Hawaiian Steel Guitar "Waikiki" by Ross Costa

Love it! I was a lifeguard at Ft. DeRussy in 1978. The pedal steel just takes you back the islands when its played!

Mr. Costa, I was looking on iTunes for Ohta-san and found a beautiful rendition of Waikiki by him. It is on his Hawaiian Suite album. I strongly recommend you (and anyone else reading this) to check it out.

I was stationed at Schofield Barracks from 1980 to 1983. This brings back alot

of good times in the Aloha State. Thanks for posting.

Love the song and bought it about ten years ago to learn. But dang, the photos move too fast to see, I almost get sea-sick. Please redo the video and don't rush everything. I love "vintage" hawaii stuff like this, But I love to enjoy it rather than have it race by. Thanks!

Love the music...the text moves too fast for me to read it all and to see the pics, too. You are one cool cat. Norma

Way to go.A beautiful job.I've loved hawaiian music and the steel guitar since I first heard one played on the old Hawaii Calls radio show and my favorite hawaiian singer was and still is Alfred Apaka.
