I've been collecting Hawaiian/exotica LPs since kindergarten..LOL.
Favorite lp: Exotic Island/Surfmen (also realeased as Tradewinds Romance From Hawaii To Tahiti by The South Seas Serenaders) A totally classy, elegant exotica venture. Timeless.
Best Cover: Hum...probably Drasnin's Voodoo.
Rarest LP I own: ? Bora Bora by Les Baxter (which I got for .50 at a cut out sale when I was a kid.) White Goddess by Frank Hunter. Que Mango by Les Baxter, Provoctiv by McFarland..I think those are all fairly rare.
Needs More Exposure: Polynesian Paradise/Phil Moore Orchestra (Full Orchestra, plenty of minor chords, exotic), 'Spacifica/Johnny Spencer & His Kona Koasters (great instrumental tracks), Kapu/Milt Raskin..Exotica that always annoyed my mother when I played it in my youth..I think it was too "Oriental" for her taste!
