Bandleader Edmundo Ros was the living embodiment of Latin music in World War II-era Britain. The toast of London's high society, he efficaciously introduced the rhumba and samba to the U.K. shores. Born December 7, 1910, in Port-of-Spain, Trinidad, to a Scottish father and an African-Venezuelan mother, Ros spent a lot of his childhood in military school day, playacting pleximetry in the military band. The have was otherwise suffering, all the same, and at 17 he ran away to Caracas, where he served as timpanist in the Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela. A decennary later Ros migrated to London, where he briefly studied graeco-Roman medicine before pursuing popular music full-time, financial backing Fats Waller and singing with Don Marino Barreto's Cuban stria prior to forming his have five-piece rhumba kit in 1940. After grading a stumble with 1941's Parlophone retail store "Los Hijos de Buda," Ros became a whiz, attracting the cream off of London society to his appearances at the too-generous Coconut Grove. When the defendant in a high profile disassociate case implicated Ros as a catalyst for his marriage's dying, the bandleader made national headlines, and the sexuality soil only made him more than popular, and he even taught then-Princess Elizabeth and her sister Princess Margaret to dance. After a retentive residence at the West End clubhouse the Bagatelle, Ros in 1951 acquired the late Coconut Grove land site on Regent Street and renamed the venue Edmundo Ros' Dinner and Supper Club. He as well made regular appearances on BBC radio, and his albums for the London label's Phase 4 imprint (including the blank honest-to-god age pop classics Rhythms of the South and Arriba!) sold briskly. His biggest score, "The Wedding Samba," even crossed all over to the U.S. Top Five, marketing 3 million copies in the treat. After Parliament legalized play in 1965, attendance at Ros' clubhouse cursorily nosedived, and he sold the business enterprise as presently as possible. He retired to Alicante, Spain, a decade later, returning to London's Queen Elizabeth Hall on January 8, 1994, for one last farewell execution leading the BBC Big Band with Strings. Ros was as well awarded the Order of the British Empire in the 2000 New Year's Honours List.

Lights Out Asia Ready To Unleash New Record

Wisconsin Post-Rockers, Lights Out Asia, are readying the follow-up to the critically acclaimed "Tanks and Recognizers" (review link). Their third release, "Eyes Like Brontide", will see the trio explore a darker and heavier vibe, with songs expected to be longer and far more dynamic.


This record, due in late Summer or early Autumn, is expected to further cement (their label) n5MD's, reputation as exponents of truly emotive, experimental sounds, as the Californian imprint bids to branch out further from their Electronic roots with this much anticipated release.

Spears evaluated following dispute

Britney Spears has been taken to hospital for a clinical evaluation following a dispute at her home over the custody of her children.
Los Angeles Police Department spokesman Officer Jason Lee said police arrived at Spears' hilltop home in Studio City at 8pm PST last night (0400 GMT Friday).
He said police had tried "to resolve the dispute peacefully and legally", according to the court order governing Spears' two sons with Kevin Federline.
People magazine's website reports that after nearly three hours, police determined that the court order stated that the children were supposed to be with Federline and a transfer was arranged.
Lee later said: "While officers were on the scene, they observed Ms Spears under the influence of an unknown substance. She is now being taken in for an evaluation, more than likely to a hospital. There were no reported injuries to anyone involved including the children."
Twenty-six-year-old Spears lost primary custody of her two sons in October.
