The sleeve is very good+, has original plastic wrap, the vinyl is fairly clean, also very good +.
From the liner notes: "When the Out-Islanders interpret the alluring music of the islands, it is sometimes lush, sometimes rhythmically swinging. And at all times the sounds of the Out-Islanders have a discretely seasoned exotic flavor. This discretion comes in part from the presence of Billy May and Charlie Barnet. These two, perhaps better known for their success with other types of music, have great feeling for the music of the South Seas. Because of this, and their love for the splendor of the out-islands, they formed the Out-Islanders for this recording. The all-around brilliance of Billy's arranging, the saxophone artistry of Charlie, the delightful island sounds and songs all add up to a real listening experience in this Polynesian fantasy.”
