After the Game (Survivors)
Apache
Brazil
Summer Means New Love
Miserlou
12-bar Blues (Beatles
Rubber Soul outtake
)
Diamond Head
Flying
Common (DW)
I've Got Plenty O Nuttin'
Rumble
Honky Tonk
Mrs. O'leary's Cow (66/04)

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

"Mexico Trilogy"?
I refer to it in my post on "Bambu-What would you do?"
There's evidence of Dennis working on a
Mexican Trilogy
with Time for Bed, Mexico, and a track (in my opinion) that mixes Time for Bed and San Miguel.

When I was a kid Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass was the only thing I'd listen to. Little did I know that Hal Blaine was drumming on many of my favorite tunes!
The ending of 'Mexico' really blew my mind one day - I had heard the song before, but for some reason that outro really struck me that day.....I think that's why I added it to the list. You're right, the song really doesn't go anywhere, but neither does most of the exotica music on my list. It is fantastic music to listen to while laying in a hammock....not a care in the world.

Also, if anyone here like exotica and hasn't heard Murry Wilson's album I highly recommend it. Some songs are quite terrible (or just not my style), but others are really well orchestrated.

Yeah, I quite enjoy it myself.
I had a copy burnt to CD but it now skips a lot with how many listens it received.
His cover of Warmth of the Sun is a great instrumental...unfortunately, I can't remember any of the other tunes names besides Italia, knowing it's an Al Jardine composition.

I highlight one of those last few tunes because it's very BW/Friends album sounding and highly recommendable.

The Rolling Stones - 2120 South Michigan Avenue (What a cool-sounding track! Groovy trade-offs between organs and bass + harmonica!)
The Beach Boys - Shut Down Pt.II (Fab ringing guitars!)
The Beatles - Flying (like this atmospheric and flowing tune very much!)
David Marks & The Marksmen - Sheriff of Noddingham (so much energy in this short instrumental with somewhat dark mood! Love it!)
The Beach Boys - Here Today (as much as I adore the song itself, I like to listen to the backing track of it)
George Harrison - Tom Cat (concert)
Kaleidoscope (UK) - Mediaeval Masquerade (I dig flutes in this! Very beautiful Mozartish melody!)
Brian Jones - original soundtrack of "Degree of Murder" (I'm amazed by psychedelic staccato mellotron or what it is and variety of sound effects!)
Brian Jones - Your Eyes Are Like A Cup of Tea: Reprise (I know, the music's sort of monotonous, but I enjoy it all the same! It's like tranquilizer for my mind!)
You need to hear the "long version" of '2120 South Michigan Avenue' with the ultra-cool Keith Richards guitar trade-offs included. This version was apparently too long to make the cut on the original '12x5' album.

Sleepwalk. Makes it hard to even think of other instrumentals.
Though the backing track of "Let Him Run Wild" is pretty dang awesome.
