Our Take

Les Baxter's "Skins!" is like taking a musical safari through the wild world of percussion. This album is a sonic explosion of rhythms and beats that will have you dancing like a maniac in no time. From the tribal drums of "Jungle Flower" to the hypnotic bongos of "The Ritual," Baxter takes you on a journey through exotic lands without ever leaving your living room. The production on "Skins!" is top-notch, with each instrument sounding crisp and clear. Baxter's expert arranging skills shine through, as he weaves together a tapestry of sound that is both intricate and infectious. The album has a vintage vibe that will transport you back to the golden age of exotica, while still feeling fresh and modern. Tracks like "Banana Boy" and "Quiet Village" showcase Baxter's playful side, with quirky melodies and playful rhythms that will leave you grinning from ear to ear. The album is a perfect blend of fun and sophistication, making it a must-listen for any music lover. Overall, "Skins!" is a delightful romp through the world of percussion, with Les Baxter as your trusty guide. So grab your dancing shoes and get ready to groove to the infectious beats of this timeless classic. You won't be disappointed.
