Actually Lucas, I think we are a lot closer in musical taste that it first
seemed, and since we have pretty much derailed this thread, I will briefly
continue.
While I listen to many different kinds of music, I keep things pretty well
defined in my tiki environment. 90 per cent classic exotica, cuz it helps preserve
the mood. The only exceptions that I will listen to in the "lounge" are
Coltrane's "Love Supreme", Miles' "Birth of the Cool", various
Babatunda Olatunji cds, and, oh yea, a little Mickey Hart, the Blasters (must
be an old hippie thing), and the first two Paul Butterfield Blues Band
albums. I am not supposing that Butterfield is tiki....I just like how it
makes me feel.
At the root of it all...I pretty much feel like a tiki purist too.
