Aloha Scottes...

Thanx for ordering the CD....it shippped today. Funny, but my taste in music runs much of the same...Classic rock....KISS, Black Sabbath, ZEP Beatles, Cheap Trick.

As for Exotica...Check out Gene Rains Group - Awesome Exotica, sometimes moody, sometimes upbeat. They had 4 records out...ALL out of print, but you can find them...Check out the xtabay blog http://www.blognow.com.au/XtabaysWorld/70710/

Also, if you can find Rex Kona and his Mandarins - "Wild Orchids" record. Great stuff.

Also - Alex Keack - Surfers Paradise

Pretty obscure, but great stuff.

Another fave of mine is the Blue Hawaiians "Sway" cd, which is more surf in it's instrumentation, but has some really great exotica moments, and if you like drums....you'll love it. Gary from that band played lap steel on my CD....awesome.

Hope that helps
