Release history
This is not to be confused with the later albums of the same name. Crosby recorded four more Hawaiian songs and Dick McIntire's Harmony Hawaiians recorded two more after this album's release, and Decca had still not used "Paradise Isle" and "Aloha Kuu Ipo Aloha", stamped on Decca 3797, in an album yet - so, this album, consisting of twelve songs - along with those eight more unused songs, (a combined total of twenty songs on ten 78 rpm records) was split into two 5-disc (10 song) 78 rpm albums of the same name- Volume One and Volume Two.
