Music of Hawaii (Decca album)
''Music of Hawaii'' is a compilation album containing five 78rpm records of Hawaiian music issued by Decca Records.
==Background==
Historically, the term "album" was applied to a collection of various items housed in a book format. In musical usage the word was used for collections of short pieces of printed music from the early 19th century. Later, collections of related 78rpm records were bundled in book-like albums (one side of a 78 rpm record could hold only about 3.5 minutes of sound). The only way an “album” could be put together was to sell three or four 78s in a bound set of sheathes. These sets, known as folios were increasingly popular. Whilst they had originally been neutral – blank albums into which the distributor could insert whatever 78s he liked – the idea of using a theme to link the records in the folio was catching on. By the late 1930s, this trend had developed to the point where artists were going into studios to record six or eight titles with a folio set in mind. This in effect was the birth of the concept album, although it would not be until LPs became commonplace that the phrase gained any currency.
The first album issued by Decca, probably in 1938, was ''Moussorgsky Songs'' by ''Vladimir Rosing'', on catalouge number A-1.
Another early concept album was ''Music of Hawaii''〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://yktc.us/MusicRack/78/List%20Label/Decca/list%20Decca78%20Sets.html )〕 and eight songs were recorded for this in 1938. Possibly to boost its commercial appeal, two Hawaiian songs by Bing Crosby, which had been recorded two years earlier, were added to the album.
