LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

Available again.......one of the jewels in the crown of the original Rev-Ola run.. The Exotic Sounds of Martin Denny.....with THAT cover of the exotica girl Sandy Warner.....yes indeed! A product of Martin Denny and his producer Les Baxter, the two lynchpins of the original exotica/space age pop scene in the 1950's and it's more recent revival.......and this really is the best of Martin Denny, containing his original breakthrough hit "Quiet Village" and a whole bunch of classics beloved of Denny connoseurs from Herb Alpert to Brian Wilson to Genesis P.Orridge......The sound of a future that never actually happened, as imagined by post-war GI's on a tropical island.....Denny's impact on the staid music world of the 1950's and his continuing and growing influence on musicians is acknowledged worldwide, from Don the Beachcomber's and the Shell Bar to your door....Martin Denny!
