From the back cover: Charles Mauu who is featured with the "Royal Polynesians" in most of these songs, is an actual Tahitian Chief, administrator and judge of 1300 of his people. As with most Polynesians, music and singing have been part of his background from childhood, and his participation in these recordings, made during a visit to America, helps give them complete authenticity. His words of salutation mark the opening and close of the album.
