Hi Pals, -- Dana here...

As many of you know, for seven years, I was the editor and pubisher of COOL AND STRANGE MUSIC! MAGAZINE.
It was a great experience, but I needed to devote time to my other interests, so on of Feb. 28th, 2003, I sold the magazine to Myke O'Clock.
Questions about what happened to the magazine?
Read my note here.

Many issues are OUT OF PRINT, but you can still buy select back issue of the magazine
(Issues #15-27 only) by ordering directly from my C&SM Back Issue Order Page

UPDATE on my MOOG CD: "MOOG-Tastic! Happy Electronic Music from the 24th Century." has been pushed back on the schedule, but it will definitely come out sometime in the near future. Nine tracks have been completed for MOOG-Tasic!, and will sit on the shelf for the time being. My energy recemty has gone SOLEY into the next Jean Jacques Perrey/Dana Countryman CD Project , due out in September, 2008. Artist-extraordinaire Joe Lacey has once again signed on, to create a cover for our next CD. You probably already know that he creatied some great cover art for our HEMM CD.
Here is a close-up of a section of the front cover, to show the amazing detail this fantastic artist does in his work! Be sure to check out Joe's web site.

Getting back to "MOOG-Tastic! Happy Electronic Music from the 24th Century.": Ace guitarist Skip Heller flew in from L.A., to lay down some groovy bossa nova guitar work on the album. Drummer Rick Bowen is also on the project, as well as virtuoso theremin player Fay Lovsky, (all the way from Holland!) Former Mott The Hoople keyboardist Morgan Fisher  contributed a solo, from his studio in Tokyo, Japan. Also contributing their musical talents will be Laurent Lombard, Frank M. Young, Brother Cleve, and many more! Legendary guitar session man Vinnie Bell (and one of my favorite pals) has already played on a track, and even artist Joe Lacey got into the act, playing percussion on one tune!

Click here for a little more information about the MOOG-Tastic! CD, and a sneak listen to two of the finished tracks!

Meanwhile, THE HAPPY ELECTROPOP MUSIC MACHINE was released on Sept. 25th, 2006, and is available for sale through this website, Jean-Jacque's site, and also through Amazon.com).

It looks like Jean-Jacques and I will be doing concerts in Norway and Berlin in the first week of September, 2007. More info, as it develops....


JJ's Bio

I am still gathering interview sfor a book on the life of Jean-Jacques. At this time, I can't say when this project will be completed.
If you have contact info for other people that Jean Jacques has worked with, please e-mail me at dana@danacountryman.com.
