We would expect no less! :D The unfortunate thing is, the average listener never bothers to read the liner notes. But then again, the average listener probably wouldn't buy a CD like this in the first place. It would have been nice to have this when the BOT came out. Because that is exactly how I first read the book: exotica music on, cocktail in hand, book open. Man, that's my kind of studying. I recall you did a "Music to read Tiki Modern by" live set on Luxuria radio a couple of years ago. That was quite enjoyable. Tiki is so alluring when all the elements come into play: sight, sound and taste. Of course, as you said, this is OUR idealized version of Tiki really because it was hardly experienced this way back in the day.
