Compilation – Exotica: Music for a Bachelor Pad – Yma Sumac / Les Baxter / Percy Faith – Compact Disc
Exotica: Music for a Bachelor Pad gathers lush orchestral pop associated with Yma Sumac, Les Baxter and Percy Faith. Dramatic vocals, sweeping strings, percussion and studio-created atmosphere make the collection a useful introduction to mid-century lounge and exotica listening.
