The day before yesterday I was going through a list of albums put out by Viking Records and found something I had not heard of - Hawaiian Fire by Tau Moe and His Original Hawaiians. It is dated March 1st 1963, and would most likely have been recorded in New Zealand or Australia - though some heads on here might know better! The Family vocals predominate but some here may still find it to be of interest. I couldn't find much more about it, but looks like the whole thing is available to listen to on YouTube...

Hi Levi, Thanks for the link, I think I have listened to the whole album now. Tau certainly got some nice tone when he took a break. I have been interested in his family band for some years, and never heard that album. As an act, they spanned the entire Hawaiian music era, in all its permutations. Going on local albums of the early 1960s, it seems to me unlikely the album was recorded in NZ or Australia, but I am ready to be pleasantly surprised.
