more Hawaiian uploads!
First, for those who missed it as it was tacked onto the end of my other thread:
Andy Iona collection
And here's today's stuff:
Barney Isaacs, Sonny Kamahele, & Benny Kalama live at the House Without A Key
Eddie Kekaula sings Alfred Apaka favorites - Barney Isaacs on steel, includes LP jacket photos
Eddie Kekaula - I'll See You In Hawaii - David Keli'i on steel, includes LP jacket photos
Steel at Kapi'olani Park, 1993 - original tape included performances by Bob Brozman; I did not keep these and wouldn't have included them anyway as I do not have permission from him to share them
Lani & Dick McIntire collection
Thanks again to Keoki Lake and Ron Whitfield, and to Blogger and eBay for connecting fanatics everywhere.

One of those stupid "buy it at Amazon" notices I see. Have submitted a supported ticket; I very much doubt that the album their link points to has the same version of "Blue Hawaii" - presupposing it has it all, since Amazon does not list the tracks on its offering.
If all else fails, I'll remove the one song and upload it again - watch this space.

drats...i was looking forward to that last collection :/
i would imagine anything with words Bing Crosby is flagged...kind of like Disney w/Micky Mouse.
you could do like some of the jazz fake books i see - call it "Blu Hawai'i"

Jerome, not to worry - I did receive a reply from Mediafire. they didn't even know which file got flagged, so it's some bot that lives in the system redirecting to an automatically generated irritating "buy it on Amazon" page. I told them in no uncertain terms that all this material was ripped from sources off-catalog for literally decades, and that IMO to do this without notifying me, their paying customer, was really bad service. We'll see what they say next, and if it's just a matter of taking out the few Crosby tunes, I'll do it and re-post.

Well, here are a bunch of vintage Hawaiian recordings from the 1920s and 30s, courtesy the Yngve Archive of Historic Hawaiian Recordings.

new file!
Very cool Brad, thanks!
Still waiting for Mediafire to do their job right; meanwhile here's another:
all-star Hawaiian steel jam 1985 - featuring Jerry Byrd, Billy Hew Len, Keoki Lake, Barney Isaacs and others, accompaniment by Benny Kalama, Kalani Fernandes, and Hiram Olsen.
I debated whether or not to make this available as it is a recording of a private party; but the gentleman who recorded it encouraged me to share it. As with other live recordings, there are "?" titles, and I hope anyone who wants to fill in the blanks will do so and share the results.
PLEASE NOTE: the Andy Iona collection should be available again as I have just upgraded this account to increase my monthly bandwidth.

Because Mediafire aren't responding to my requests to resolve this redirection to Amazon issue, I have posted the contentious file elsewhere:
Lani & Dick McIntire collection
Enjoy!

No, this one. It is, in fact, called "Nani Wale No 'Oe."Mike Anderson wrote:Jeff, could that unsure "Nani Wale" be this one?

The authorship is unknown, but it was often performed by the Isaacs family.
This is what is commonly called a mele Hawai'i - or a song about Hawai'i. Each island can be identified poetically not by name, but by its most famous flower, its highest mountain peak, or some other unique attribute. In this case, each verse is about a different flower, therefore the action in each verse takes place on a different island. This may also be a reference to a philanderer who has a different lover in every port.

Update: I have now re-uploaded the "all-star jam" with corrected date and updated title notes. I just edited the original link above, so nothing to add here.
Also added JUST the corrected title notes; you can get them here:
all-star Hawaiian steel jam 1985 - title notes
As for who played what, well - it was a long time ago, and what you see is what you get I'm afraid. My advice is just to listen, as a fair bit of it can be figured out. Art Ruymar for example played Kewalo Chimes and Maui Chimes.
Anyway glad it's being enjoyed. Goes well with a Mai-Tai I find.
