Are we gonna see any Yma ?? Does her song "Kon-Tiki" provide enough of a Tiki connection? Yeah, it might not be as exotic as some of the stuff on "Voice Of The Xtabay" but her inclusion would validate her place within Tiki culture. It's probably a stretch though. :( (But hey, if she isn't Tiki enough, what was she doing at Hukilau in 2005?) I don't think she gets as much appreciation around here as some of her other Exotica peers. Even 60 years after the fact, she's probably still ahead of her time. The Bigbro seal of approval would go far though. :) Also I'd hate to see "Hawaiiannette" Funicello not pass muster if Don Ho can make the cut. Just my 2 cents. [ Edited by: JOHN-O 2010-01-21 16:54 ] |
