LOVE SERENADE (Shirley Barrett, 1996)

I can't beleeeeeeeeeeiiiiiiiiiiiive how good this movie is. It's like the kind of quirky aussie comedy that always seems to get made and is totally lame except this time it's PERFECT. It really is like a perfect film of it's particular type.

It's basically about this sleazy 'big time' radio DJ from Queensland named Ken Sherry who's taken over the job as DJ for a small country town radio station, and the two sisters who live next door becoming obsessed with him.

The script is great, everybody in it is excellent, and the way everybody in the movie keeps on saying the name "ken sherry" is just hilarious. And Ken Sherry plays nothing but Barry White and shit like that, and the juxtaposition of the music with the small town is just delicious. You gotta see it!

WILD WILLIE WISE AND THE CONGREGATION - BURN, BURN, BURN (Baja 5402)

Very strange record! I flipped out when I heard this thing over at Mohair's house one day and eventually managed to extract it from him in a trade.

It's a sort of devil-worship frantic rave up type thing, with odd semi improvised sounding vocals by wild willie about playing with the devil and burning, and lots of extremely loud shaky percussion that sounds like it's being played by someone's children.

It's all rather odd and breathtaking.

This thing was written and produced by Jan Cox, an eccentric new age philosopher who was also known to play a mean blues piano and was involved in the music scene in Atlanta through the 50's and 60's. I suspect that him twonking away on the organ on side b...
