  1. In addition to this set of recordings, there are two other groups...one, a small combo, the other, a large orchestra... total of 3 different studio groups that were hashed & rehashed, combined in different combinations using different group & song title names. These are all on the budget labels that were sold in drugstores & grocery stores. I collect Hawaiian/Exotica records and have about 100 of these budget label recordings in my collection 7 STILL run across a "new" one now & again.

  2. Thanks for your comment John! I think I only noticed this "batch" because several tracks on this album(s) are so distinctive. Otherwise I may not have noted the duplication.
