I was about to protest this, but on reflection I guess as "hip" goes, and with the comparison being to Martin Denny, I'll refrain. Oh, those Mills Brothers though. "Pops" from the fireplace logs intermixing with the occasional scratch on the record (you often couldn't tell them apart) as Donald sings, smooth as silk, "two drifters, off to see the world, there's such a lot of world to see..." over Dad's cabinet stereo (which vibrates on every bass note). What great material to expose a youngster to. OK, sorry about the digression from the topic at hand. That is a great album though. Mills Brothers; Hawaiian songs; tiki on the album cover ... one's cup runneth over.
