I was very pleasantly surprised to find 'Crying In A Storm' listed as one of Pitchfork's "Found Sounds of 2006"!! They call it "the type of find that makes following the 60s beat explosion to every corner of the world worthwhile". I couldn't agree more. The song might have been hidden on an EP when first released, but I'm glad it's finally getting the hit, cult status it deserves.
Rita Chao - Let True Love Begin
Another fab Rita Chao number, backed by The Quests.

The "Crying in a storm" song isn't available for download anymore. Could you upload it again? Thanks!
hi anon, the song is available in the "Recollecting Singapore 60s" cd as reviewed in the earlier post. =) i try not to post too many tracks from cds which are commercially available because we need to support the people who get these rare music re-released onto cds! i hope you understand. =) if you are not from singapore and would like to purchase a copy of the cd, do email me and i'll help.
I'm amazed Pitchfork dug Rita Chao. I guess they're cooler than I thought.
I think I found my new favorite blog! Man next time I'm in Singapore, I have to look up some of the stuff you posted!
hi anna! yeah i was shocked to see Rita Chao on Pitchfork. well, let me know if you are ever in Singapore, I can recommend cool spots to check out for vinyl. =)
Hi! I am thinking of coming to Singapore to visit friends (I'm living in Japan now). I also like Rita Chao (esp. "Pretty Flamingo" and "Love is Me, Love is You" - haunting) and Nancy Sit ("Shakin' All Over"). Do you think these songs are avail on CD somewhere there (I don't have a turntable, only a computer)?
