White Goddess - Frank Hunter And His Orchestra

Frank Hunter And His Orchestra
Kapp Records KS-3019

The jacket notes indicate that Hunter used an "Ondioline, an electronic instrument designed in France, which issues a strange, vibrator sound when the entire keyboard is shifted." There are a lot of other-worldly sound in the mix. Like any good exotica recording you will find yourself transported to another world.
