You guys are funny, I know this is going to ruffle a few feathers
There is no "Tiki Music" the topic of this thread should be "Exotica Defined"
If you are talking the classic 1950s-60s Tiki Bars/Supperclubs you heard
the popular music of the day and Hawaiian music, no Exotica

(Art Snyder did mention of a rare exception
of Denny & Lyman playing once or twice at the Hollywood "Don the Beachcomber")

Now if you talking "Tiki Revival" well we got all kinds of music that really sounds great
in a Tiki Lounge and you can label it "Tiki Music" if you like (Which I am a big fan of boys & girls)

There is a lot of revisionism going on here in TC, I prefer the actual history as apposed to idealized versions of it and those are the facts.
