Herb Ohta is one of the great ukulele players. I have had this recording on LP for quite some time. And now it is such a joy to see it released on CD; and to see the material treated so well. This album is more jazzy than strickly Hapa Haole. A very nice listen. This CD reissue is first rate, as are all of the Aloha Smile series. The original LP cover artwork has been faithfully recreated and the recording is very clean. Yuki Yamauchi and the team who are releasing the Aloha Smile reissues deserves a round of applause. This CD is only one of several that have recently seen the light of day once again. I only hope that more of these Hawaiian and Hapa Haole classics are released on CD. Keep up the great work Aloha Smile!

Description in Japanese
ウクレレ・アイル [初回限定生産] / オータサン
[アロハ・スマイル: ハワイアン・ミュージック 紙ジャケコレクション] ユニバーサルが保有する豊富な音源から、ハワイの柔らかな風が感じられる心地良い楽曲が収録されたアルバム全10タイトルを紙ジャケット仕様&最新リマスター採用でリリース!! 日本企画(監修: 山内雄喜&大江田信)。 空前のウクレレ・ブームの頂点に立つ、ハワイ生まれの日系二世、「ウクレレの神様」ハーバート・オオタこと通称オータサンのメジャー・デビュー・アルバム。エド・サリヴァン・ショーに出演後に発表された。当時としてはウクレレだけのインスト・アルバムは大変珍しいもので、オータサンのテクニックをコピーしようと、このアルバムを繰り返し聴いた人も多かったが、結局どう弾いているのかが良くわからなかったという。
