Les Baxter - Caribbean Moonlight 1956

Review

I had no clue, that there is a sub genre with the name Ambient Exotica

@Aetas I have a particular fondness for this genre

Sacred Idol is probably my favorite of Les Baxters albums - its very dramatic

45RPM

I was young when I heard Sister of Mercy - Alice for the first time on 45RPM. It was in one of this early eighties city caves. Ruhrgebiet had a lot them at this time. Four speakers sounded into a room filled with 100 creatures of the night.
Every location more rotten than the other.
At my first hearing, the dance area was fully out of thick aluminum plates, 20m long and 4m wide.
Welded together in three long lines!
Material and hand welders were cheap to get in a culminating steelworker town at this time.
The DJ played the whole EP during the night.
Most fun was the phase, when it rained down sweat and tears from the low ceiling at the end.

When it came out we had no clue at first, that this was a cover.
