This record states "The lure of the exotic has fascinated men since time immemorial, enticing them on to adventures in strange and exotic lands", and 12 tracks cover the range of what 1961 America thought "exotic". You'll find Tiki-adjacent renditions of "Bali Ha'i" and "The Cockeyed Mayor of Kaunakakai" here among other odd/diverse selections. Of note is Doc Severinsen (American Jazz trumpeter of Johnny Carson fame) playing the trumpet.
