Notes:

The 1959 album "Hawaii Calls" by Harry Hoomele and His Island Orchestra is a delightful collection of Hawaiian-themed tracks that transport listeners to the tropical islands. Released by Grand Award Records, the album features a mix of traditional Hawaiian songs and contemporary compositions, all performed with a lush, orchestral arrangement. Tracks like "The Hawaiian Wedding Song (Ke Kali Nei Au)" and "Na Ali'I" showcase the rich cultural heritage of Hawaii, while songs like "Hula Hula Rock" and "Beyond The Reef" add a modern twist with their upbeat rhythms and catchy melodies.

Interestingly, the name "Harry Hoomele and His Island Orchestra" is a pseudonym used by an unidentified group of musicians. The album was produced by Enoch Light and recorded by Robert Fine, with art direction by Casper Pinsker Jr. and painting by Jerry Smith. Despite the fictional nature of the band's name, the music itself is authentic and evokes the spirit of Hawaii. The album's cover art and liner notes contribute to the exotic and escapist appeal that was popular in the 1950s, making it a cherished piece for fans of exotica and Hawaiian music.
