Hawaiian Holiday
"When searching for Exotica records, one will inevitably stumble across a sublimely exotic piece of cover art, become excited, then realize, with crushing disappointment... it's a Hawaiian record. That blonde gal on the cover, standing by the volcano, humping a stone parrot? Just a ruse to trick you into buying another set of the same twelve fucking Hawaiian songs, usually played in precise, unimaginative arrangements. ... This is where Johnny Pineapple and His Orchestra separate from the pack. Most of the selections on this record aren't exactly deep cuts or obscurios, but fire and brimstone are they played well. ..."
So let's have a Hawaiian Holiday with Johnny Pineapple and His Orchestra. Shared by Flash Strap.

We love this album! It gets PLENTY of spin here at the ol' compound.
Thanks for the hat tip, old boy! Nice it is indeed to have some extra traffic pitter-pattering around the old blogstead...
