If it is dated correctly, this may be the earliest Hawaiian music video there is. The first "talkie", motion picture with sound also came out in 1927. Amazing quality considering when it was filmed.

haunts me sleeping and waking."

These videos are wonderful! They give us a look into the pre-electric past. So much has changed, but so much is still there.
