James Last's Well Kept Secret (the 2nd of 3 good James Last records that exist in the world) gets unearthed and makes its way to our soundstage. We also satisfy another request for MORE Rod McKuen; take a trip to Bongosville; learn all about a Man called Dagger; and sneak a peek at a Naughty Operetta, courtesy of Billy May. Plus the Tikiyaki Orchestra, Waitiki, and Robert Drasnin bring us brand new exotica released this summer.
