I have asked a few people but no one has any info so I will ask some of our resident experts if they can shed some light on it. I have been unable to locate any information on the lp or musicians

A few months ago I found a few Hawaiian lps at a local thrift. One of them was a Rene Paulo-Here Is Happiness lp. I already have it but I love the cover and when I went to look at the condition of the vinyl I discovered a different lp within.
