Martin Denny – Exotica Volume II (Vinyl)
Martin Denny's second Exotica LP, released in 1957 literally a few weeks after Exotica, is named Exotica Volume II.
The Exotica craze was running smoothly, with millions of North American people buying tiki torches, related mugs, pink plastic flamingos and bamboo curtains. And sure enough these people wanted the proper aural ambience for this neo-primitive lifestyle, and so they bought all things tiki and Exotica.
The Martin Denny Group, consisting of pianist, marimba player and arranger Martin Denny himself, drummer Harold Chang, birdcalling percussionist August "Augie" Colón, mallet instrumentalist Julius Wechter and temporary bassist Bernard Miller, was on the rise and the band explores another great return to the formula, and since this very formula wasn't fully carved out yet, Exotica Volume II paints 12 exciting panoramas of lushness and dreaminess.

OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
