Leslie Thompson "Les" Baxter (1922 - 1996) is one of the inventors of the "Exotica" sound, a special form of easy listening that offered listeners a sound vacation in the stereophonic comfort of their own living room, a trip full of imaginary rituals and exciting taboos .
The Texas composer, arranger and orchestra leader, who studied piano at the Detroit Conservatory, decided against a career as a concert pianist in favor of swing, the popular music of the time. At 21 he played the saxophone for the Freddie Slack Big Band, tried his luck as a singer and joined Mel Tormé's Mel-Tones two years later. Studio and soundtrack work - for example for Nat "King" Cole or Yma Sumac - led to successful concept albums of his own orchestral suites such as "Ritual Of The Savage", "The Passions", "Caribbean Moonlight" or "Space Escapade", all of which can be found among the twenty original albums on this box.
Understand ›Exotica‹ as a kind of ›world music‹ of the late fifties and early sixties - and then relax, lean back and enjoy the ›advanced naïvity‹ of these inventive and dramatically arranged and produced soundtracks for the kitschy travel film in your head .
