• This reissue features Hackett as the only horn with brilliant backing of McKenna, Bob Carter was of Hawaiian descent (his real last name was Kahakalau), hence the title of one of the compositions from this album. Carter would later convince Hackett to record an entire album dedicated to mixing Hawaiian tunes and styles with jazz : ‘Hawaii Swings’ (1959).
