Arthur Lyman was most closely associated with Hawaii. Many artists travel to exotic locations outside their comfort zone to make a live album with local flavor.
Arthur Lyman went to The Port of Los Angeles.
Yes that's right. The Port of Los Angeles. Liner notes by Sam Yorty - the nasal former mayor of Los Angeles.
In reality it's a compilation album probably given to those who worked on - or got kickbacks from - the building of the port.
The Stores. The Chores. The Mainstream. The Oddball. The Serious. The Goofy. The Awesome. The Not So Awesome. 45's. 33's. The 'What Were They Thinking.' Stories from the Store. Observations from my armchair.
