On December 27, 2013, as I was running along Waikiki Beach, I heard the voice of Kellyboy DeLima along with his expertise on ukulele and guitar and the harmony from his daughter. I stopped running and went to the bar for a beer and to listen to his music. When I first began working in Honolulu in 1998, Kapena, led by Kellyboy, was my favorite group. James Brown may have been the hardest working man in show business, but in Hawaii, Kellyboy has been the busiest and most diverse perfomer for at least two decades. In the hour that I listened, Kelly's songs included popular, reggae, traditional Hawaiian, Fijian, and Tahitian, the last much to the delight of an extended family from Tahiti that were vacationing in Hawaii.When I finished my run, I checked the Discogs website and saw that there were no submissions for Kapena as a group or for Kelly DeLima as a solo artist. I had planned to delay submitting my cassettes until I completed submitting my CDs, LPs, and 45s. However, just as part of my mission for participating in Discogs was to share the music of my favorite musician, Ledward Kaapana and his former groups Hui Ohana and I Kona; I am now in the process of submitting the cassettes that Kapena recorded in the late 1980's and early 1990's, with notations of which were also issued on CD format and which are still in print."Satisfaction Guaranteed" was Kapena's first release. On it, you can hear Kellyboy's Hawaiian influences as he sang Hui Ohana hits " ‘Ūlupalakua," "Kaloaloa," "Sweet Lei Mokihana," "Kalena Kai," and "Pauoa Liko Ka Lehua," but with Kellyboy's own falsetto voice and his virtuosity on the ukulele. With "Kela Mea Wiffa" Kapena paid tribute to Eddie Kamae and the Sons of Hawaii. However, unlike his predecessors, Kapena also branched into reggae with covers of "Stop that Train" and "Red Red Wine."Review of other postings will indicate even greater diversity by Kellyboy DeLima and his group Kapena. "Satisfaction Guaranteed" was also released in CD format, but unfortunately presently is out of print.
