You Tube – week of January 25, 2009
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95H8chtjl7A – Uncle Eddie Kamae dem at Honey’s playing “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” and a wee keiki dancing. This is pure joy!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bd82d5pbKJo&feature=channel_page – Ohta-san and Herb Jr. playing Hi`ilawe. Wow!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QewvyIc-cMI&feature=channel_page – Don’t know who da heck, but a fantastic couples hula to Pauoa Liko Ka Lehua.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukji6dgx9RQ – Pastor Wayne Cordeiro (nrother of our TP braddah MPI) singing Iesu no ke Kahuhipa. Also if you are so incldinged, here is a list of other videos featuring Pastor Wayne, if you would like to hear him share his mana`o. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_type=&search_query=wayne+cordeiro&aq=f
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iUU2Ki52yE – Jesse Tinsley was in the hapa-haole mood this week with Little Brown Gal & Little Grass Shack. Now Jesse has enough stuff for about a 5 disc CD collection boxed set.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqHdX3x2KLQ&feature=channel_page = Paul Certo playing “Touch a Name on the Wall”. I know it is not Hawaiian. It is much more than that. I am the one who goaded him into playing that for his second You Tube video because I have seen how this song affects people. He did this song for the ho`ike at guitar week at Augusta Heritage workshop and men in the audience had tears in their eyes. For those who served, in Viet Nam expecially, this song has a profound effect. This is chicken skin. I have heard him play this so many, many times and it just about makes me cry everytime I hear it, thinking about what my husband, who was really just a boy at the time, had to go through while crawling through the jungles of Viet Nam.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGeJDBGgZec – Makana playing “Pu`uanahulu” so beautifully as he and Puni Patrick were practicing for the So. California slack key festival. Her hula was very, very nice. If you look on her page on You Tube, you will find other videos you may be interested in: http://www.youtube.com/user/808wikio808 .
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Sm2S8dtx04 – And here is Makana from same show, posted by a different person – Ku`u Lei Awapuhi.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKnAZmJNukI&feature=channel_page – E Pili Mai – plain, simple. And oh so sweet.
*****aoogah aoogah ding ding ding – FIND OF THE WEEK http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zeOs9dg9cY - Zack (slackkey808) playing Maori Brown Eyes – both guitar AND `ukulele. Not only does he made some darn swell music, but he is one gadgetological genius, too. (Note da wires doing up to his ears). Swell job Zack! I do mean REALLY, REALLY swell. PM Jr. said next time he would do da `ukulele, but where was he when Zack recorded???? Probably off somewhere running around with some guy named Cyril and some guy named Kunia.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tY2yMLV7IA – Jazz Guitar Lessons – Learn how to play “Misty” for me.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=568mYm8Py0Q – A visual lesson in aloha
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4bZfxcA7AY – Sunday Manoa, featuring Robert Cazimero singing Pua Lilia.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPWFQ6on_7Q Pua Lilia by Keith and Kameron Omizo. The `ukulele is top notch. Adunno who da heck, but very nice one song!

Dukie - those are kind words.
But, I remembah when we were there in May, you played Moonlight Lady and you get da bass going, too. Maybe you should add that to your repertoyer.
We are working on a dulcimer Hawaiian tune to put on You Tube. Dulcimer is very, very quiet, though. So I had Paul sit it on a wood table and play it that way and seems to make louder. I neva like to see a hillbilly instrument lidat get amplified.
And, boy-oh-boy, you ain't kiddin about Zack. Zack - you got the talent, my friend. Wow! See Duke - no worry about the next generation. They are going to save the music, keep it going.
You just have to don't force it on the younger generation. They will come to it on their own because it is real and it has aloha and mana. |

| Thanks for all the kind words Aunty and Uncle. It's nice to know that Peter Jr. and I make the previous generation proud. In fact I just told Uncle Duke that I'm finally getting into C6 Maunaloa tuning, and I have to say I can't wait to see what him and Uncle Ozzie have to say about that tuning, it's very, VERY mellow compared to taropatch in my opinion and a nice change of pace for me. |

It's pretty well known in my old time circles out West that sitting a dulcimer on a table amplifies it. I've heard (Jean Ritchie, maybe) someone tell of a dulcimer providing music for a dance in Appalachia somewhere long ago with the instrument on a table so it could be heard over the foot noise. At McCabe's back in the '60's we made a "dulci-less", just the neck and fretboard. It was almost inaudible until we put it on a table (actually the checkout counter in the store), and then we heard it loud and clear. Mark Nelson probably knows about this and other artifacts (i.e., a dulcimer neck/fretboard with a pickup). |

Here is another I stumbled over. Check out this guy's falsetto. Amazing!!!!! Jacob says he just likes to sing. Not a professional at all.
