One of my all time favorite instrumentals. Anyone know the genesis of this tune? Meaning of the title? I recognize some of the same licks that are in Justin's Lullaby, only played harder and faster here. I once saw a video with Andy Wang playing along with Hapa on stage somewhere back east. Crazy good stuff. |

I read this from a newspaper in Kauai when HAPA was performing in 2016. The music of folk music icon Gabby Pahiniui drew Flanagan to Hawaii in 1979. He moved to Maui and was influenced by his neighbor, Jimmy Kaopuiki.
“Jimmy and his wife Ardell became my extended family,” he said. “The song on the first Hapa CD was called ‘Kaopuiki Aloha’ because that was first first aloha I experienced family wise in Hawaii.”
Pretty cool tribute, don't you think? |
