Sam Koki is the steel guitarist and ANYTHING by him is lovely and classy, and "William Kealoha" (perhaps a pseudonym for Koki) recorded several LPs with Forum. This one is best, though. Several upbeat cha-cha type numbers yet not "in your face." Some 70's tiki & leisure wear action! A definite rarity..."Ka Elekas Present A Love Story of Hawaii." A very typical Holiday Inn sort of lounge band ..I think this photo was taken at the Reef. Decades ago when I picked up this LP, I thought it was totally dreadful & unlistenable...but I've grown rather fond of so-so lounge acts & I kinda dig it now!
