She is a mystery singer who was introduced by Les Baxter on his 1962 "The Primitive and The Passionate" album, obviously in the vein of his earlier voice talent discoveries Yma Sumac and Bas Sheva. But if you are a Les fan, you probably know all this: I am curious about the story of this "Tiki", and what she looked like. Here's a clip from the above credited show - albeit no Tiki in sight: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tY8bdEHJ66w [ Edited by: bigbrotiki 2013-01-12 12:03 ]
