Publisher's Note
This book launched the current Lounge Music Revival and has single-handedly caused the re-release of hundreds of neglected recordings (virtually every LP pictured has been brought back into print). Featured album cover art is now the hipster style imitated by rock bands. Incredibly Strange Music surveys "easy listening, " "exotica, " and "celebrity" (massive categories in themselves) as well as recordings by (singing) cops and (polka-playing) priest, undertakers, religious ventriloquists, astronauts, and opera-singing parrots.

Industry Reviews
"Fans of ambient music, acid jazz, ehtno-techno, even industrial rock will find the leap back to these genres an easy one to make."
Rolling Stone

"The bible of lounge is Incredibly Strange Music."
Newsweek
