EVERYONE that donates during this promotion will receive a LuxuriaMusic bumpersticker. What have you got to lose?

To enter the contest, just go to our donations page and float us at least five bills.

Here's what you might win...

 Bwana’A / Bahia.
Recorded on the heels of Lyman’s million selling Taboo these 1958 and 1959 releases offer 24 tracks of quintessential exotica. Possibly the purest exotica of the bunch.









On Broadway / The Colorful Percussions.
On Broadway from 1959 takes a brief detour from the tropics to the Great White Way, while 1962’s The Colorful Percussions returns to Lyman’s mix of popular melody and Polynesian flavor.









The Many Moods of Arthur Lyman
/ Love For Sale. 
Two bracingly eclectic albums, from 1962 and 1963, respectively, featuring “Sicilian Holiday,” “Jungle Flower,” “March of the Siamese Children” and more.








Cottonfields / Blowin’ In The Wind.
These two 1963 releases share a folk flavor, highlighted by Lyman’s take on the Bob Dylan title tune as well as nods to the then-hot bossa nova sound.









Isle of Enchantment
/ Polynesia.
These are 1964 and 1965 releases from the exotica master.  But despite the titles, these two albums are salted with standards along the more piquant Polynesian fare.






Lyman ‘66 / The Shadow of Your Smile. 
A little exotica, a little Broadway, a little Hollywood, even a little rock ‘n’ roll. Tracks range from “E Lei Ka Lei Lei” to “Hang On Sloopy.”










Ilikai / At The Port of Los Angeles. 
This pair of 1967 releases contains “Ilikai,” “Sea Breeze,” “Medley from South Pacific” and even “La Bamba” - 25 tracks in all.









Latitude 20 / Aphrodisia.
A pair of 1968 releases that draw from everywhere - Brazil, Hawaii, Ireland, Mexico, Japan and the U.S.A. Features “Latitude,” “The Day the Fish Came Out,” “Manha de Carnaval,” “Island in the Sun,” “Maori Flea” and more







Winner’s Circle / Today’s Greatest Hits. The 22 tracks on this two-fer wre winners indeed as Lyman forsook his tropical blend to tackle contemporary chart smashes on these two 1960 albums. Contain’s “Love Is Blue,” “Everybody’s Talkin’,” and “Hawaii 5-0.”
