ASTRO SOUNDS is insane. The bulk of their catalog is not meant to be, um, interesting. Just pretty much background music. That's sort of the appeal I guess. Cheap string versions of the hits. Like how now we have the Vitamin String Quartet. Same crap really.
Les Baxter is my favorite as far as actually being incredibly awesome. I swear some of the drum parts he came up with (like on DUNWICH or HELL'S BELLES) sounds like something Madlib would be dropping today. Insanely forward thinking.
