Yippie-ay-ão
I cannot possibly overstate the awesomeness of this collection of Brazilian cowboy music (in Portuguese) by Bob Nelson & Seus Rancheiros, resplendent with yodeling, whip cracks, coconut shell clip-clops, lowing cattle, and hmmmm, what's that, perhaps the throaty warble of the capybara? Not so sure, but what IS certain is my undying rapture with its veritable existence.
RCA Selectavision Makes Me Shiver With Pleasure
I'm not sure how I managed to suffer a childhood in the 80's without knowing about the RCA Selectavision--but I have to say, the idea of watching a movie on a vinyl LP record makes me weak in the knees! (Almost as weak-kneed as if a young, hunky Sean Connery were to whisper "non, appelez-moi James" in my ear.)

Alone in a car
With the help of late 60's - early 70's french madness, wonderfull OST, german library music and a lot more soul and pop delights.
Kiss caress and more until next time
A World of Weirdness
Here's a Norwegian blog I plan on spending a lot of time at....in less than a half hour I've already added a children's choir version of "These Boots are Made for Walking", Music to Watch Space Girls By, a tune by Anna-Lisa Ingemanson, the Swedish Mrs. Miller, and enough yodel and twist songs to make my iPod sparkle for ages and ages.
Another great source for odd music is my Facebook group Oddball Music Blogs -- many of the participants own their own strange music blog, and share links to what THEY listen to and download. That should keep you busy for a while!

La Vida Schibbinz
And now class, all together, what is the purpose of starting a garage band?
All: To pick up girls!
Correct. And if you want to attract cool babes and not geeky girls with orthopedic shoes and scabby elbows, what is the first important thing you need to do?
All: Choose a cool band name!
Granted, the members of Schibbinz were between the ages of 15 and 17 when "Livin' Free" was recorded--American kids who inexplicably recorded this in Argentina. Along with a local guitarist who went on to direct the Symphonic Orchestra of Cordoba. Or at least that's what comes up when I hit the "translate" button on this Garage Latino blog entry, for all I know it may actually say they were snacking on lead paint chips in the recording studio, which might account for band name, as well as why they did a cover version of the song only grandpas like, "Ghost Riders in the Sky".
Every Body Stone Together
Why should Engrish be monopolized by Asian countries? Perhaps the titles of these songs by Los Papos came from a rudimentary version of Google translator. Or more likely from every body stoning together.
