I am about to invest in one of BasicHip's custom 8-disc samplers, and as I am still green as grass, I'd like some suggestions as to what I should choose, with an eye towards "essential." My choices:

Jimmy Namaro - Driftwood
Paul Mark - Golden Memories From Japan
Anita Darian - East of the Sun
Miriam Burton - African Lament
Chick Floyd - Hula La
Don Tiare - The Music of Les Baxter
Mike Simpson - Jungle Odyssey
Ted Auletta - Exotica
Ethel Azama - Exotic Dreams
Paul Mark - East to West
Sondi Sodsai - Sondi
Augie Colon - Chant of the Jungle
Richard Hayman - Voodoo!
Phil Moore - Polynesian Paradise
Marty Wilson - Jun'gala
The Out-Islanders - Polynesian Fantasy
Martin Denny/Si Zentner - Exotica Suite
Axel Stordahl - Jasmine and Jade
Gene Rains - Lotus Land
Elisabeth Waldo - Maracatu
Tak Shindo - Mganga!
Stanley Wilson - Pagan Love
Johnny Richards - The Rites of Diablo

Also these from Les Baxter:

Ports of Pleasure
African Jazz
Jewels of the Sea
The Passions
Teen Drums
Sacred Idol
The Primitive and the Passionate
Alakazam the Great

So... if you were me...?
