Frank Ferera was a pioneering Hawaiian guitarist and one of the first musicians to record Hawaiian music commercially in America. This Columbia 3746 pressing of "In the Heart of Hawaii" and "The St. Louis Blues" documents early Hawaiian-guitar repertoire, recorded as Hawaiian music was entering the American mainstream in the 1910s and 1920s.
