He appears again in Part 4 around 3 minutes in, playing Blue Hawaii. No close up though.....

Maybe some of the Hawaiians will know who he is. He has a nice sound and touch.

It may not be Greg Sardinha, but it looks like him.
The playing on the video is similar also to Greg's style of playing steel.
The date also matches Greg for the time period when he started playing professionally.
Derrick Mau can ask him to verify!
Aloha,

I think you're right, Don. A search for "Greg Sardinha" in Google Images brings up many pictures which look a lot like this guy.

There's certainly a resemblance. Though he doesn't list it as a credit on the television appearance part of his website.

Maybe closer to what he looks like today... but still with smeared glasses, 30+ years ago?, not a chance.

Wow, how did you find that one? Great steel guitar but what an awful show!
Duke Ching maybe?

Doesn't sound like Duke's style to me. Don'tcha love the so-called hula dancers on those shows

Ron, why don't you call Greg and find out the facts?
