Bill Ali’iloa Lincon’s self-titled LP on Tradewinds Records was released in 1963, some 16 years before Territorial Airwaves launched on the radio.
On previous Territorial Airwaves shows, we’ve concentrated on the body of work that Bill recorded for Bell Records on 78rpm discs.
In the 1950s, he began appearing on Waikiki Records 78rpm and 45rpm discs.
But this 1963 Tradewinds disc was actually his debut solo stereo LP album, and marked yet another comeback in his illustrious career.
Bill Ali’iloa Lincon played ukulele and sang lead,
Annie Hu played guitar and sang support,
Lena’ala Cypriano played the bass and sang support,
& Eddie Pang played the electric steel guitar.
So we’ll dive into our records archives to hear this classic recording.
Today, 50 plus years later, we’ll share this music.
