ignore the hipster factor /embrace true psychedelics

the three suns must've been pretty big in south africa to warrant this local pressing from the fifties. i know little about them, apart from that "moving and grooving" is a space age milestone. this lp has their soothing accordians, and mostly has a feel of the islands. i associate it with "the versatile mancini." Of course the theme is around the world so we are also treated to arabic moments and full on space age hifi action. via 01 - come back to sorrento 02 - in a persian market 03 - lady of shangri-la 04 - a song of old hawaii 05 - blue bells of scotland 06 - the sheik of araby 07 - galway bay 08 - in a little spanish town 09 - on a little street in singapore 10 - mexican hat dance 11 - far away places 12 - song of india 13 - alouette 14 - londonderry air 15 - hindustan 16 - bali ha'i 17 - april in portugal 18 - viennese refrain ... i am still searching for the KING of all suns LP's online. (Twighlight Memories) but this is still GREAT! ENTER the Three Suns universe.
