 +John Duffy and the classic lineup of the Country Gentlemen, doing a tune I haven't been able to find out much about
 +
 +This [[http://www.rocky-52.net/chanteursc/country_g.htm|discgraphy]] says it may first have been the b-side of the Starday 1963 single of Copper Kettle, and then appeared also on Yesterday and Today, Vol. 3 (Rebel)

 +====== Back Up and Push Rubber Dolly ======
 +
 +
 +A fiddle tune can have more than one title, or two titles refer to two tunes that are very similar. Examples are: //Lost Indian// (how it's known on most recordings) and //Cherokee Shuffle// (how it seems to be known to fiddlers I meet); //College Hornpipe//, aka //Sailor's Hornpipe// (the "Popeye theme")
 +
 +From four great mandolinists, these are four versions of the same tune, with two titles -- //Back Up and Push//, and //Rubber Dolly// (the Jethro Burns is //Back (It) Up and Push//)
 +
 +Not much about Paul Buskirk appears to be on the Internet, but Deke Dickerson recently put up a youtube of Buskirk in a movie, and he's put up some other great pickin' http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=KoolKlipsFromDeke#p/u/21/8fWQBA-i0Tc

 +====== Belly Dance with Omar Khorshid and His Magic Guitar ======
 +

 +

 +{{:omarkhorshid.jpg|Belly Dance with Omar Korshid and His Magic Guitar}}
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +This is a great album. I bought it new in the early 80s, sight unheard, from a Middle Eastern record store. The album is from 1974, manufactured and distributed by EMI Greece. When I got the record I was familiar, obviously, with "Never on Sunday," but the others I didn't know. This was the first time I heard "Apache," and since then I've found other versions of "La Cumparsita" a famous tango from Uruguay by way of Argentina.
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +A Google search now yields that "Johnny Guitar" is an instrumental version of the probably vocal theme song to the 1954 movie. (When I searched on this a couple years ago I came up dry.) The P. Lee in the songwriting credit is indeed Peggy Lee.
 +
 +
 +"Kiss of Fire" is the English, lyrics-added title of the tango "El Choclo" (restripped of lyrics here; ahh, it's all so confusing).
 +
 +
 +So my quest (Johnny Quest) continues, now for La Playa on side two and tracks 1, 2, 4 on side one. Any info on the sources of those tracks would be much appreciated.
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +I'm posting the whole album, with none of the tracks trimmed. There are many wonderful moments. Solenzara starts with a low-pitched solo intro, then into the main body of the song, played with a cutting, knife edge style guitar.
 +
 +
 +
 +Casatschok has these cool breakdown sections and then gets exciting coming out of the guitar solo toward the end. La Playa has an extended percussion intro. (Though it's a guitar album, the percussion is really where it's at.)
