    A good playable pressing containing "Hernando's Hideaway" should be a pretty memorable experience on large format systems. The rest is as AA says, "elevator music", maybe surf style.: Are those provocative percussion series binaural recordings?
    Not all vegetables make good leaders.

    I just did a net rendezvous and captured a tidbit where Donald Fagen listed Enoch Light's Command label provocative percussion as an influence...apparently there's a lot more to this guy than I thought...

    Record title, Organ Antics by Dick Hyman. Ahhh, such innocent days.
    Opinion is only as valid as its verifiable supporting evidence.

    I've collected the Enoch Light stuff for decades. The early stereo goofy ping pong manipulations are entertaining in a time capsule sort of way, but the instrumental timbres are among the best on record. RCA ribbon and various tube condenser mics... simple all tube recording chain... what's not to like? Huge dynamic range captured on many of these recordings, retrieved admirably these days by tube amps and big ol' horn speakers... yes!
