clever pun; steeling/stealing, get it? back in the day, the world had Hawaii fever. presented here are several thoroughly fascinating & enjoyable ethnological forgeries of this unprecedented phenomenon from the 78rpm era. virtually every continent throws down except for Hawaii itself & i strongly doubted any artists included actually hailed from the islands, but it seems i was mistaken. digger dug over at wfmu spotted these folks :) good lookin. 320 mahalos to twicezonked fer de hook-up
