<click cover to purchase>

From the original "Bell Records of Hawaii"
catalog of recordings dating back to 1944 and originally released on 78
rpm. On this 18 song compilation, we have brought together some of the
most famous of the "Bell Records" artists with the most
popular and famous versions of their songs. The original version of
Gabby Pahinui’s signature song "Hi’ilawe". John K. Almeida
and Pua Almeida with the Club Pago Pago Orchestra, giving you the
rousing Big Band sound of postwar Honolulu. "Waikiki
Chickadee", a fabulous little ditty performed by George Tautu
Archer and his Pagans. An extraordinary recording, written and performed
by Andy Cummings, "Waikiki" will make you yearn for "that
magic beside the sea". Great Hawaiian songs performed in
English and Hawaiian. SONG LIST
