Polynesia by the Buddy Collette Septet stands as a captivating journey through jazz, folk, world, and country influences, embodying the innovative spirit of late '50s exotica. Driven by Collette’s evocative flute and clarinet, this unique concept album explores haunting musical landscapes inspired by Polynesian and Japanese themes, featuring lush arrangements and an ensemble of masterful musicians.
This rare gem—reissued by Trunk Records in 2019—features lyrics penned by A.I. Groeg, all based on ancient Japanese manuscripts, bringing a mysterious and shadowy quality to its compositions. Renowned for its darker, more intense edge compared to albums like Eden Ahbez’s legendary work, Polynesia immerses listeners in a strange and atmospheric sonic world unlike any other in the genre.
