doesn't look like an amazing track list, and its short too.
that's part of the reason for the cheap price.

Damn now I feel like a fool,
I guess its a re-issue of Exotica, with a few bonus tracks.
its weird the info on Amazon only shows 12 tracks,
but below it says there are 23. wtf?

Liner notes:
Product Description
2009 collection from the King of Exotic Lounge music. Martin Denny was an American piano-player and composer best known as the father of Exotica. In a long career that saw him performing well into his 80s, he toured the world popularizing his brand of Lounge music which included exotic percussion, imaginative rearrangements of popular songs, and original songs that celebrated Tiki culture. His Exotica album (featured here in full) and it's successor Exotica 2 (some tracks featured here) gave a name to the genre. 23 tracks including 'Quiet Village', 'Ebb Tide', 'Return To Paradise' and more. Motif.

Looks like a reissue of his first Exotica album. No idea if its the original mono or the stereo re-record.
