"TROPICALI" Pretty World Brazilian Psychedelic Trip
Tropicalia and Beyond (revisited)
"My long-suffering people said farewell to their pain to see a band go by - playing love songs" - Chico Buarque (from his song 'A Banda')
The 'Tropicalia' music of the late '60s and early '70s, in many ways, followed the trends of the UK and US: protest songs, psychedelic experimentation, a hippy return to strumming and shouting, heavy rock-glam and so on. Yet, distinct elements of traditional Brazilian culture were embedded (both sincerely and ironically) within the Tropicalia movement creating a unique musical world cohabited by the old and new - and also its fair share of controversy.

Thrifting for Tunes: Quiet Village vs. Jungle Drums
To make up for the recent lack of all-exotica shows on TFT (as I focused on other stuff like movie soundtracks and the like), I've just put together the first in a series of shows called "Quiet Village vs. ?" pitting about 10 different versions of the ultimate exotica classic against 10 versions of another popular exotica tune.
On March 14, Quiet Village goes head-to-head with Jungle Drums. Not a competition... just a chance for you to compare and choose the versions you like best.
Join us in the LuxuriaMusic chat room and share your thoughts... March 14 at 6 pm PST/9pm EST

Mini-Skirts and Lederhosen! The Return of OKTOBERFEST IN MARCH
On The Beyondophonic Action Hour, Sunday March 7 and 14, it's Tothar's annual response to "Christmas in July." Tune in for an onslaught of boffo and baffling German-language pop, mostly from the 1960s.
First up, an all-new installment on March 7. Among other Deutschland delights, this show will explore Germany's bizarre, widespread musical fixation with American Wild West cowboys. Then, on March 14, an encore presentation of Oktoberfest in March 2009. Along with gobs of go-go goodness, it included a block of hot German mambos/cha-chas/sambas, plus some swingin' Deutsche Tom Jones covers that caused a minor uproar in the Lux Chatroom last March.
The Beyondophonic Action Hour with Tothar: Sundays 7pm Pacific, 10pm Eastern, here on LuxuriaMusic.
