Two pieces of '50s exotica feature on this third Popcorn release. "On A Tropical Island" is an irresistibly seductive number, featuring singer Anna Valentino. Wonderfully jazzy with a Latin rhythm underpinning, this is such an evocative sound. On the flip is a very early piece: bandleader and croon-cat Ray McKinley's 1949 rendition of the song "Similau." There are a couple of other versions of the song, but this is really the best version, on vinyl for the first time.
