Martin Denny- The Enchanted Sea

17500235712_5744b56e57_bWow.  Ending the month with an Exotica classic as well as ending what has been an easy week of post writing with an artist who is no stranger to this blog.  You know what that means- a short post.  Yay!! This was $2.00. It was previously owned by Hugh W Browne of Perdue Street in Dallas, Texas.arte

This was perhaps Martin Denny’s tenth album.  Released in 1960, it was at a point where Denny was still on top of his game in the Exotica movement.  It has all the Denny trademarks on it, including animal sounds and unusual instrumentation.  The songs also have a nautical theme/sound to them.

For a sample, I was really torn as there are so many good points here.  My favorite tracks include the title track,”Floatsom & Jetsam”, “Sentimental Journey” and my favorite from Bioshock, “Beyond The Sea”.18jprc1k4chw1png

After some debate and pondering on the issue, i decided to go with the title track, “The Enchanted Sea”, mainly because it has those trademark bird sounds.dscn5309-800x790

Top Rated album.  And what a way to end this months blog run.  Totally easy week.
