Aloha! A local friend recently sent me an article on George Kainapau from 07/05/44 and that made me realize that I have not been in contact with you in a number of years, right around the time you were beginning nupepa translations. I was looking for information on the first location recording sessions held c. May 1905 in Honolulu but you had nothing for me. Mme. Alapai, both Ellis Brothers and Mr. H. Keaweamahi all appeared on the records made at those recording sessions (so that alone dates the sessions to before May 30, 1905) and all show up here in your translations but still nothing on Hawaiian recordings (or a search term I can use to access any such in your blog’s database). I did gather some data I didn’t previously have, so mahalo much for that! If you can be of further help in my researches into Hawaiian audio recording in Hawaii please get in touch. My best to you, Thomas Malcolm Rockwell (author of the discography “Hawaiian Guitar & Steel Guitar Records 1891-1960”), Maui, Hawaii
