\"\"<\/a>This is one of many, many records I picked up at thrift stores over the years. Back in 2004 I ripped it to the computer, at least the first side. Recently I was making new mixes for the Hideaway and included their “Hasegawa General Store” and every time it comes around, I crank it up. I just love it. Something about the sounds of forks hitting plates in the background just endears it to me.<\/p>\n

George passed away in 2000<\/a>. I am not sure when this was released. Some evidence on the web indicates 1992, but I am thinking earlier.<\/p>\n

So, enjoy the piano bar in Hawaii, done as well as anyone. Live from the Maui Hilton Hotel on the beach at Kaanapali in the Lokelani Room.<\/p>\n
