I also love Johnny Richards' "The Rites of Diablo" and Les Baxter's "Passions" -both of which are in that Exotica-as-horror category.

Speaking of Les Baxter's "Passions"...

:o

That album has some truly beautiful moments. However, as a whole I find it frightening! I respect the artistic frame of mind from which it was created, but seriously...

:o

When I was a kid and was annoying my mom a bit too much, she would actually put this album on and play the "Terror" cut. Freaked me out every time! The innocent humming at the beginning, then the footsteps, then that unholy scream at the end. Holy crap that stuff scared me!

:o

I'm not sure Les Baxter had ever been used before as a disciplinary device.

My mom didn't play.
