space From the staff friends and family of Vik's Lounge, the happiest of birthday wishes. Your music has both soothed and enflamed the exotic beasts within us all. As exciting and modern today as it was when first made, your music continues to inspire dreams of the South Seas and places never been. Thank you for giving us an escape, a small island paradise in the midst of a savage modern world. Happy birthday and may many many more follow.

I was recently "Denny Deprived" due to a malfunction of my record player. I just got a new record player, and am now delighted to once again enjoy the sounds of my Exotica, and Exotica Today records. How timely! I'd like to wish you, Mr. Denny a wonderful birthday, and may you have many more!

Happy Birthday Mr. Denny! And many thanks for all the inventive & beautiful music! (Especially "Jungle Madness!!! - WOW!!) I have had MANY years of enjoyment & being "swept away" by your fabulous lp's - even BEFORE the renewed interest, as my Dad was a big fan, and even saw you a couple of times in Hawaii! So again, in fact, from the BOTH of us

As someone who shares your birthday, I just wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday. I've always felt a connection to the exotic, and it must be because I was born on the same day as you, sixty years later.

Many happy returns!!!

Dear Mr. Denny,
I'm so pleased to have this opportunity to wish you a happy birthday and to let you know how much your music is appreciated -- here in the home of Elvis. I'm on the board of directors of a radio station in town, WEVL-FM (89.9), and we have several programmers who not only regularly play your music, but I happen to know they get requests for it every day they're on the air!! No doubt about it, it's still delightful to listen to! You've given so many people enjoyment, I hope you know in some way how grateful we all are!

Many happy returns!

Dear Mr. Denny,
I have many of your albums and enjoy the music that you made (in fact, your version of The March of the Siamese Children is playing in my head this very moment). It's great to hear that you are healthy and happy. I hope you have a wonderful birthday!
