Jeff Chenault - Really enjoyed the Exotica syposium...one question....Why NO mention of Esquivel ? I know he's more Space Age bachelor pad more than Exotica, but I think he warrants a mention.

You said it for me. Esquivel is definitely more Space Age bachelor pad music than Exotica. He did have a few tracks that border on Exotica though. I had to condense my seminar to one hour so I mentioned the Exotica biggies and other oddball items.
What I am bummed about is that I didn't mention the Tikiyaki orchestra. I will remedy this next time I promise. You guys are more Exotica than Esquivel IMHO. :)
Cheers and Mahalo,
Jeff
I suppose you could do an entire Sympoium on Esquivel himself, but only us geeks would be there. :)
Funny, but as I found out from your seminar, it seems that little or no classic Exotica uses Hawaiian Lap steel in it's instrumentation....so I feel good about doing something a little different to the genre.
Look forward to seeing the next one.
