Artist Biography
Available in:

Arthur Lyman (February 2, 1932 – February 24, 2002) was an American jazz vibraphone and marimba player.
His group popularized a style of faux-Polynesian music during the 1950s and 1960s which later became known as exotica. His albums became favorite stereo-effect demonstration discs during the early days of the stereophonic LP album for their elaborate and colorful percussion, deep bass and 3-dimensional recording soundstage.
Lyman was known as "the King of Lounge music."
