Extensive and Eclectic and we hear them as is with scratches, crackles and pops.
Being a radio and mobile DJ for a decade and a half, I collected several hundred albums. I had nothing on my dad who owned more than 500 (33 1/3) LPs and over 100 78 RPMs at the time of his death in December 2019. I had no idea he had so many. We found them spread all over the house when we prepared for the estate sale. I went through every one and categorized them on an app called Discogs. I thought so many were unique, I decided to start a podcast called Spinning My Dad’s Vinyl. Each episode will feature an album. I’ll tell stories about the family listening to these albums and I’ll give other info about the album and the time it was released.

Beautiful Hawaiian Music
This is episode eleventeen hundred three thousand and forty-three of Spinning My Dad’s Vinyl.
I might as well say anything I want anymore, because according to the liner notes on this album, the featured artist played all 32 instruments and sings like Bing Crosby.
While the singer’s voice does bear a remarkable resemblance to der Bingle, I had two Artificial Intelligence platforms arguing about if anything about Jack La Delle is real.
While I’ll of course cover that story in a while, there is no mistaking the beauty of the music on this record, which I can only prove - through photos and videos for myself - the beauty of the island nation it represents.
So get ready to hang loose, hang ten, then bid a sweet aloha in Volume 243: Hi-Fi Hawaii.
