Description: Hawaiian Instrumental Quintet - Aloha Oe / One, Two,Three, Four. Regal - G 8508 Shellac, 10" 78rpm UK c1924 I rarely make remarks about the recorded music I'm selling, but...If you're looking for 1950s style, grass-skirts and coconuts, happy-clappy tourist stuff, this isn't for you. When Queen Lydia Liliuokalani was forced to abdicate in 1898, upon Hawaii being annexed to the USA, she wrote "Aloha Oe". The Quintet plays this as originally intended- a sad, poignant lament.

(M) Mint- In new condition, known to have never been played. (NM or M-) Near Mint- In as-new condition. With near perfect sound quality and no obvious signs that it may have been played. (EX or VG+) Excellent / Very Good Plus- May show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches. There may be minor crackle on the run-in/out grooves, but the overall sound quality should be excellent. (VG) Very Good- May have noticeable hiss resulting from groove wear, and/or surface noise resulting from marks and scratches. This will affect the sound quality, but will not overpower the music. It will still be a very good playable copy. (G or G+) Good / Good plus- May have scratches, marks and visible groove wear. Can be played through without sticking or skipping, but it may have significant surface noise and/or background hiss. (F, P, R) Fair, Poor or Relic- In poor condition. Only listed because they are very old, very rare, or suitable for framing. Please see item description for exact details.
