“You want alternative culture? Here’s the real thing. Francesco Adinolfi looks beyond the camp value and discovers the exotic urges that drove a generation that was supposed to be respectable. This terrific book reminds you that some of the most unique records ever made can still be found at your local garage sale-and that it’s never too late to discover how to live.�- Brett Milano , author of The Sound of Our Town: A History of Boston Rock & Roll and Vinyl Junkies: Adventures in Record Collecting, "Part cult music and record colllectors' delight and part intriguing pop cultural study, Mondo Exotica is . . . a generally entertaining read that sheds some light on how larger cultural, social, and political trends are reflected in popular music." - Chris Heim , KMUW-FM, "[I]nterviews with some of exotica's prime movers and shakers, most notably [Martin] Denny, Piero Piccioni and Esquivel, provide additional insight and immediacy to this fascinating study." - Ken Hollings , The Wire, "Adinolfi contextualizes the 1950s exotica trend by placing it within a long history of Western musical exoticism. He ably documents instances of cultural appropriation, from seventeenth-century motifs of the Indies to Mozart's search for musical expressions evocative of 'that elusive Turkish flavor' (37)." - Khalil Anthony Johnson Jr., American Quarterly, " Mondo Exotica is a cornucopia of data documenting lounge music and culture and their mid-1990s revival. Francesco Adinolfi has written a book that is as fun to read as the lounge lifestyle is fun to live!"-- Otto Von Stroheim , DJ, founder of Tiki News , and organizer of the annual Tiki Oasis weekend event, "Crammed with facts about sounds, composers, their histories, reminiscences and a whole lot more, Adinolfi has more than done his research, which , in such a odd, diverse, and obscure field of music, has to be applauded. . . . [A] very worthy edition to any bachelor pad. . . ." - Jonny Trunk, Record Collector, " Mondo Exotica is a cornucopia of data documenting lounge music and culture and their mid-1990s revival. Francesco Adinolfi has written a book that is as fun to read as the lounge lifestyle is fun to live!"- Otto Von Stroheim , DJ, founder of Tiki News , and organizer of the annual Tiki Oasis weekend event, "You want alternative culture?

Ultimately, this work is incredibly engaging and entertaining, equal parts mondo and exotic." - Kim Cunningham, Visual Studies, "You want alternative culture? Here's the real thing.

Mondo Exotica is less a tribute to the Cold War era of musical exoticism than revealing testimony to the fads and fancies inhabiting the deep millennial fold separating the 20th century from the 21st. . . . the 'cocktail generation' alluded to in the book's subtitle is firmly located in the 1990s rather than the 1950s. . . . What emerges from the pages of Mondo Exotica is a view of 'exotic Easy Listening' as a form of cultural pathology rather than a closely defined musical genre . . . [a] fascinating study."--Ken Hollings, The Wire, April 2008 "Crammed with facts about sounds, composers, their histories, reminiscences and a whole lot more, Adinolfi has more than done his research, which, in such an odd, diverse and obscure field of music, has to be applauded...a very worthy edition to any bachelor pad."
