Fav Lp- Aphrodisia by Bob Romeo, his Flute and the Jungle Sextet. Eden Abez wrote a few on this and according to the liner notes it "has been known to turn strong men and circumspect ladies into temporary zombies."

Fav Cover- Fire Goddess, suitable for framing, and mine has fire red vinyl

Fav artist-Martin Denny, he's consistent, Les Baxter tends to get trapped in the ultra easy listening zone.

Artist More People should hear- Orienta The Markko Polo Adventures. I'd wish I owned a Chinese restaurant just so I could play it in the background.

Les Batxer's Skins is also a good one.

Rarest LP Denny's Exotic with the side 2 pressing on both sides. It's Quiet Village free.

And if I may add another category- Cheesiest Exotic concept- Enchanted Island by The Now Sounds of Hawaii, features 70s pop music peppered with Haw Slide guitar and a hula dancer hugging a coconut tree on the cover.
