Hi everyone! My very first post here! I've visited this site a few times
the last two or three years. I always wanted to join but never got around to it.

I'm kind of an Exotica/Tiki music fan. I've always been a fan of Gilligan’s Island.
I know, dumb show but I love it. About three or four years ago I got XM Radio.
There was talk back then of a channel they use to have but got rid of called
On The Rocks. They played lounge music. They moved to the channel to their XM Online
site. I started listening and found the music very very fun and good. They played
a Les Baxter exotica song and that set me off to search for more of this crazy,
wild, fun, and beautiful music. That search led me to Martin Denny. I bought
a 2 CD set of the best of Martin Denny. I love this set.

Well, I got an iPod Touch over Christmas and am now doing this iToons thing.
I saw on Tiki Central a review of the Tiki album Voodoo. Sure enough, iToons had
the whole cd and I bought and downloaded it. I'm currently listening to it
for the first time now. I like what I hear!
