Which 1979 disco LP has all 4 tracks referring to the same state?

**KoolChris** · September 17th, 2006, 08:48 PM

This 1979 disco record is composed of 4 tracks, 3 of which bear the state's name in their titles, the 4th clearly referring to it. The title of the LP also refers to part of this state. As a last hint, I may say the label is local too. By the way, the type of state I'm speaking of is one of the United States of America (God bless ya!)...
Any ideas?

I forgot to mention the answer I'm expecting should also and foremost state the title and singer/group of the LP.

And no wild guesses with made-up names, either! For instance, "Boise makin' noise" by "Idaho Joe & the Famous Potatoes" won't do!...

Good luck!!!

Just a clue: the record is on this site. It should come quite easily for those who know the album, but they may be scarce, given that it was never a top-seller.

:roll: Bart Bascone "Disco Island" (Hawaii) ?

Shenkin! Did you really know that, or did you just browse around the record vault?
Well, In any case, Bravo! It seems Remicks was right in fearing you'd get the answer first...

"Disco Island", by Bart Bascone, was released on HaNaIIA records, out of Honolulu.

The 4 tracks are:

Side 1
1. Blue Hawaii Disco / 6:44 / 121 BPM
2. My Hawaii/Hawaii / 9:31 / 132 BPM

Side 2
1. Lucky living in Hawaii / 7:40 / 134 BPM
2. Our Last Aloha / 7:55 / 134 BPM

For those who know Bart Bascone and appreciate his work, he released a first Lp in 1977 that's supposed to be good, and that's rare and sought after, called "Makapuu". I don't know if it's exactly the same style, but I will soon. After a battle on eBay over a copy-which I lost against 5 other people, one of which won it for a little over $100, I bought a signed copy for $15 from a guy in Hawaii. I'll post it in the Record Vault when I recieve it...

Congrats again to Shenkin...
