There's a TON of old budget label Crown stuff that they've (I don't really know WHO or HOW) put on Itunes for purchase. I think EVERYTHING from the Polynesians is on there as well as most of the "Luke Leilani" sessions. Oddly, they show the record labels on many as artwork and they have different titles and artists....sometimes listed as simply "Hawaiian Music" by "Studio Group", etc. Even Alex Keack's rare "For Surfer's Only" aka "Surfer's Paradise" is listed as "Hawaii Goes Latin" by "studio artist." It's tripy..just do a search for "Hawaii" on Itunes. I wonder if those are some type of original pressing, as I've never seen them released that way.
