Baxter, Les
African Jazz
Composer, conductor, arranger, and musician Les Baxter is fondly remembered as one of the forefathers of the 1950s
exotica sound, alongside other luminaries such as Arthur Lyman, Martin Denny, and Juan Garcia Esquivel. 1959's African
Jazz is one of his most renowned and sought-after titles, at times moody and dark, at others light and whimsical,
sometimes within the same song. Quintessential mood music from the master himself. Pressed on 180-gram vinyl.
