Re: Kamehameha March Louise & Ferera
Thanks for posting this one. I have this cylinder and really like it--George gave it to me with a box of old cylinders when I was getting into the hobby. It was kind of neat as a way to hear this music new.
To me Hawaiian music always was terrible because I'd grown up hearing it on my grandma's old Ken Griffin organ 45s from the 1950s. They weren't particularly interesting to me. But the 1910s records impress me, because of the gut-string sound of the guitars and the more dynamic playing. They are relaxed but not languid, purposeful but not hurrying, easygoing but not lazy.
Waltzes, fox-trots, it doesn't matter--these deserve a place in collections, and I don't mean the wastebasket.
