You owe it to yourself to experience the voice of Yma Sumac.

  Arthur Lyman and his Hawaiian perscussionists give us a multitude of island sounds including actual tropical bird calls.

It was recorded in Honolulu's Aluminum Dome and is Ultra Cool!

 

No, not a misspelling - TABU is actually an Afro-Cha (similar to a Cha-Cha).

Regardless, this Gilligan's Island Tina Louise look-a-like appears to be threatened by a native congo drummer...

 

  Bay area resident Korla Pandit plays his Tropical Magic on the pipe organ.

Of the many interesting selections, he shares his version of TABU

 

This 1959 RCA recording has a ala-naturale dancing fire maiden featured on the cover.

So who cares about the music?
