| | Repo Man Soundtrack CD
As a backdrop to his fast-paced and cartoon-like debut chronicling the wayward life of Los Angles repo men, punk auteur Alex Cox did well to use music from the city's early-'80s hardcore punk scene; the tongue-in-cheek histrionics of Fear and the Circle Jerks (who appear in the movie as a punk band-turned-lounge act) fit flush with the film's mix of displaced suburban youth, gruff, and wizened repo veterans, Mexican hoods, industrial-skid row scenery, and irradiated UFO conspiracy theorists. Along with tracks by punk godfathers Iggy Pop ("Repo Man") and Jonathan Richman (writer of "Pablo Picasso"), the album's additional L.A. hardcore highlights include Black Flag's "TV Party," Suicidal Tendencies's "Institutionalized," and the Plugz's "Hombre Secreto (Secret Agent Man)." The Plugz's noir-ish, punk en espanol tracks, in fact, formed the trademark sound of the film. One of the first soundtracks to use pre-existing band cuts in lieu of an original score, Repo Man is a fine, if not terribly thorough document of L.A.'s punk heyday. ~ Stephen Cook

Alicia Bonnet and the New Moon Singers offer a New Moon Journey CD for women who love to sing and gather for sisterhood. This CD contains 13 New Moon Sister Circle songs that were recorded with the vocal range of most women in mind and are easy to learn and share.

Pick some chants you or your group likes. Then learn them by singing along with the CD at your gathering. Skip over the ones you don’t want to use. The chants are arranged in a sequence which follows the flow of a ceremonial gathering.The birthing of this CD is the completion of a dream.
