It's an EP with many standards like "Hawaiian Hospitality","The Hukilau Song","Mai Poina","Cockeyed Mayor of Kaunakakai","Yellow Ginger Lei","Blue Lei" That's what I recall off the top of my head. It's got a great female vocal by a gal who I can find nothing on. Well, actually, it lists her by a single name and there are too many people out there with that name to know who she is! I chose a couple off this record for the music on the Hukilau site. There are (well, in my experience) too few records with vocals, and of those, many are not that great. It's as though after Alfred Apaka, everyone gave up. Haunani sounds like a man. Other men sound like women. It's just really rare to find a record with all the songs sung and all great. This is it. There are a few others I have found, but very few.
