Steel man on "Girl in the yellow holoku"??

Post by Mitch Drumm »

There is an old "Hawaii Calls" LP on Capitol from the late 1950s, containing a knockout midtempo instrumental called "the girl in the yellow holoku".

who dat on steel? i am guessing it is the impeccable Jules Ah See, or perhaps Barney Isaacs. Whoever, it is to die for, probably my favorite single Hawaiian steel recording.

Lastly: who else has recorded that song?
