Take a look at Yvonne Elliman. She is a lovely talented Hawaiian lady but she is not tiki. She was a backup singer in Eric Clapton's band which give her lots of credibility to many people but she is not tiki. Well, OK, she was in the band when Mr. Clapton was not at the height of his artistic output but that still was a great job to have but she is still not tiki. She was Mary in Jesus Christ Superstar, a very tacky musical which I enjoyed in a contradictory ironic way but she is still not tiki. She came from Hawaii, she is not tiki but we can still like and respect her. Well, maybe the phase of her career where she was working with tbe Bee Gees...don't know.
