Hey List,

I was in New York a few weeks ago and went to the "Windows to the World" atop
the World Trade Center. It was on a Wednesday night. The crowd were mostly
European. There was a DJ spinning lounge or cocktail. I don't know the
proper term for it. Anyways, most of the music sounded like something from
the 60s television era. Don't get me wrong, I'm not dissing lounge. I wanted
to know where this style originated. Also I wanted to know if this is popular
in Europe. A few years back I heared a group called Pizzacato Five (Japanese
I think). I kind of liked them. I heared they have some new stuff coming out
in April. If anyone know of any lounge artists or compilations please pass
this on to me.
