Tropic Appetites is a jazz album by Carla Bley released in 1974, following her debut Escalator over the Hill . The lyrics are contributed by Bley's friend Paul Haines , based on his journeys to Southeast Asia in the preceding years. Unlike on the orchestral Escalator , the band is an octet, with Julie Tippetts as lead vocalist.[1] [5]
