FANTASTIC GOT EM ALL! CHEERS BASIL...oops sorry for shouting

[Basil Henriques]

Although the recent files I posted were for "Educational and Research" purposes, the post has mysteriously disappeared, nonetheless, it is only a continuation of THIS post on the American Steel Guitar Forum.

With what little time I have left on "This Mortal Coil" I intend to broaden my knowledge and also share what I can, to this end I posted the now DELETED post. Note It wasn't deleted on the USA Forum..In fact, the moderator for the relevant section said:-

"Rhythm of the Waves" and "Waikiki is Good Enough For Me" are two comprehensive collections of pre-WWII Hawaiian guitar music originally compiled by Beer Records. Thanks a lot for sharing these, Basil!

I'm downloading the third one (mysteriously named "Basil Henriques.zip") to see what it might contain.

That one contained ALL existing recordings of myself..

Waikikik is Good Enough For Me Download link: [link removed]
I'm still very interested in finding out the players concerned, the instruments, recording technique, amps and other relevant information.
Let me know what you think.
And get into a discusion here regarding the files that you've downloaded for "Analytical and Educational Purposes"



Ray Shakeshaft, a member here, has helped a little with the "Hawaiian Music 100" another now defunct compilation.

Please let me know about the steel player(S) on the Hawaiian Music 100

The a rough translation of the words under the disc numbers are as follows.

1 Hula songs
2 Hawaiian mood
3 Sound of Steel Guitar (Tracks played by 1-10 Boss Miyazaki & Coney Islanders, 11-20 Setsuo Oohashi & Honey Islanders)
4 Style of slack key guitar (Hawaiian slack key players such as Ray Kane, Keora Beemer Ledward Ka'apana)
5 Popular style of Hawaii and sun and beach (Elvis Presley, Perry Como etc.)

I hope that helps Basil.

PS. No I don't speak/read Japanese but I know a uke playing girl who does.

"Regarding the Hawaiian Music 100 collection, I THINK I hear Buckie Shirakata on Disc No.3.. and Ernest Tavares or Alvin McBurney on Disc N0.2"

The steel players on the Elvis tracks have been Identified as Alvino Rey and Freddie Tavares, BUT the Perry Como tracks MAY be Jerry Byrd or who ?

Here is Rhythm of the Waves.zip
