Honolulu Rock-A-Rolla----Ethel Nakada 1958

Post by Roger Shackelton »

Honolulu Rock-A-Rolla is a swinging tune, sung by Japanese singer Ethel Nakada, recorded in Honolulu in 1958. Jules Ah See does a nice intro & takes an instrumental break at o:58. Jules playing seems pretty HOT for the 1950s. 8)

Sounds like the C-sharp minor tuning.
