this came up on the exotica mailing list:
quote:
Annette Funicello
"Hawaiianette"
(Buena Vista Records)
...
Any educated guesses on who the
session players might have been? Plenty of steel guitar....

| All Music Guide says it was on the Disney label. Also they spell the title with 2 n's: "Hawaiiannette". No other info, though. Not even a song list. [This message was edited by Bobby Lee on 27 April 2001 at 12:18 PM.] |

Click picture for the song list.
Also, this page shows the complete album on a CD compilation (volume 1), and some of the songs are remixed on this compilation from Disney.
Apparently the Buena Vista release is Japanese. This page sells it on CD for $36.99, but I noticed that the page hasn't been updated in over a year.
Apparently there's also a release of it on the Pony Canyon label from 1992, but I only found [url=http://www.cybercd.de/detail.htm?id=3ae9ca6e5793980|nr=815196]one obscure reference[/url] to it, and that's in German.

Bobby, you're in luck! There's a much better buy on e-bay Italia (see the link below)

But as to who is actually playing the steel, that's a good question. I doubt if Disney had a "staff steel man". I think this was a little too early (1960) for Buddy Merrill, but Noel Boggs is a possibility...he did stuff in Hollywood, too. Also might have been Roy Smeck, since he did a lot of traveling and playing in this time period. Sooner or later...we'll find out!
