I am reposting these cassette recordings I made of Jerry and his trio at the Halekaulani hotel in Waikiki.
Most of the songs are in the C6th tuning, but even if you don't play Hawaiian, there is a lot to be learned.

That's great Chris. Jerry was one of the greatest without doubt.
I was at the Maui fest last April and the the convention after at Waikiki. Jerry still lives on as his students play to that same high standard. Also the respect those boys have for Jerry Byrd stands out.
The more you listen the more you hear. To think it was recorded outside with a cassette recorder among a crowd of people and still sounds fantastic is incredible.
Thanks for re posting.

Thank you so much Chris. Treasures like this are one of the many reasons I love this forum.

"...More Sake`?...Who had the Mai-Tai?"..The sounds of birds chirping...

Everything about these recordings transports me to another place and time.

Aaron, I love the sound of those birds chirping.
It was a perfect early evening with the light fading with the view of the beautiful pacific.
You are welcome, Andy, and I'm glad you shared it with the lunatics on the other side of town.
