To follow are some interesting images of $1.00 albums I scored this weekend at an antique shop's yearly clearance sale here in Seattle: This seems like a real score, almost mint condition and the music is pretty cool, straight up mid 20th century Hawaiian stylee. I just heard Paul Page for the first time at Tiki Oasis III. I heard a funny spoken word piece, and checked in with the DJ. I believe the album he had was "Luau Music". My wife (puamana) has an image saved of "The Reef Is Calling". If anyone has these, and would like to trade CDRs, please let me know. Anymore info on him would be greatly appreciated. These guys sound kind of mod Hawaiian. The vocals are in a native island language. "Kuuipo" and "Poolside Music" are both on Waikiki Records. They're both great. I thought the "Poolside Music" image was appropriate to share after Tiki Oasis III. I haven't heard the "South Pacific" yet, but the cover is too cool. And Polynesian Percussion sounds pretty darn kooky, guitars, native vocals, and clickety clack percussion. I'd love to hear of any other obscure LPs to look for (either music or graphics, but especially music). Thanks [ Edited by: Selector Lopaka on 2003-05-18 22:00 ]
