Other music he introduced me to: Bulgara plays Baklava
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KiUKQlAs2o
Few languages sound as adorable as Bulgarian to me.
Hmmm... Arachnoid is a bit like that one 2001 Artefact album I got... Funny that they're Dutch and on the CD you can hear English, French,
German, some other language I'm not familiar with, but no Dutch. And it's not like Dutch is too ugly to sing in: Boudewijn de Groot proved
that many times.

Been trying to find an online audio of a song by a Dutch punk band. Forgot the band name but the song is called "Three ways to get pudding out of
a cat".
Just listened to a song by Sukekiyo called Hidden One and found that at the 2:04 part, the guitar sounds suspiciously like the first movement of Mozart's 25th Symphony. Must be going nuts.

I know Bonamassa's version (I actually bought the CD for my dad) which is pretty cool, but it's true Tim
Curry's voice is interesting, I'd like to hear a combination of both, Joe playing guitar and Tim singing.

Dick Wagner plays guitar on the Curry one, that's not one to stick your nose up to either. Plus Curry has his friend Michael Kamen (later
successful scorewriter and who conducted Symphony & Metallica) on keyboards.
I dug up the Sukekiyo song and found that it's not just that section of solo that sounds like the ta ta ta ta tidelideduu... but that the guitar
part in other spots also play the ta ta taa taa taa ta ta taa taa taa... and now I don't believe it's a coincidence anymore. Am considering
checking out the rest of Sukekiyo but I don't really like them much.

It would be! Apparently all we know - outside of the vault - is what's on the label, which is probably, and partly wrong.
An educated guess puts the date, place as Dec 7-8 1968 at Shrine Exposition Hall, LA, CA which is not what's on the label. Here is a history and
makeup of the record and what's on it: http://www.zappateers.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=18544
It's notable that this was not a Bunk Gardner tape as those make up the bulk of the '68 tapes and source was not provenanced there.
For comparison, another track from this record, "Copenhagen Night Music" has been confirmed as from Copenhagen show 10 03 1968. Though
probably not one of the Bunk Gardner tapes, I asked Joe about this - if we could see it released -and he said that tape was in the vault and was used
as live portion in Uncle Meat's "Ian Underwood Whips It Out", but that it was 'not properly recorded'. Whatever that means.
There could be a tape of that Shrine Expo Hall show w/ Wipe Out on it in the vault. Or there may not be.
There is another example or two of The Mothers playing that song, but the Detroit recording at zappateers are hard to hear what's going on.
Distant, distortion, old, whatever.
Detroit: May 17, 69; and one that sounds better, & may have been a Bunk tape. Now you can get it on ebay or at zappateers for free.
Central Park, NY: Aug 3, 1968, here, abt 54 minutes into it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jj4nd0rmAuQ
For some crazy reason, I've been listening to Herb Alpert this summer. There were some of those records at home where I grew up. So it makes
sense that way. I can't get over how good some of it was, but have to question, isn't that just old synapses being strummed again so it
sounds good to me? They were very popular over here.
An example:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4ERKPzplaQ
Of course, I don't believe this is a live performance. They sound exactly like the record.
Their persona too is a gimmick like miming for the camera. they were totally fake, posers on a soundstage. Italian and Jewish kids that grew up in
Brooklyn&Queens acting like a mariachi band. For most of the '60's, too, not just a one off and they had very little actual experience
with Mexico. Except Tijuana, as tourists. And Tijuana then was not really a dangerous place. But the music, the execution of what it is, isn't
terrible. In fact they try lots of styles and had benefit of a lot of fame and units sold, etc. etc. which made it possible to do arrangements that
were Morricone or Phil Spector inspired, use sound techniques honed at Golden Sound Studios in LA, etc.
