But questions of its origins still linger. As such, BEAR FAMILY RECORDS now submits 'Wild Boy: The Lost Songs Of Eden Ahbez' as fresh evidence in the quest for answers. Over the past twenty years Ahbez has gone from cult figure to harbinger of the Sixties flower-power movement. This notion is born out largely by his 1948 ant- hem of universal love, Nature Boy, and his rare solo album from 1960, titled 'Eden's Island' – one of popular music's earliest con- cept albums. 'Wild Boy: The Lost Songs Of Eden Ahbez' both expands the Ahbez catalog and deepens the notion of a psychedelic movement having roots in the 1950s. Side one acts as a compilation of music that Ahbez wrote in the aftermath of Nature Boy. Inclusion of songs like Palm Springs by the Ray Anthony Orchestra and Hey Jacque by Eartha Kitt give listeners the chance to hear obscure cuts by big-name artists in the context of Ahbez for the first time.

  • Martin Denny and the Sounds of Exotica
    Martin Denny and the Sounds of Exotica This in an updated version of an article originally published in Film Score Monthly (Vol. 2, No. 4, June 1997). A look at the unique circumstances of Forbidden Island. The mysteries of the tropics await! by Kerry J. Byrnes, Okemos High Class of 1963 Some twenty years ago John Bender=s article (“First Dive...Into the Dark Pool of ‘Soundtrack Related’”) published in Film Score Monthly (FSM#69) prompted me to pick up the I, Swinger CD by the musical group Combustible Edison, especially as Bender had referred to the CD as a “knock off” of a number of musicians, including Martin Denny, one of my all-time favorites. But I was most intrigued by Bender’s statement that Denny had “even managed to get one film score under his belt.” Bender=s next sentence added the needed clarification: “Let’s hope Denny=s music for Forbidden Island isn’t as hopelessly lost as the film itself seems to be.” But Forbidden Island, as later clarified, is not lost (though not yet commercially available on DVD). Produced by C.B. Griffith in 1959, Forbidden Island was shown on cable’s TNT in August of 1992 as part of a package of films TNT licensed from Columbia, now owned by Sony (film not included in the current package of newer films Sony has licensed to TNT). Fortunately, a video of TNT’s screening of Forbidden Island was preserved by none other than the Maestro of Exotica – Martin Denny – who kindly loaned his copy so I could make a dub.

  • Somerset Records Discography
    Somerset/Stereo Fidelity by David Edwards, Patrice Eyries & Mike Callahan © 2018 by Mike Callahan Somerset/Stereo Fidelity Records Discography Somerset Records was a division of Miller International Co. located in Media Pennsylvania. David L Miller was the President and had previously owned, Essex Records and Trans-World Records. Somerset was started in 1958. The output of the label was popular, jazz and classical. Of the first 63 releases on Somerset, 62 of them were straight reissues of Trans-World albums. After Somerset/Stereo Fidelity, Miller was involved with two other budget labels Alshire and Sutton. The Sales Manager was Joe Martin and Miller handled A&R. Somerset was a budget label whose albums listed for sale for $1.98, when most albums sold for $3.98 in the ‘50s and ‘60s. A subsidiary label was Stereo Fidelity, the only difference between the two labels was that the monaural record was a Somerset and the stereo record was on the Stereo Fidelity label. The numbers were the same. Main Series Canadian LP’s in this series did not use the last two zeros, for example SF-12700 was SF-127, leading to endless confusion about the Somerset release numbers.
