    Les Baxter is fondly remembered as one of the forefathers of the 1950s exotica sound. 1959's African Jazz is one of his most renowned and sought-after titles, at times moody and dark, at others light and whimsical, sometimes within the same song. Quintessential mood music from the master himself.
