THIS made my day! I had not heard Aunty Genoa sing "Kuwili" since an old 49th State Records 45rpm. I know what I am going to request next time I see her! The only thing you can't see in this video is that glint in her eye when she sings about something as kolohe as prostitution.
And what a supergroup with her - her `ohana. Gary on bass and Eric on guitar. And although the camera rarely panned to him, I could swear that Eric was playing slack key (or, at least, some very good fingerpicking).
Wow.
