  I was a free lance photographer in Hawaii for over 25 years and did many record album covers.  I'm sure that the model's name on the cover was Joyce Ontai (Filipina/Japanese parentage, I believe).  Mr. Kostalanez had me called late one evening to clandestinely witness and photograph his wedding to his sweet and lovely bride, there in Honolulu.  I'm now 82 y.o. and have so many treasured memories that continue to serve my peaceful countenance nowadays, that tend to mask and void today's current turmoils.  Ah, sweet... now listening to Andre's rendition of Flamingo that quite suits my reverie!  Quite appropo.

  Lotus land is one of the most mysterious and eerie songs no matter who spins it

  One of the lush orchestral master at work!! Every album of Andre Kostelanetz is filled with lush orchestral music! A fan and an admirer from Pakistan!

  Que bella musica. Nos transporta a una epoca de buen gusto y clase  , distinta a la mediocre de hoy en dia

  I listened to this album in 1955 when I was a teenager. Now I see Hip Hop music on TV commercials. Oh how the world has changed. Oh well.

  Wir haben hier in Norddeutschland gerade Temperaturen von 30 bis 35 Grad Celsius! Da ist die wunderbare tropische Musik von André Kostelanetz natürlich mehr als passend. Dankeschön für's Teilen! 🌴😎👍

  I just found this album among the hundred or so that I was given when a friend of the family passed away recently. I think I have a treasure trove of, well, treasures. Thank you for playing this as I don't have a turn table any more.
