I'm gonna try real hard not to insult Buffet or those who like him (and feel that he is tiki). My thought is that his music evokes more of a spanish/ party at the river/ margarita feel where as the others you mentioned have more of an exotic alure to them. I would definately place Chris Issak in the catagory along side Denny and Baxter. They just go about it differently.

I also would have no problem playing surf music in my tiki bar but I agree that it probably isn't 'tiki' music per say. Again, it's what you personally like.
