Jules Ah See "Manuela Boy"

Post by Derrick Mau »

Just finished this popular Hawaiian medley which was previously recorded by Jules Ah See of Hawaii Calls.

This song is dedicated to my two HSGA buddies, Don Fullmer and Don Woods. :D

I'm playing all instruments. 7 string Rickenbacker Bakelite thru a Roland Micro Cube. This time using the JC Clean setting.

Nice to hear a different take on one of my favorites, and the little solo was cool!

:D I finally got to listen to this after a long weekend of family "gettogethers". As the music started,- everything went hazy and I saw the ghost of Jules Ah See but as the vapors and haze cleared,- I was so happy to see Derrick, in the flesh, playing for us. Man oh Man ! Talk about nice!
Put Peg and I down for your first CD.
