A reverie:

I remember when Lushy played this song on Friday night on the Tahitian Lanai at Caliente. The sun had just set and twilight hues cast a soothing light on our desert tropic isle. Lushy plays smooth, jazzy lounge music and we were all relaxing and shmoozing there on the grass, with the band playing furnishing an elegant aural backdrop.

Then the strains of Bali Hai flowed out of a flute. The poly-pop proclivity implanted in these tiki people gathered on the lawn was suddenly activated; drawn out of their conversations and preoccupations they stopped to listen and then cheer. Atomic Cocktail leapt up and cavorted on the green in a perfect expression of glee. A happy moment.
