The Polynesians
1959 – Polynesia (Stereo)
Crown Records – CST 169
Notes: The Directional Sound label reissued this album in 1962 as Polynesian Paradise/Percussion. The original Crown Records release (this one) has better audio quality with an extra 4db of dynamic range. And it also gives credits to the recording artists. The Directional Sound version sounds like they duplicated the original master tape through an echo chamber.
