Dad and Dad-of-Dad playing a slack-key duet back in 1982. Late at night after who knows how many libations (maybe after a gig where Dad ran sound for Dad-of-Dad’s band? not sure). Recording quality is about as bad as it gets, but as a snapshot of a rare moment it’s priceless (Dad must be getting old to be getting sentimental like this). Somewhat rock-n-rolled up version of some slack-key. Dad was (and is still) more into rock-n-roll, but dad-of-dad who’d played surf music and rock-n-roll in the 60’s had long ago moved on to slack-key Hawaiian music.
