Jeff, thank you for all your supportive posts, your vinyl archeology has enriched this forum immeasurably. I wonder how many T.C.ers trace their Exotica exposure back to Throbbing Gristle. I never understood why, when they loved Martin Denny so much, they never made any music as beautiful as his! :)
And I wonder how many members of the original Exotica Mailing List are here on TC now.

I was on the Exotica Mailing list (and still am) from pretty far back. As far as TG making music inspired by Martin Denny, have you heard Chris and Cosey's (of TG) "Exotika?" The title track is a great "contemporary" (it was the 80s I believe) version of...well...Exotika. Their "Musik Fantastique" was somehwt along the same lines.
