song from Essex (UK) is one of my all time favorites. You have to do a low-budget holiday and smell the locals to appreciate this song.

All crazyness on a sticky (let's get serious now). Together with The Kinks, Ian Dury is mentioned very often as most influentual for the recent UK independant (indie) youngsters. Just a few completely wild UK indie songs;
- Ian Dury & the Blockheads - Billericay Dickie (from Essex)
- Lily Allen - Alfie (her brother)
- The Kinks - I'm the Apeman (that's me)

Enjoy

Club Med VI

Pristina, 28.06.2004

Belo Platno is a folk band from Kosovo (where Serbian and Albanian friends were killing each other). If it was not for this music, I would have skipped these black pages in history.
- this is a nice song
- and another one [with a bunch of local instruments]
Both joyfull songs from these tormented regions.

Enjoy

Brel

I blogged Jaques Brel before. He is a great Belgian singer and has semi-god status for the few conny-sewers. You must like Jaques Brel (or not) for his intense emotional style of singing. He was also way above the Belgian French-Dutch dispute that now makes Belgium a 'failed-state'.

Here is his tribute to our flat-lands;
- a nice clip from the tube
- En Francais
- Op z'n Hollands

Enjoy

Wende

Wende deserves a more sexy picture

Wende Snijders is a Dutch hotty. She sings poppy-jazzy songs in English, Dutch and French language, with some sexy extra spice in her voice and her lyrics.

She does Jaques Brel covers - and you have to be very confident to cover this Semi-God of the Low-Lands. It's all from a trusted source, because my nephew (who provided the links) has a keen eye on Brel.

- Her 'Au Suivant' song is very Brel and very sexy.
- And what about her 'Come Together' cover.
- The 'De Nuttelozen van de Nacht' is a great Brel cover.
- Wende's 2008 full 'Chante!' album comes in two parts.

[Thank You Very Much Nephew]

Club Med V

Before we are crossing the Aegean See, we strole around in Greece. This is Herodote territory. He had a great story about the 20 year adventures of King Sailor Odysseus of Ithaca.
Odysseus had himself bound to the mast of his ship by his crew while passing The-Island-Of-The-Sirens to avoid the temptations of their sexy sounds.
When he got home after 20 years, he killed all the lovers of his wife Penelope with a bow & arrow, so heavy, only he could handle it properly [just wondering what he did with his wife].
Wow - so great stories.

Here is a Great Greek Folk album; Domna Samiou - Kaneloriza. The nice thing is that the .rar expands into Greek language tokens which is totally incomprehandeable for non-Greek people. Here is just a sexy sounding song to get you some idea.

[Greece = no belly-dance, but we are very close now]

Enjoy

Club Med IV

Kocani Orkestar, Macedonia

This album actually triggered me to do the Club Med series. The Kocani Orkestar is from Macedonia, a small country with borders to Greece. It's actually a Balkan country, semi-Mediteranian. They play an amazing mix of contemporary Jazz and their rootz music with lots of brass and wood. It just brought me down on my knees.

- This is a nice one from the tube to get you acquainted with these guys. I guess "bellyjazz" is not far from the spot.
- The Red Bull song sounds very sexy [17MB.] and you already can hear the bellydance music from Turkey and Lebanon.
- Their "Kocani Orkestar meet Paolo Fresu & Antonello Salis" album is big and comes in two parts of 90MB. each.

Enjoy

Club Med III

The Quaker Boys, 1928

I had the Canto Malavita album in mind for this blog. But now I remember that I posted it a some time ago. It's a very local and folkish type of music from Italy about 'Ndrangheta, Camurra and Mafia. There was recently an impressive (natural) movie about Napolitan Camurra that I still have to hunt down.
The (poor) south should be the opposite from the (rich) north of Italy, but PM Berlusconi recently showed that half of the Italians are still potential fascist criminals.
The Non Su' Lupu song really makes your feet move.
"Funny guys these Romans" (Obelix).
Enjoy the great music.

Club Med II

I Muvrini, March 2008

OK, here we go, starting with the isle of Corsica (south of France).
I made about five holiday trips in my earlier years to this great island. There I was treated with some life sings at my med-beach-bar in Calvi. So great memories. And I have another story up my sleeve about the restaurant there way up the Calvi citadel.

I Muvrini is a world-famous band from Corsica. They play local and traditional music in their own Corsican language, acapella, voices only, polyphonics etc. all great stuff.

1. I Muvrini - Fiaccule Di Speranza (acapella)
2. I Muvrini - Requiem (acapella)
3. I Muvrini - Rispondimi Ie (with choir & music)

And this song just grabs you by the balls / by the tits (volume up);
4. I Muvrini - Ecco Bella

Oh (btw) they made this Amsterdam song, probably a cover from Jaques Brel;
Amsterdam - by I Muvrini
Amsterdam - by Jaques Brel

I must make a blog about JB - he was so great

Enjoy

I Love Her

Lily Allen at the Solidays Festival - July 2007

She is yummy, she's from London and she didn't let me down - so far. This is her second album and that is always a creative hurdle for a 23 yo. (or any other artist). It's great poppy music again and funny lyrics. She got four out of five stars in my newspaper, marking her independent (indie) UK style and comparing her with Ian Dury & the Blockheads. Despite her media exposure she obviously found the time to make this album - the signs of a maturing pro.

Oh, in case you missed, I'm stoned in love with Lily ... LOL

The Fuck you very very very much song is about George Busch (a former USA president). The link to the album is from Italy (Thanks Italy).

Tracklist:
01. Everyone's At It
02. The Fear
03. Not Fair
04. 22
05. I Could Say
06. Back To The Start
07. Never Gonna Happen

Bob

Bob Dylan in an evening NFF concert

Bob was introduced for a broader audience by Joan Baez at the Newport Folk Festival in 1963. From then on his star got rising. This all black & white movie shows 'the making of' Bob Dylan in his NFF performances in 1963-1965, developing from a clumsy shy boy to a self-confident performer. This is a great 83:00 minute 'must have' music movie for all the the Dylanatics. It really made my eyes wet.

The movie comes in about 10x85MB. parts;
Bob Dylan - Newport 1963-1965 part.001
Bob Dylan - Newport 1963-1965 part.002

Buddy

Prototype of a 1950's Rock-and-Roll band; guitar (Fender Stratocaster), acoustic bass and drums. Bill Haley and his Comets were pretty much in the same setting.

A bit late, but it's always good to remember Buddy Holly (died in a plane crash on February 3, 1959, the day that the music died). He was defining for the next generation Rock & Roll musicians. Don McLean made the American Pie song about Buddy's death.

Buddy Holly (and his Crickets) made many more great songs then his few famous hits. And he basically composed most of them himself. Here is a 2xCD Ultimate album with 50 great songs;

Buddy Holly - The Ultimate Collection - CD1

Club Med

This is a new project. I will post a Mediterranean music tour. I had already had some stuff on my HD and now I found some more. It is generally called 'world-music' and this strange music sometimes just grabs you right by the balls / tits. I try to restrict myself to the surroundings of the Mediterranean Sea to keep it a manageable project; and it includes some of my belly dance favorites ... ;-)

You have to Wiki, Google and find additional information for yourself, because it's all pretty exotic stuff (they are world famous in their village). Here are just a few songs to let you know what to expect;

[1] This is the 20MB./8:00min. live Gajda song from the Macedonian Kocani Orkestar. The hottest parts are in the end.
[2] This is the polyphonic song Fiaccule_Di_Speranza from the I Muvrini band from the isle of Corsica. I blogged them before but most links are dead.
[3] Belo Platno is from South Serbia and makes some great folk music. Here is their Gugu Tino song.

Berlin

Lou Reed in concert at St. Ann's Warehouse

This is about Lou Reed's 2006 live concert performance of his 1973 concept album "Berlin", filmed over five nights at St. Ann's Warehouse in Brooklyn, New York. Here is the album/soundtrack in .mp3 format:

Berlin, Lou Reed, September 2006 at St. Ann's, part01.rar
Berlin, Lou Reed, September 2006 at St. Ann's, part02.rar

Here is the movie/docu:
IMDb: /title/tt1093836/
Links: Catfritz
Director: Julian Schnabel
Duration: 81 minutes
Size: 980 MB.

"Berlin" was not very well received in the USA in 1973. But by now it goes as one of Lou's masterpieces.

Michal-94 from Canada wrote:
Lou Reed's brilliant musicianship and Schnabel's deft hand at directing combined with gorgeous rich sound makes this the finest rock and roll concert movie of my life. The huge band, including choir, back up singers,horns and strings held down by the greatest rhythm section ever were filmed and recorded such that Lou Reed's stellar performance and incredible poetry were allowed to shine in all their unique genius. Lou's vocal performance was brilliant in its execution and in the recording. His back up musicians were outstanding. The solo's, including the vocal solos, were delightful in their musicality and originality. Schnabel's sets and the his daughter's performance enhanced the visual pleasure created through simple unaffected camera work superbly shot and edited.

William

William of Orange & Nassau by Adriaen Thomasz Key, Mauritshuis, The Hague

William of Orange & Nassau (William the Silent) 1533-1584 is the founder of the Netherlands and the national hymn is all about him. I'm not sure what made us run, but we practiced 329 times the first and the sixth verse all night long. These two are usually played at official happenings.

The (one verse) music is from the Dutch Navy Band.

Wilhelmus van Nassouwe
Ben ick van Duytschen Bloedt,
Den Vaderland ghetrouwe
Blijf ick tot inden doet;
Een Prince van Orangien
Ben ick vry onverveert.
Den Coninck van Hispangien
Heb ick altijt gheeert.

Mijn schilt ende betrouwen
Zijt ghy, O Godt, mijn Heer.
Op U soo wil ick bouwen,
Verlaet my nimmermeer;
Dat ick doch vroom mag blijven
U dienaer t'aller stond
Die tyranny verdrijven,
Die my mijn hert doorwondt.

Drella

Some unique material from Lou Reed and John Cale
Songs For Drella (rare 1990 VHS)
Runtime: 55:00 min.
IMDb link: http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0364012/
Movie links: by Catfritz
Director: Edward Lachman
Cast: Lou Reed, John Cale

Some critc wrote:
"Songs For Drella" may be one of the most emotional pieces of music I have ever encountered. Not only is this disc a tribute to Andy Warhol, but it may also be the finest work of both Lou Reed, and John Cale. These songs feel so personal, one feels as if one is invading the very souls of each of these brilliant songwriters. While telling Andy's story they reveal much of themselves. Reed & Cale take turns covering every conceivable aspect of Andy Warhol's world. From art, work, style, childhood, fear, and envy. No stone is left unturned. One of the most haunting moments on this disc is "The Dream" by John Cale. A true masterpiece of inner terrors, and human weakness. Lou Reed shines on "Work", "Nobody But Me", and most notably on "Hello It's Me". Here we can hear Lou's sadness, and longing for a friend lost. "Songs For Drella" is heart wrenching, enlightened, and unimpeachable as music can get. Wether you're a fan of Lou Reed, John Cale, The Velvet Underground, or Andy Warhol; you will find beauty and truth in the music found on this emotional powder keg.

The lyrics are here.
The album is in m4a format.

Lilly

Lily Allen is from London

She is bitchy but she makes nice music. I like her. Here is just a random 7-track mix that I got from my nephew. Something to keep you busy while waiting for her new 2009 album.

1. Everyone's At It
2. 22
3. Fag Hag
4. GWB (Fuck You Very Much)
5. He Wasn't There
6. I Could Say
7. Kabul Shit

The Kabul-Shit song reveals some liberal tendencies. I blogged her Alphie clip before - pretty much spells out my nephew ... LOL

Blond

Another poppy icon that gives me some great memories. Blondie was the name of the band, Debbie Harry was the lead singer.

Mex

Danny Trejo is the bad Mexican from the "Machete" trailer

I guess you know the fake trailer from Robert Rodrigues' "Machete" movie he made with Quentin Tarantino's Grindhouse.

And then I found this movie with almost the same guy, the same theme and the same tagline "they just fucked the wrong Mexican".

This is an entertaining movie about Mexican narco gangs. Some previews are here and here and a small sample is here.

Houten

Carice van Houten is from 1976

Carice van Houten is a Dutch movie actress. She is pretty good and world-famous here in the Netherlands. She just did the Valkyrie movie with Tom Cruise.

The Germans don't like their history and they don't like Tom Cruise for his Scientology membership. The movie though got moderate to good reviews in Germany.

The story is about the assassination attempt on Adolf Hitler by colonel Claus von Stauffenberg. The trailer from the tube is here.

When you know the background story, movies and music are much more appreciated. The 'Valkyrie' translates into German 'Walküre',
it's an opera from Richard Wagner. In the German legends, the Valkyrie are female horse-backed riders in white dress who hount you down untill your death.

The same theme and the same music was used by mr. Coppola in his 1979 Apocalyps Now movie.

Here is Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries in empeethree format.

Enjoy

Michelle

Barack and Michelle

What I picked up from the newspapers, that she is a kinda super-woman, classy, mother, lover, wife and all. Barack sure will need her on his side. I like her and her kids too.

Here's the Yes We Can song that crossed my mind [from the tube].

And here is the empeethree version [Yes We Can Can, The Pointer Sisters].

Enjoy

Bruce

Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band on tour in 2007

I must be repeating myself, but what the hack. Bruce did The Rising song at Barack's inauguration with the big choir. That's the stuff that dreams are made of.

Great, greater, greatest clip; Born in the USA from a France 1985 concert.

Carnival in Rio

This is a 3x700Mb. BBC documentary about Brazilian music with all the sexy carnival goodies. And (BBC-like) it is also pretty serious.

Ludwig

Ludwig van Beethoven, 1770-1827

Ludwig van Beethoven was a romantic giant (one of my heroes). His early musics were very much influenced by G.F.Händel. No gay rumors about Ludwig. He even fell in love with a woman, probably too late, when he was stone-deaf. That doesn't attract the gals but it inspires to some great music.

Enjoy

George

Georg Friedrich Händel, 1685-1759

Breaking news. Georg Friedrich Händel was gay. That is the latest from my newspaper. He was a joyfull German guy from Saxonia making music for the English court (vat ter teffel = what the devil).

His water/fireworks music and his Giulio Cesare (Julius Cesar) opera are well known. He made about 40+ operas and a lot of other well-known great baroque music. It seems he is becommimg a hype again - stay tuned.

- The Largo from his Xerxes opera.
- The splattering 'La Rejouissance' from his Water musics.

Enjoy

Trein

Treintje Oosterhuis in concert

She just hit my radar last week. Treintje is a Dutch celeb singer and the daughter of some famous minister. Ever heard of a famous Dutch minister? Now you can listen to his daughter = good.
- Sexy clip with Lionel Richie.
- One of her best albums

Enjoy

Candy

Candy Dulfer is from 1969 and plays the alto sax

I must be repeating myself but this is just a nice to know. The Dulfers are pretty famous jazz musicians in Holland. Candy is the daughter, Hans is her father and Inge is her mother. Candy made some funky stuff with Prince.
- Hans and Candy together, and that is pretty rare because they don't use to perform together
- Candy & Treintje Oosterhuis, both Dutch Celebs = lovely clip

Enjoy

Lynne

Lynne Koplitz is from 1969

What the hack. When they kick you in the balls, she deserves a blog. She smells fine. Her father is a chef and her mother trains circus chimps for Barnum & Bailey. Just imagine - don't.

Enjoy

Ballet

just a nice picture that has nothing to do with the clip

Maurice Bejart is a famous ballet director from France and Ravel's Bolero is very a sexy song. And then there was this clip from the tube. And that made me do this blog.

Enjoy

Opera

classical opera setting - looks sexy to me

Not sure why I had to blog this one. Just a nice picture and a cool song. It's about opera music and that can be very sexy. Danielle Deniese did some great Händel stuff. This little blog is about all the opera babes around there, that are doing such a hard job to please us. OK, here is a 1957 song from Maria Callas (Sonnambula, 11MB.).

Dance

'Tribal' is a special stile of belly dancing

Who said muslims aren't sexy? I must have blogged this theme a few times before because it's sensual, sexy, arousing, inviting, hot and the lot and it gives you some fresh thouhgts about islam and muslims. There is even a world championship in belly dancing.

Enjoy

Dubai

Shakira is from 1977

I must have blogged her about seven times before, because she's hot and she is into several cultures [I like that]. Shakira performed several times in Dubai before. Her next show there will be in Arabic language. Another blog of this crazy gal. I mean - she makes the boys crazy. She is from Columbia with a Lebanese father and she has a master degree in belly dancing.

She did NY 2008-2009 concert in Dubai; a fan made this great clip.

Her next album is expected around april 2009. This is one of her hottest clips from the tube. And in MTV unplugged she is making no secret of her roots. Thank you Nephew for the album. And here is a Ojos Asi clip.

Enjoy

Benny

Benny Hill 1924 - 1992

I'm sure I have blogged him before, because he is a semi-god in comedy. I was probably driving everbody crazy with my Benny Hill kink. But you should not talk cheep about Benny. He was very professional and very funny (most of the time). Now that he died, he slowly gets the credits that he deserves.

Take a look at this show - it's a nearly perfect production.

A song from Benny Hill , making a fool of Bob Dylan. He is near-genious here.

Enjoy

Baile

the kids are enjoying themselves

I just red in my newspaper that some hi-ranking Brazilian official wants to 'protect' Baile Funk music as a cultural heritage. It's a kind of no-no gangster-rap from the slums (favela) of Brazil with lyrics full of ho's, bro's, violence, drugs and sex (anything new?).

This dance style from Rio has commercialized to other parts of the world but I think this song sounds pretty authentic.

Tina Turner 'Proud Mary', 1988, Rio, live concert, in red latex, sweating body = so hot.

If you can provide me with a more sexier performance, I would like to hear from you (about 75MB./7:30min.)

No more words - just gaze and enjoy.

David

Van Halen in concert

This is a silly and private email conversation with my nephew. Maybe some of you out there can appreciate the humor of it. And by the way it ends in a rare and great song.

N. Ice is not for skating; its for in your drinks
U. "I tried jogging, but the ice-cubes kept falling out"
N. David Lee Roth
U. Van Halen?
N. EX Van Halen (rare song, David's voice only, runnin with the devil)

For the fans, the original Van Halen track is under the link.

Enjoy

Boots

Little Boots [1984] is from Blackpool, UK

The pop music business has changed in 2008, but we already knew that. People don't buy $10 albums anymore, we just download it from the web. We rather buy $200 tickets for a live concert. Madonna was tops with her $200 million tour in 2008. The RIAA is fighting a lost battle, the artists and tour-operators are now in charge.

And on the other hand new talent is popping up on the web, without even having made one album. When we must believe the UK critics, Little Boots is ready for a break-through in 2009.

- A clip from her bedroom
- A live performance from the tube
- Looks like one of her most watched vids on the tube = great
- Her 2008 Stuck on Repeat single
