New Don Tiki Album - South of the Boudoir - Tiki Music

I heard nothing about it coming out. I've listened once - kind of different from The Forbidden Sounds and Skinny Dip; much more Oriental Exotic (mostly Thai/Bali) and Middle Eastern than tropical. Not quite as many driving instrumentals as I've come to expect from Don Tiki, but I need to let it sink in. I was really disappointed with Skinny Dip when I first listened - now it's my favorite. Best of luck to the band with this CD. Hoping for more live performances - it's been a long time since I've seen Don Tiki. [ Edited by: Koolau 2009-09-25 23:32 ]
