Exotic Lands

Kashmiri Song
A High Fidelity Adventure In Exotic Lands
Recorded In France By The Paris Theatre Orchestra
Transworld TWLP 210
1957

Lushly orchestrated if somewhat mild exotica from Dave Miller. Well executed glossy cover art gives the feel of a cover printed somewhat later. Billboard also like the image calling the cover a "big display-plus".

Oddly, only the last track on the B side, "Kashmiri Song" features some stock "bird" sounds as a lead-in to the tune which quickly becomes a standard mood number.

  1. OH! I am SO upset! This COVER was in the bargain stuff at Record King for the last YEAR with the WRONG RECORD inside. I want this so badly since I have seen the cover!!! THANK YOU for FINALLY letting me hear what was supposed to go with this fabulous cover!
