“Live at the Pioneer Inn”
1976, Trim #1985
From the Back Cover:
“In 1973 David landed on the shores of Maui and has been performing nitely at the Pioneer Inn in Lahaina since. Listening to David growl and stomp his way through a night at the Pioneer is an experience that shouldn’t be missed. But if you can’t afford the airfare the next best thing to being there is listening to “Live at the Pioneer Inn”

Bill Nash
“Presenting Bill Nash”
DOC #101
From the Back Cover:
“Bill has it all. Talent, good looks, and a personal charm which covers his followers like a golden cloak. It is difficult to imagine these days, but at one point in his life he hated singing. His preacher-father, The Rev. Leslie Nash, would include Bill in the family pulpit singalongs and Bill would spend the entire time crying in protest. And Bill kept on revolting until his Aunt Audra opened a cocktail lounge a few blocks down the street from his father’s church.”

The OTHER Liberace
George Liberace
“Dine and Dance With George Liberace at the Beverly Hilton”
Crown #CLP-5141
Yep, its THE Liberace’s brother, who made a living fooling people into thinking they were going to see his sibling.
I bet he drew the cover art, too.
Kijana

Mahdi Records
1976
From the Back Cover:
“In addition to his musical abilities, Kijana owns the most famous black hair styling shop in the world — ‘Magnificent Brothers’ — in Los Angeles. He also managed to find time to patent his own scented hair spray.”

The hair shop still exists – same address as on the record! No sign of Kijana, though…
