               My Favorite Records

If you want to learn to play guitar, listen to Wes Montgomery. You
also should go out and see if you can get a record by Cecil Taylor if
you want to learn how to play piano.

You ought to look into the complete works of Anton Webern on Columbia
(K4L-232), conducted by Robert Craft. That's four records. Robert
Craft is not always an excellent conductor, and his performances are
not always absolutely accurate, but they probaly didn't give him a
very good budget because it was modern music, and they wanted to get 
the job over with, and he was  pobably under pressure, so don't mind
the mistakes that are on there if you're following it with a score.

Also, Piere Boulez conducts his own composition. Le Marteu Sans Maitre.
I don't know what label that's on, but it's the one with Boulez 
conducting. The one by Robert Craft has too many mistakes.

Also you ought to get Bartok's first, second and third piano concertos,
which are very groovy and good to dance to. I have the version on 
Westminister (18277) by Edith Farnadi with the Vienna State Opera
Orchestra. I never heard any other version of the second and third
concertos so I don't know whether or not that's the best recording.
It might not even be available. I heard another version of the first at
Andy Kulberg's, of the Blues Project, who has an extensive collection
of modern music.

Also, buy everything you can by Igor Stravinsky and dance to it -
espacially L'Histoire Du Soldat, which means Soldier's Tale, and
the Agon Ballet, which id beautiful thing.

There's a record by Karlheinz Stockhausen on the Deutsche Gramaphone
label called 'Gesang der Jungling'. It'a the Song Of The Youths,
Kontackte contract is on the over side. Buy that (DGG 138811).

I hope you spell all the names right because if any of these
composers read Hit Parade, and see a mistake, they're going to be
real mad at you.
