As the first entry in it's catalog, French label Akuphone presents a reissue of Lily Chao's Chinese Folk Songs, originally released by Four Seas Records in 1968. This edition includes four previously unheard titles and exclusive liner notes containing Lily Chao's biography and lyric translations. Chao Xiao-Jun aka Lily Chao was born in Taiwan in 1948, while mainland China was rapidly undergoing major changes immediately following the end of the Chinese Civil War. After experiencing hard times in her girlhood, she ventured out into singing quite unwillingly. Indeed, at age 19, Lily Chao was compelled to give up her studies to support her family and start a career as a singer, after passing an audition at the Taipei Cabaret in Taiwan. The cabaret industry was in full swing at the time, offering destinations for popular entertainment, and Lily Chao's efforts to launch her singing career immediately attracted producers' attention. Her appearances at the Taipei Cabaret as part of it's shows, which combined music in Mandarin, poetry, drama, magic, and other fine arts, soon earned her a reputation. Despite the immediate success that her numerous stage performances and appearances on the national television channel won her, Lily Chao led a chaotic and painful private life. As she smiled very little and tended to appear distant, the audience dubbed her the Ice Queen, a nickname that she would keep for the rest of her career. This barely-concealed melancholy can be felt throughout Chinese Folk Songs, as well as in her very particular way of singing, which is both jerky and perfectly fluid. The album stands halfway between Mandarin folk songs and rock singing inspired by The Shadows, all surf guitar and garage sounds recorded with pinpoint precision and enhanced by saxophone and organ touches, while Lily Chao's intoxicating vibratos bring a pinch of soul to the music. An outstanding achievement of timeless pop music from the 1960s.

SO durable & my Blue Heeler LOVES it!
Color: Purple, Color: Purple
My Blue Heeler tears up almost all of her toys if they’re not rubber. This ball is SO durable and she loves it so much!! We’ve had it for 5 months now. She chews on it every day for long periods of time and it’s showing pretty much no wear and tear. I keep wondering if I’ll ever have to pull out the second one from the box lol. It can be hard to squeak with one hand, but it’s easy enough with 2 hands or if you step on it with your foot. It’s hilarious that every time I squeak it she licks her lips. My girl never actually squeaks it while she’s chewing on it, which is actually a plus cuz it doesn’t get annoying when she’s chewing on it for long periods of time. I also love that the ball helps clean her teeth because of the spikes and the size is larger so it’s easy to take it from her while playing fetch. Overall a fun, durable dog toy!

Totally indestructible!
Color: Purple, Color: Purple
Finally! A toy my aggressive chewer cannot destroy!! Can’t even get the squeaker out! No other toy has ever held up and it’s got some nice bounce to it. Perfect size so it can’t get stuck under the sofa. Furthermore, it aids in cleaning his teeth and he loves them. This is a great money saver too!
Update - 3 months later - still pup’s fav…still whole - still lotsa bounce - still has squeaker intact. As good as new! I’d buy these again but don’t need to 😃!

Toughest ball of this type.
Color: Blue
My dogs are brutal with these toys. I really like them as the spikes act as a tooth brush, and the dogs love knawing on them. There are other spiked balls like this on amazon, but this one is of better quality. It lasts a lot longer. The squeaker does not last long, the dogs teeth push it into the ball, you can hear it rattling around in there.
