Our Take
Our Take
Les Baxter & His Orchestra's "The Ritual Of The Savage" is a tropical cocktail of exotic sounds that will transport you to a distant island paradise...or maybe just to your local Tiki bar. Baxter's lush orchestrations combine traditional Polynesian instruments with jazzy melodies, creating a mix that is as refreshing as a fruity drink with a little umbrella on top.
From the opening track "Quiet Village," you can almost feel the warm breeze and hear the gentle crash of waves on the shore. It's like a vacation for your ears, with Baxter's arrangements providing the perfect soundtrack for sipping a Mai Tai while watching the sunset.
Despite being released over half a century ago, "The Ritual Of The Savage" still manages to capture that sense of escapism and adventure that makes Tiki culture so alluring. Baxter's use of percussion and strings creates a sense of mystery and excitement, like stumbling upon a hidden treasure on a deserted beach.
So, whether you're a seasoned Tikiphile or just looking for something a little different to spice up your music collection, "The Ritual Of The Savage" is a delightful reminder of a bygone era when the music was as exotic as the drinks. Cheers to Les Baxter & His Orchestra for creating a classic that still manages to enchant listeners to this day.
