Story behind the song
This is the second song in Ozzie Kotani's excellent book "Guitar Playing Hawaiian Style" and the first song I learned that had both a dominant alternating bass along with a reasonably complex melodic structure. It's a lot of fun to play and is performed here on my Aria NXG-01 electric nylon string. Tuning: Taro Patch (DGGDGB)
