Here is one SWINGING LP if you ever come across it. The guy rocks out on saxophone & is accompanied by a HOT steel guitar to "Hawaiian War Chant," "Song of India," "My Little Grass Shack," "Sheik of Araby," etc. Great jacket as well. Beautiful artwork from a rare Alfred Apaka recording...made before the Hawaiian Village was a Hilton. These guys, The Big Ben Hawaiian Band, an English group under the direction of well-noted Norrie Parramor, produced a series of about a dozen LPs of then-current pop tunes redone in a groovy "Hawaiian" style. Love all the LPs..."Una Paloma Blanca," "Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes," Volare," "Spanish Harlem," "Cecilia, You're Breaking My Heart," "Good Morning Starshine," etc...they covered them all eventually.
