101 Strings Hawaiian Paradise

Pagan Love Song
101 Strings
Hawaiian Paradise
Somerset SF-12800
1961

Out of all the 101s I have collected, this LP is one of Somerset's groovier sets.

This cover was also used on a book-fold two record set that included The Romance Of Hawaii (Alshire 2-117) as the second disc. Alshire took the budget road and used all that inside jacket space to print tiny B&W jacket reproductions of what must have been the entire 101 catalog at the time. While less "exotica" or "space-age" than Hawaiian Paradise, The Romance Of Hawaii is still a decent Atomic Attic period "island" mood set.
