No I don't, and I didn't intentionally leave him out. I just couldn't decide which album(s) of his to include. If I'm representing Les Baxter and Martin Denny each by a 2-disc compilation album, then not owning any Arthur Lyman comps, what two standalone studio albums would more or less exemplify his sound in the holy trinity of Exotica? I own most of the RykoDisc reissues as well as all of the semi-recent Collectors' Choice Music twofer reissues and would probably be inclined to pick from that pool rather than purchase something new, although there are a number of Arthur Lyman comps on the market. Is one of those better than the others? Hmmm...
