Exotica is a studio album by Kip Hanrahan released in March 1993, featuring guests including Jack Bruce, Leo Nocentelli, and Milton Cardona. 'G-d Is Great' was co-written by Bruce.[2]
Background[]
When compared with the previous album Tenderness, Exotica was described as "a looser outing; uneven, but flowing with hotter blood".[3]
Hanrahan spoke highly of his time recording with Jack Bruce, saying "with Jack you are spoilt, because you start out with your sketch and finish up with a gorgeous painting".[2]
Critical reception[]
Music reviewer Jack Burke described Exotica in the Lake Geneva Regional News as "soothing and provocative both, ranging far afield and home again".[4]
