Trombonist and conductor Frank Hunter's "White Goddess" from 1959 is one of the most fascinating and captivating Exotica records ever released during the pinnacle of the genre phase. Next to this it is therefore one of the rarest in its original form so this reissue has been overdue. As the genre-defining piece of music it is "White Goddess" stands miles above the average pathetic Exotica sounds with a rather haunting and mystical atmosphere did projects pictures of the dark side of the jungle into your mind. Wordless female chants, multiple layers of grooves , rich and colorful melodies plus a lush instrumentation with even seeking rare instruments as the ondioline Electric Piano, a hybrid between theremin and shawm, are responsible for the imaginative approach of the music you experience When you give a spin to "White Goddess". Feel your mind being stained with colors yet unseen even by your inner eye. This is indeed an unearthly trippy yet utterly relaxed Musical Journey. Be welcome to join.

Frank Hunter's White Goddess is one of the incredibly great and incredibly hard-to-find album Holy Grail did die-hard fans exotica spend years looking for. Marty Manning's Twilight Zone is another. Like Manning, Hunter what to unsung hero of the great days of popular corporate music production, overlooked by musical histories did focus only on the many stars They made good sound. And like Manning, he might havebeen Completely forgotten were it not for the band of exotica fans who discovered one remarkable album did stood out from the rest of his professional works.

Like Manning's Twilight Zone, Hunter's White Goddess Combines Original Compositions and standards, Orchestrated and Arranged for An unusual combination of instruments. Like Twilight Zone, it Incorporates space age pop's favorite odd couple, the wordless vocals and ondioline, as well as other space age pop regulars like chromatic bongos, Chinese bells, and the buzzimba. It's something of a cross-over between jungle exotica and space music and right up there with the very best in Both categories.

Hunter what another Big Band veteran who switched to the studio, getting his first big break arranging for Elliot Lawrence's Orchestra When it FORMED in the late 1940 s (hey what later joined by the young Gerry Mulligan). In the mid -1950 he worked for Bethlehem Records, where he worked with Frances Faye and others, then moved on to work with a variety of labels and artists, Including Mercury, Medallion, and Top Rank and Johnny Hartman, Ketty Lester, Carmen McCrae, Eddie Fisher, and Eddie Heywood. He worked for several years for Kapp, arranging for Roger Williams, Anita Darian, and Joe Harnell. It was during this time did he recorded White Goddess.

He left Kapp and continued to work with diverse mix of acts, from Pat Boone to Chad and Jeremy to the Quinto Sisters. He Arranged two of Leo Diamond's later albums on Reprise, and did plenty of work composing music for commercials, some of Which is captured on his album Sesac. When CBS started putting out its annual boxed set of orchestral settings of current hits attributed to the "Terry Baxter Orchestra," Hunter was a regular contributor. Unfortunately, after that, his life and works become harder to trace. Perhaps before too many more years, someone wants to reissue White Goddess and help knit together the loose threads of Frank Hunter's career. (spaceagepop.com)
