Product Description

Amazon.com essential recording

Along with Sol Hoopii, King Bennie Nawahi was the undisputed master of Hawaiian steel guitar music in the 1920s and '30s. His lyrical playing and virtuosic solos were as jazzy as the guitar playing of Django Reinhardt and his repertoire ranged from island tunes to Tin Pan Alley to the blues. It's hard to imagine that the same guy performing the slow and sentimental "Mauna Kea" could churn out a rollicking number like "Dinah" (here with the Red Devils), but Nawahi possessed a versatility and proficiency that few instrumentalists could match (in the '20s, he was even crowned "King of the Ukulele" for his numerous wins in stateside uke contests). On Charles B. Smith's "My Little A-1 Brownie," he juggles steel guitar, mandolin, standard guitar, and harmonica solos on the same tune (Benny Goodman did the clarinet solo). Nawahi is a legendary figure in Hawaiian music history, and liner notes by Robert Armstrong (whose Cheap Suit Serenaders would cover the Hawaiian's "Singing in the Bathtub" five decades after its release) tell the entire story. A great disc. --Jason Verlinde

5.0 out of 5 stars 最高です。, 2005/11/12
いわゆる一般的にイメージされる「ハワイアン」というより、戦前のジャズ、ウエスタンスイング、ブルース、等のファンに是非聴いてほしい1枚です。SPファンも必聴です。1920~30年代の録音です。ジャズ創世記にハワイアンが見事に関わりあっている事が判明します。「ディキシージャズ」はもちろん、「キャッツ&ザフィドル」「スピリッツオブザリズム」なんか好きな方は「涼しいスイング」として入りやすいかと思います。個人的には、戦前ハワイアンミュージックにはまっていたので久々に驚愕した1枚です。かっこいいです。ロカビリーファンで進歩が欲しい人にも。
