We've talked about them a few times here: Here: http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=92&forum=11&vpost=751 Here: http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=2539&forum=11 They come highly recommended by me, although they are more moderen to be classified as "Tiki music".

At some point I'll have to haul them out and give them another listen. I think they're perhaps a bit more modern than I like. If I recall correctly, they lean a bit into Esquivel-ly territory, and he's another one I like a little but not a lot.

Yeah I feel the same way, Sweet Cinnamon Punch is a great, mellow song and one of my all-time favorites, definitely my favorite track on Uh-Oh. Fits in well with an uptempo exotica mix. CE's Solid State is a great track too, more moog-sounding than most of Tipsy, but really great.

Once the original tapes proved to be popular, the individual parts or pieces were re-recorded by San Francisco musicians, and then brought back into the computer and re-mixed again. Voila! Instant (or not so intsant) masterpiece. I love this record! It's one of my all time favorites. And, I'm not just saying that because I used play experimental music with David Gardner (of Tipsy).
