Yesterday while I was on YouTube capturing the “Rap: Hawaii’s Comic Genius” video, I came across a full video of the 1980s KGMB special “Rap’s Hawaii”. I have had the (crappy transfer from VHS, which itself was a crappy recording off of audio TV rabbit ears reception)… Continue Reading “Rap’s Hawaii video”

Rap: Hawaii’s Comic Genius
Yes, Rap Reiplinger lives on in us. I happened upon this video while checking for humor on YT, apparently a TV presentation that was done in the early 2010s or so (referencing ‘nearly 30 years after his passing). I had to capture it…

Aloha Willie K.
Willie K. passed away last night after a battle with lung cancer. One of Hawaii’s greats. I liked his music, although I didn’t listen to him specifically. He was always definitely in the mix of the Hawaii backdrop music I did listen to. When news broke that he was stage 4, I wanted to go see him live … Continue Reading “Aloha Willie K.”
Noting Kenny Rogers in music memories
Legendary country singer Kenny Rogers dies at 81
I grew up not knowing or realizing there were very distinct genres of music since on Guam we had a very small, select, choice of radio stations. I only remember two…. KUAM and KSTO (K-Stereo). The stations played the different genres at different times … Continue Reading “Noting Kenny Rogers in music memories”
What’s Up/What’s Going On (4 Non-Blondes)
I didn’t have any particular attraction to this song when it first came out as a single in what, 1993? I also don’t recall any extraordinary lingering of the song on the charts, on the playlists, radio, etc., after. But I dunno, it seems like there was some minor resurgence of its popularity thru … Continue Reading “What’s Up/What’s Going On (4 Non-Blondes)”
Alternative Rock version of Wham’s “Careless Whisper”
Nora Camacho Kelly posted on FB about a metal version cover of Wham/George Michael’s hit “Careless Whisper”. I was drawn to find out how a metal version of the soft sounds kind of music by Wham would really come out. Hmmmm, I like it! Wham had a much more softer and gentler sound and feel. Which… Continue Reading “Alternative Rock version of Wham’s “Careless Whisper””
WAR onstage at Blue Note Hawaii
I got Lou tickets for two, as a Christmas present, to Blue Note Hawaii to see WAR perform. So we went this evening. Lina and Jon dropped us off and then picked us up. It was nice, and we enjoyed the music and performance! It was a sold out 6:30pm performance so we were packed. But comfortable. Now we’ve seen … Continue Reading “WAR onstage at Blue Note Hawaii”
Sweet Caroline
This is another one of those songs from childhood memory that, whenever I listen to it, takes me back to those memories locked deep within the recesses of my mind… to a safe and comforting place. A place where life was so innocent, funloving, carefree. The days that I oftentimes long to go back to…… Continue Reading “Sweet Caroline”
