''Exotica'' is the first album by Martin Denny, released in 1957. It contained Denny's most famous song, "Quiet Village", and spawned an entire genre bearing its name. It was recorded in Webley Edwards' studio (not, as often reported, the Aluminum Dome at Henry J. Kaiser's Hawaiian Village Complex) in Waikiki in December 1956. The album topped Billboard's charts in 1959. The original album was recorded in mono. It was re-recorded in stereo in 1958; by then, however, Denny's popular sideman Arthur Lyman had left the group, and was replaced by Julius Wechter. Denny preferred the original mono version: "It has the original spark, the excitement, the feeling we were breaking new ground." ==Track listing== # "Quiet Village" (Les Baxter) – 3:39 # "Return to Paradise" (Dimitri Tiomkin, Ned Washington) – 2:19 # "Hong Kong Blues" (Hoagy Carmichael) – 2:15 # "Busy Port" (Baxter) – 2:50 # "Lotus Land" (Cyril Scott) – 2:22 # "Similau" (Arden Clar, Harry Coleman) – 1:57 # "Stone God" (Baxter) – 3:07 # "Jungle Flower" (Baxter) – 1:46 # "China Nights" (Shina No Yoru〔 支那の夜 〕) (Nobuyuki Takeoka〔竹岡信幸〕) – 2:01 # "Ah Me Furi" (Gil Baumgart) – 2:08 # "Waipio" (Francis Brown) – 3:11 # "Love Dance" (Baxter) – 2:29 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Exotica (Martin Denny album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
