This was actually a huge seller in Hawaii when it was released and I remember hitting 4 record stores until I found one where it wasn‘t sold out. One even recreated that Lp cover in the display window with the stool, the poi, uke, and an androgynous manikin. Even with the thick pidgin English the record is a gas and is a nice snapshot of Hawaiian culture when people were able to laugh at each other with impunity (It was a local thing.). Sadly, Rap died ala John Belushi and his over dosed body was found on a hiking trail.
Here’s the gate fold of his next album.
