Does anyone know the name of the song that plays during the opening of this video??? El Guincho samples it on his record.... so cool.

I heard this song the other say in Starbucks and had to get the title. Last time I heard it was 23 years ago when I was in the 2nd grade and we put on the Ausin Circus revue...theme song for the elephants with their paper machet heads and 2 guys under a sheet with a little girl sitting on one of their necks. Still some good music!

`Africa` I always associated it with Indonesia (or thereabouts) and gamelon music. Great music!

This was my fifties Hawaiian dream. It's so great to hear it again.

The irony is that "Quiet Village" was recorded by Denny at Universal Recording Studios on the corner of Rush and Walton in January, 1958, when it was about 20 below in Chicago. The magic of ShowBiz never ceases to amaze me.

I heard this tune a long time ago before I knew anything of Denny and Exotica and for some reason I always associated this with Africa. I would have never expected Hawaii

I've always loved this tune. Thanks for posting
