Aloha fellows check this out,
a very nice collection of electric tunes by King Benny.
My first impression is he used C#min tuning.
Who have ever thought Benny could sound so smooth ! I'm very impressed, tons of nice licks, just shows again how good and unique he really was !

Wow, that's awesome. A couple of tracks, including the 1st one, Hawaiian Capers, are on the Yazoo CD but played on acoustic. Interesting to hear the different touch he brings to the electric instrument. Benny was indeed a King.

Thanks for the heads up.

I wonder where this has been hiding. Just when I thought it had all been discovered, this gem turns up. Some very sweet sounds here. Thanks for the link.
