Since he's going to do The Crazed Mugs song "Island People," (he just doesn't know it yet), I have nothing bad to say about JB.

I don't know about this one. If true, then neither do carvers nor any other artisans. I know Waitiki certainly bridges a gap. And so does Tiki Diablo.

Maybe by definition classic must mean "old"?

Hanford delineates between classic and modern but the "tiki culture" supports both.
JB is in neither, imo. But a few of the songs we do aren't really either.

And does the exotica culture translate freely into tiki? Ala Esquivel?

Ponderous dude... maybe some of Buzzy's time warping peyote sunset philosophy can answer this one.
