| The Arthur Lyman Group was a musical ensemble formed by vibraphonist Arthur Lyman in the late 1950s. They were known for popularizing a style of music called exotica, which combined Latin rhythms, jazz, and Polynesian-inspired melodies. The group's music often featured exotic percussion instruments and lush, tropical sounds. They achieved considerable success in the 1960s with their album "Yellow Bird" and their performances in popular venues such as Don the Beachcomber's and the Shell Bar. |
