Liner, Listening & Album Notes:
The Tiki Delights are back with an 8-song CD full of smooth and lightly swinging Lounge tunes. Delving deeper into the 1960s bossa nova genre, they capture the easy going feel of the time with sax, flutes, vibes, mellow guitars, and excellent piano. Special guests include Mark Riddle/Marty Lush on Vibes … adding a tasty performance on the George Shearing-like instrumental, ‘Cosmopolitan.’
Singers Nicole Witt and Heather Rigdon join the Tiki Delights on 2 songs each, with Tiki Delight Darren Long contributing 2 vocals on ‘Swank’ and ‘All the Stars Are in Your Eyes.’ The entire CD captures the mood of Sinatra, Chet Baker, Jobim.
Pour a nice dry martini, sit back and enjoy the Lounge excursion.– Album’s liner notes (via CDBaby)
