What's Spinning

Crossposting from the 2025 February Spin Challenge thread; another unplayed LP:


Teresa Bright - Blue Skies

1739058669820.png

She was a Honolulu-born ukulele and jazz vocalist whose music was popular in both Hawaii and Japan back in the 80s. This release is an archival material of vocal jazz recorded in '05. She passed away early September last year, just before I was in Hawaii for vacation.
I found this at Aloha Got Soul in Honolulu on a part of the co-owner's recommendation for a cool $20. First time playing this since acquiring. So, not only does this remind me of picturesque Hawaiian skies like the beautiful oil-painted cover would show, but also provides me the comfort of having extended family from my father's side over on the islands; only a 5hr flight away.
Rest in peace, Teresa Bright.
