Thanks for the link bigbro! I'm going to spend some serious time looking over those great pages. The "Hawaiian guitar duo" record in my lot is Frank Ferera (with Helen Louise) whose name I saw mentioned in your link. If anyone else has links to Hawaiian music from this era I'd appreciate the opportunity to become more knowledgeable on the topic.
