About the artist

Les Baxter

Les Baxter, the man, the myth, the exotica legend. With a career spanning over five decades, Baxter has made a name for himself as one of the most innovative and influential figures in the world of music. Known for his iconic lounge music sound and his pioneering use of different global influences, Baxter has truly left his mark on the industry. Born in Mexia, Texas in 1922, Baxter's musical journey began at a young age when he first started playing piano. He quickly developed a passion for music and went on to study at the Detroit Conservatory of Music before making his way to Los Angeles, where he would ultimately make his mark on the music scene. Baxter's unique blend of jazz, pop, and exotic influences has been praised by critics and fans alike. His 1951 album "Ritual of the Savage" is often cited as one of the defining works of the exotica genre, with its lush arrangements and exotic rhythms capturing the imaginations of listeners around the world. Despite his undeniable talent and influence, Baxter has remained somewhat of a mysterious figure in the music world. Known for his quirky personality and eccentric sense of style, Baxter has always marched to the beat of his own drum, unapologetically doing things his own way. So, whether you're a die-hard fan of exotica music or just looking to expand your musical horizons, Les Baxter is a name you need to know. With his timeless classics and unparalleled creativity, Baxter is a true musical icon whose influence will be felt for generations to come.
