Kona came out


Nuff said


Would think the commercial servers TV stations use would be better by now, but we still get commercials on local TV in Spanish. In the past we just thought they didn’t know what else to play in our geographic area. Still happens, mostly on weekends


Sunset obscured by whatever weather is out there that we didn’t get. There’s clouds look like a dinosaur


Hawaii has its own oligarch problems. Oprah has 2100 acres on Maui, Larry Ellison Owns Lanai, Steve Case has 5700 acres on Kauai, Mark Zuckerberg has 1450 acres on Kauai, Marc Benioff has 600 acres on HI Island. Michael Dell onws the 4 Seasons Hualaai and a huge estate. Many more have estates.


Very windy in Kona. There’s a storm out there, just not here.


Going back and re watching Luke Cage. I last watched it years ago on Netflix. I have the DVD set too


Found this in a drawer from many years ago. It’s back on my key chain


The ignorance of youth. Riding a powered scooter on a busy street, looking down at her phone mounted on the handlebar wearing no protection. Maybe she’s lucky, but the combination of gravity and pavement are very unforgiving


This is the earliest available recored Hawaiian song; Aloha `Oe by Nani Alapai and Henry Clark released on Columbia records in 1911. An earlier recording in 1898 by Berliner Gramophone on wax cylinders is lost. Most Hawaiian music was recorded on the continent, there were 100s of records by 1920.


Found in the bottom of a drawer. Week over 10 years since had Verizon on a work phone.


This is Apple’s broken suggestions for an all Hawaiian playlist.


I really want a recordng of this. When I’m in Honolulu next, I’m going to stop by KGU radio to see if they have a copy.


Frank Ferera, Born in Honolulu: June 12, 1885 of Portuguese ancestry. Of all Hawaiian recordings made between 1915 and 1930, it is said that Frank Ferera appeared on at least a 1/4 of them. Some of the estimated 2,000 discs he cut remain available on Hawaiian CD compilations to this day. Amazing


I’ve been listening to almost entirely Hawaiian music. Apple Music’s algorithm doesn’t recognize that and pushes everything else. Could be that most of my music didn’t come from Apple but from albums, CDs and music archives.


This playlist is so old school I feel like a your kid listening to it.

My senior citizen arts and crafts project today. For Saturday


A seller gave me a great deal on this rare 1955 mini 6 song disc from Ray Kinney.


Recently stumbled upon this album. The Makapu’u Sand Band with Iaukea Bright. I met him when he had a show on KCCN. His moniker was “The Kapahulu Common Mango”. Down home island music. music.apple.com/us/album/…
