Playlist - August 2, 2013

"Aloha Kaua`i" brings you the music of Hawai`i -- from yesterday, today, and tomorrow -- culling from my personal library of hundreds of vinyl albums, audio cassettes and CDs. For news and information about the music and musicians of Hawai`i, just "Like" Aloha Kauai on Facebook.

These broadcasts are "live" every Thursday and Friday 7-9am (HST) on Kaua`i, at 90.9FM (north shore), 92.7FM (Moloa`a and Anahola), 91.9FM island-wide. "Aloha Kaua`i" also streams live online. Requests can be phoned to me when I'm on-air, at 826-7771 or toll free to 866-275-1112.
