I think I read a long time ago that Esquivel did the audio for that universal tv logo you'd see at the end of tv programs.

Hi BC! Thanks for jogging my senile memory. I've been trying to remember where I saw Combustible Edison, and it just came to me - Fuzzyland! a long gone club in Los Angeles that use to be a bowling ally. Now if I could just remember the year.

I've heard Quiet Village so much that I'll only play it if the magazine makes reference to it directly. ha
  12:12pm
Martinibomb:

It's hard to ever get tired of. IF you didn't play it, that would be like a reggae DJ refusing to play Bob Marley. Hahah

Tuned in, just rolled on to the computer. Hi BC and all! Hope you had a grand show Jan!

This section focuses a lot on Les Baxter especially since he had just passed away at the time.

So, being wrapped in plastic gives you peace of mind?

The lady I used to buy my copies of cool & strange from is now one our city commissioner's :-D aahhh portland

BC Sterrett:

I had to order mine through the mail, since no one carried it here
Avatar 12:32pm
BC Sterrett:

Oops, botched the end of that one
Avatar 12:33pm
Ursula1000:

were Cool and Strange and RE Search related in any way?
Avatar 12:35pm
BC Sterrett:

Yes, Dana Countryman started CSM because he had wished that RE/Search had started their own magazine. So he took it in his own hands.
Avatar 12:35pm
Ursula1000:

ah cool
  12:36pm
Martinibomb:

I didn't know that!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:36pm
Rich in Washington:

Wow. I didn't know there was any kind of connection between CSM and RE/Search.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:37pm
Rich in Washington:

That first ten issues on PDF thing that Dana's offering is really worth it. It turns out it's the exact spread of issues I was missing!
Avatar 12:40pm
BC Sterrett:

The PDF of all other issues are coming out soon!
Avatar 12:41pm
BC Sterrett:

I have Dana's remaining issues of the physical issues.
Should anyone want some, send them my way :)
Avatar 12:42pm
BC Sterrett:

oops, the remaining archive I mean
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:43pm
Rich in Washington:

yeah. That, RE/Search, Michael Weldon's Psychotronic Video, - and a little before that, Forced Exposure - that was my primary outlet in those pre-internet days.
Avatar 12:44pm
Ursula1000:

oh totally. RE/Search was a HUGE gateway.
  12:44pm
Martinibomb:

Same here Rich! I was still down in Roseburg getting psychotronic video/forced exposure etc. in highschool Lol

Martinibomb:

used to have to mail order comics until I was 14 and someone opened a comics shop finally!

Rich in Washington:

The Tower Records in Beaverton Mall was my oasis from living in a backwards-ass hillbilly town. I'd stock up on magazines, zines and as many import records as I could afford.
Avatar 12:47pm
BC Sterrett:

RE/Search changed my life as well
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:50pm
Rich in Washington:

I still have all of mine. But I still wasn't prepared for what a life changing thing that the Incredibly Strange Music books were. I really kicked my cratedigging thing into overdrive. I sort of felt stupid obsessively looking for and buying all these weird records before that.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:56pm
Franco Twinkie:

Since I lived in L.A. the thrift stores were full of this stuff as well as dishes from outer space and sport shirts that looked like wallpaper, all for next to nothing.

When the 1st ISM book came out I felt a kinship with a mass of people, where my tastes for school band to baxter to say, whistling records was meeting someone on a blue moon at a gathering.

BC Sterrett:

I didn't really start collecting vinyl seriously until I discovered Friendly Persuasion on the internet (Pre-Cool and Strange) and then the RE/Search books.
Avatar 12:59pm
BC Sterrett:

Stay tuned for Sounds Spectacular up next!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:59pm
Otis Fodder:

Before '94 with the first ISM book, in the early 90s, I did get my fill meeting people via Factsheet 5. More print, but there were some great connections with like-minded musical madcaps. Did not properly listen to FMU until 1999 when I could access the web stream (while in Seattle at the time). Previous to that ordered a number of things from The Catalog of Curiosities.
