The amazing genius of Les Baxter, MOR hitmaker, Jazz innovator, member of Mel Torme's Mel-Tones, acclaimed A&R man and producer to everyone from Yma Sumac to a series of Biker movies. Electronic music pioneer. and here, the Stravinsky-esque grand master of Exotica with his acknowledged masterpiece album! The inspiration for the entire Exotica genre all in one place, here coupled with Baxter's legendary and little heard tone poem The Passions where vocalist Bas Sheva goes absolutely nuts in a gamut of feelings, as Baxter's orchestra spirals to a crescendo of sound! Rev-Ola.

Liner Note Author: Lounge Laura Taylor.
Unknown Contributor Role: Bas Sheva.

Customer Ritual Of The Savage Reviews 




Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars After a hiatus spanning decades...
After a hiatus spanning decades, the original album which started the Exotica musical genre, "Ritual of the Savage", is back on CD! The technical quality is of such excellence that the publisher must have had access to the original master tapes. Gems such as this are usually limited production and when the run is gone, that is it. So if you want this album, buy it now!

Is It...Man Or Astroman? CD  (1993)

Ritual Of The Savage
CD $10.65  Audio Samples
Escapist treats abound from this mysterious, tongue-in-cheek collective from the Southern United States. Man or Astro-man? have an ear for yesterday's sounds of tomorrow, as they decorate their mostly instrumental tracks with obscure sound bytes from out-of-date sci-fi movies and forgotten TV shows. Silly, dangerous, occasionally sloppy, but never boring, their album Is It Man...or Astro-Man? is the answer for everyone running low on laser gun/go-go/surf/spy/cowboy/drag racing/'60s/bullfighter/Mars-invasion/motorbike music. Songs like "Taxidermist Surf," "Invasion of the Dragonmen," and "Journey to the Stars" (originally by the Ventures) gallop along with the energy of a dozen wild stallions headed for Neptune. "Nitrous Burn Out" is a fantastic bit of racetrack romp, liberally mixed with roaring pistons and accident bulletins along the way. With anything so aggressively "up" in nature, there are a couple moments that inevitably ...

(2 albums on 1 CD) "Omnibust" is a great comedy LP from the 60's featuring takeoffs of classic TV shows. Tracks include: Ah-1 Ah-2 Ah Sunset Strip, Loretta's Soaperetta, Captain Bangeroo, The Late Late Movies Part 1, The Wonderful World Of Hari Kari, I S 2 LPs on 1 CD: OMNIBUST (1960)/60 YEARS OF MUSIC AMERICA HATES BEST (1960).
Liner Note Author: Spike Jones.
Arranger: Carl Brandt.
Omnibust/60 Years of Music America Hates Best pairs two of Spike Jones' Liberty albums from 1960 on one disc. Omnibust is a largely spoken word parody of television programming that takes a swipe at Lawrence Welk, children's programming, commercials, soap operas, and the then-popularity of detective show theme music. "I Search for Golden Adventure (In My Seven Leaky Boots)" manages to parody adventure shows and Martin Denny's "The Quiet Village" at ...

Les Baxter Fruit Of Dreams CD  (2005)

Ritual Of The Savage
CD $13.85  2 stars
The Fruit Of Dreams is a fantastic combination of Les Baxter's rarest, best and most pure Exotica albums: Ports Of Pleasure (1957) and The Sacred Idol (1960). Both these records are rightly acclaimed as international masterpieces and this is their first release anywhere on CD. El Records. FRUIT OF DREAMS reissues two rare Les Baxter albums: PORTS OF PLEASURE and THE SACRED IDOL. Never before released on CD, these songs represent the best in exotica.
While Esquivel will always be the uncontested king of "Space Age Bachelor Pad Music," for sheer glorious kitsch, few hold a candle to Les Baxter, one of the true pioneers of "exotica," the easy listening variant which conjured up the shades of various distant lands through dramatic instrumental ...

When a veteran like mandolinist/producer/label owner David Grisman states that new bands rarely catch and keep his attention and Old School Freight Train has succeeded in winning him over for the long haul, that is critical praise that only a foolish writer would challenge.
