As you might know from reading the MP2000 posts Camille Sauvage is an alias of Eric Framond. The record is #22 and called Music Label and it’s pretty solid it’s not quite up there with Univers 2000 but it has enough good tracks and it has quite a bit of variety. Univers 2000 which he released under Eric Framond was #21 and a song this song, “Petroleossimo” sounds like one that didn’t make the cut. Although not all of Music Label sounds like Univers 2000 I’ll share more on another MP2000 Monday

I don’t know really anything about Robert Gretch but you gotta hand it to the guy Guitarrissimo is a pretty good name for a record. Unfortunately the title is better then the music. Most of the songs I wouldn’t sit around and listen to but I could see how some could be used for background music. My two favorites from this record is “Navajos” and “Via Alpha” so I’ll share “Navajos” for MP2000 Monday and throw up the other in the future.

This Wacky Wednesday song comes from Bruce Lee’s younger brother, Robert. The album came out in 1975 and is titled Robert Lee Sings The Ballad Of Bruce Lee. The song “The Ballad of Bruce Lee” is one of the few songs that Robert wrote on the album. Robert sings other songs written by Keith Barbour and Flemming Rasmussen and the album also features him covering The Beattles song “This Boy”.
This MP2000 Monday is another Nilovic song but this time it’s under his Andy Loore alias. The song is “Tremplin Olympique” from his Water Show album. The album is solid it has a few nice songs like this one but it has quite a few songs I skip as well.

Todays MP2000 Monday song is “Amelioration” from the Eric Framond album Puzzle. I’m a big fan of his Univers 2000 album but this album only has a couple songs I like.

Count Bass D and DJ Pocket recently put out a free album that features straight loops for beats and I thought it might as well throw it up for Free Album Friday. Now to be honest I’m pretty underwhelmed by this release I like Count (especially Begborrowsteel) but overall I think this album misses the mark. There are a few songs I like (like “Everyday Ritual” below) and its free so whatever. I don’t have a problem with loops I just don’t like the sample material they took the loops from it’s like 80s R&B sounding junk. But peace to Count Bass D he makes good music. You can download In the Loop here
This Friday Favorites is a cover song by Peaches. I don’t like Peaches I just happened to hear this and instantly loved it. It was originally an Iggy Pop and the Stooges song from their influential 1973 album Raw Power. “Search and Destroy” was written by Iggy Pop and James Williamson so they are to thank for the words. But I prefer the music of the Peaches cover its more synthy and sinister. I’m sure a lot of people prefer the original. The Peaches version is from the album War Child Presents Heroes where various artists did a song on and the proceeds went to charity to benefit war torn areas.
For this weeks Maybe You Missed It its a song from Animals Talking a little known group from London that consists of Oscar Scheller, Si Dhanak, John Sheil and Matt James. I’m not sure how I came across the few Animal Talking songs I have but I got them in 2008. I like “It Was” but know almost nothing about the group and I don’t think they have officially released any singles/albums. To hear some other songs you can visit their Myspace page.
Although Big Mama Thornton’s version of “Hound Dog” was a hit when she released it in 1952 it became a bigger one when it was covered by Elvis Presley in 1956. It was the B Side to his “Don’t Be Cruel” single. “Hound Dog” was written by the team of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller. I first heard the Big Mama version on the CD compilation Martin Scorsese Presents The Blues – A Musical Journey that went along with the series he did for PBS and it’s this weeks Maybe You Missed It.
For this Wacky Wednesday it’s another radio station record. This time its a 7″ (but 33rpm) public service announcement record from the National Fire Protection Association. On it they have various baseball players tell the listener to keep their matches out of reach of the children in your house. There are twelve different ball players I picked Cincinnati Reds and Hall of Fame catcher Johnny Bench but they are all essentially the same just read by different players. Will update this post with the artwork of the record sleeve later.
that went along with the series he did for PBS and it’s this weeks
