My wife Norma Jean and I will be in Hawaii for 10 days starting on the 2nd of Dec. If anyone knows of any Steel players there, please post on the forum. I used to have friends in Hawaii but they've passed on. Pua Alameida and Billy Hue Lyn. I spent a lot of time with Billy in the 60's. Aloha, Al |

Try to find Ken Emerson playing if you can. He's great on the National Tricone and other assorted guitars. His album "Slack and Steel" is a wonderful collection of original and old Hawaiian steel guitar classics.

Hello Albert - 'Just returned from Nashville, and heading for the Miss. Gulf Coast. I met several steel players when there--mostly at the Luau gigs; dont remember their names, but they were all easy to converse with; I didnt realize Billy had passed; he was an original and fine player of Hawaiian music. Good luck, HJ |
