Cumquat Recordings available online

Post by Guy Cundell »

Some years ago, I bought Wally Pfeiffer's collection of Cumquat CDs and donated them to my friends at the music archive at the Center for Popular Music at MTSU, Murfreesboro, Tenn. The wonderful archivists and director there have decided to make them available for listening but not downloading via a Dropbox link that appears below. I think this may be the entire collection, organized by album and track by the archivists.

I am so glad that the preservation work of fellow Australian Bruce Clarke can be now widely accessed.

That's incredibly generous of you (and MTSU)! Thanks for sharing these tracks.

This collection is incredibly important for people who haven't had access to these Hawaiian songs before; it truly brings a great treasure to a wider audience. Making this available for listening is a fantastic way to preserve and share the unique artistry and history within these recordings. Mahalo for sharing

Aloha. I have a question about additional releases from Cumquat. For example, "CQCD - 2826. 2007. Sol Ho'opi'i* – Electric Sol Vol. 4" isn't on the list. There are also other numbers missing in the series. The collection is, of course, amazing and extensive and i love it. I'm just wondering if there are any other releases that aren't included here, and if anyone happens to have a complete list of all the releases?
