[ listen ]

Everyone loves The Beatles, even the Hawaiians. some people will declare this a travesty, but the folks at Kapp Records are one step ahead and they've included a message for you on the back of the LP:

It's midnight, and the best-loved songs of the Islands have been played
again and again. Now it's time for The Waikikis to play some of
today's favorites to round out the Luau.

The Waikikis, one of Kapp Records' best-selling groups, make midnight
magic in this, their seventh Kapp album.

Listen to the haunting sound of the Islands, the steel guitar and flute and
low-pitched organ, in such world-wide favorites as Michelle, Yesterday,
Eleanor Rigby, and Girl. There's Hawaiian feeling in every
modern bar of these performances.

You Like Me Too Much, Here, There and Everywhere, and Nowhere Man
are as traditional-sounding as Aloha.

Let the wonder of The Waikikis happen. Let the sound of the Islands
breathe a different life into some of your modern favorites.

Have a midnight Luau every time you play this album.

Anytime you play it.

It's true, it really works--even though I was playing it at 8:15 in the morning.
