[@AZCobraman]

His harmonics blow my mind, what touch and control!

[@MrPatdeeee]

In my 89 yrs on this earth I will say that, except for Dick McEntire and Jerry Byrd, I have NEVER heard any play so sweet and smooth as Jeff Au Hoy on the steel guitar; when it comes to Hawaiian music. He also has an awesome singing talent. It is extremely listenable.

[@Dark_Ages_Crusader]

I am so impressed as well.......I grew up and live in Hawaii and have never seen or heard anything this good.

[@MrPatdeeee]

@@Dark_Ages_Crusader AMEN!

[@derekmoore6265]

Rudi Wairata was the best steel guitarist that ever lived.I must say that I loved Dick McIntyre playing.Beautiful player.Jerry good too but not my favourite by a long shot.

[@radiant1ful]

Jeff SHOULD be the Jake Shimabukuro of the steel guitar. He's got it all....incredible tonality, smooth voice, pretty looks...

[@znovosad555]

Real hawaiian music is definitely a favorite of mine. I just love tropical music.

[@markwitz]

A true modern day classic is Jeff Au Hoy on the steel guitar.

[@charlesgonterman9714]

Jeff,'I wish my Dad was here to enjoy your beautiful voice and your excellent steel playing. He played in a band years ago and this is what he played the most. I play lap steel too and I can sure learn form you. I've played this video over and over again. Outstanding music. Thank you very much.

[@eolden7749]

Those old Rickenbacker's sound so beautiful. Of course Mr Au Hoy is amazing.

[@bumpysfriend]

Finally I find another with the awesome feeling/tone/touch/soul, everything!...to the max!....this is how you express on this expressive instrument, thanks Jeff, love it!...

[@vangarry]

I agree, Jeff Au Hoy is the Jake Shimabukuro of the steel guitar. Does he have to play Queen songs to get noticed?

[@NeilAvon]

Thanks for a video of high enough quality to match the excellence of these musicians, Fantastic set. I didn't realize Jeff sings so well. Nice harmony from Ed Punua. Always a pleasure to hear Gerald Ross play anything. Did GR do a set on steel? I'd enjoy that too. There should be more of both Jeff and Gerald on the net.

[@iaj7517]

Very talented steel guitar player. Great harmonies and intonation!

[@olgaromo4903]

Me encanta !!!! Tocas y cantas hermoso no me canso de oírte !!!! Saludos te Amo ❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@dennydl]

As one old enough to have appreciated the shortwave broadcasts of Hawaii Calls, I am excited to be able to awaken those old, wonderful feelings with this marvelous artist! Mahalo!

[@mayaadobe]

Very well said

[@dougtubeful]

[@maetoft-sharp7016]

My father was from Denmark, but learned Hawaiian steel from the 30’s on. He looked like a European Elvis Presley- this style of playing reminds me so much oh him-love it!

[@lempengsagu]

Mahalo for the beautiful songs.......greating from Holland

[@johnjenkins2315]

Not sure how I came across this concert, Bob but I’m very pleased I have. Music of this gene has a magical effect on me. I remember when I was a boy my father used to have records of Hawaii music (I’m in my mid seventies now) and to come across this very talented musician is a great joy to me. Greetings from New Zealand 🇳🇿.

[@maetoft-sharp7016]

The tremolo, slanting the bar for harmonics & the chimes-transforms one to paradise-Thank you🌺🌈💕

[@badavisjr1]

Awesome. Sometimes I wonder about people, namely the 14 people who gave a “thumbs down” to this performance...🙄

[@midrangesupport]

damn, he is good!

[@trafalgar1938]

Brilliant musician, lovely voice, beautiful language. What more can you ask for?

[@waynehorsburgh8616]

Fantastic music from Jeff, what a great talent. I have always loved Hawaiian music. A fan from Australia. Aloha.

[@donaldstofel4115]

The new mistro no doubt. Looking at what he does with his thumb and little finger makes me wonder what is going on down under there. That is a.lot of music for just 6 strings and 2 hands.

[@andyfrost8656]

Beautiful playing. Jeffs phrasing and tone is outstanding.

[@riodosa40]

Jeff is mighty good on that fry pan! From 1948 to 1959 my father had me playing Hawaiian style steel music. That’s your love when you spend a long period on the Island in the Navy during WWII.

[@MrMultitool]

When I was a young child and we would be coming home from church the local radio station .played the weeks obituaries with Jerry Byrd playing in the background. I thought when people died they must go to Hawaii. They never mentioned it in Sunday School though.

[@sweeteonglim3546]

Love the Hawaiian Guitar. We had a couple of Hawaiian Bands in Penang, Malaysia, in the 50s. Love your Rendition.

[@anthonymaggiore4268]

This is all so beautiful. Can anyone tell me the name of the song at 35:32?

[@richardclements9810]

The grace of his hands with the sound is an extension of his soul. A natrual expression from a master. Aum.

[@kenniththomas2167]

How wonderful. I'm lucky that I've had the pleasure of visiting the Hawaiian Islands twice in my life from my homeland of Wales UK .a sixteen hour flight. Always loved the steel guitar , because of my late parents playing the music in our house as a child ..

[@kimho4255]

Very good voice and play steel guitar, I do not understand but his voice so warm. Thanks. I like this videos.

[@siewweechin6476]

Jeff Au Hoy is amazing! Been so honored to see him wave slide on one of his vintage Ebay boards like a true master as well! Just brings you back to a kinder, gentler time.....

[@grantallison-young5652]

Sensational - Jeff is always a delight to watch - love the story about how he bought the frypan on ebay

[@richardgonzales344]

In my opinion he speaks the Hawaiian music without an accent ! All the other steel players Emmons, Reece, Hartley all have their niche but no one in my opinion plays Hawaiian style to his perfection. Jerry Byrd was the best in his day but Jeff has raised the bar just like athletics.I am going on 90 yrs and started with a Hawaiian teacher which made me very cognizant of the technique the Hawaiian style requires. My opinion Jeff you are today's BEST !

[@akizorayamaumi9365]

beautiful and so relaxing...

[@elizabethkoke8310]

Some of the most beautiful music and sining, remindsme of when I was young. And we listened to music live from the islands every week , during the late 40s and 50s. Reminds of my beautiful aunt, who was Hawaiian. We loved her so much, one hour very favorite ants. If we were lucky, we could get her to do the hula for us. Such a beautiful dance very graceful. I miss those days and miss my Hawiian cousins, some I never got to see . Would love to get to see all of them before I die. Louise Lesie, Simon

Who can’t hear the Texas Swing in this masterful music? American musicians copy- catted this beautiful sound and called it country or Western Swing or whatever. We owe our musical souls to Hawaiians!!! LOVE the first tune!

Qual o nome da música aos 4.55 minutos. Adoro mais não sei o nome, a interpretação e simplesmente fantastica!!

[@icaroblues]

Boa tarde camarada. Acho que a maioria do pessoal aqui não entende o português. Tambem nao consegui identificar a musica. Ele comenta que é de autoria do Bobby Ingano. Ele fala né nome, mas eu não entendi. Algo curto que soou como "illy". Pode ser um nome havaiano. Este cara é fora do comum

[@fabioam5386]

The name is "Kaula Ili"

Does anyone know what brand and model of lap steel he's playing? I know he said it was a C6, and I saw 6 strings on it. Just curious what the brand is. I've played Chet Atkins fingerstyle guitar for over 35 years, and want to start learning lap steel.

[@taylorswan8587]

Irishrover68 it’s a Rickenbacker ‘frying pan’. The Rick frying pan was actually the first solid body electric guitar ever produced.

[@marinenut68]

@@taylorswan8587, much appreciated! I've seem s few videos with this guitar, but never knew what brand it was. He's playing a real classic.

[@jasonbabila6006]

Excellent kanaka music. 👀🤙🏽

[@mico6181]

I missed this hawaiian music, Jeff Hoy brings it to life.

[@iwasabombardier]

Hi Bob, wonderful playing of his lapsteel, is he using C6 tuning or some other key.

[@iwasabombardier]

Hi again, I am 76 years of age and a litle deaf and replaying this video I now realise that he did say C6. Thanks for the prompt!! I was given an old German Hofner lapsteel a few months ago, which I am restoring to playing condition. I just love the sound of Hawaiian music!!

what steel guitar brand is

[@terencemartell6931]

Rickenbacker A22 "frying pan"

[@MrPatdeeee]

It was around 1940 when it was built. Earlier, it was THE first guitar to have a pickup. And Adolph Rickenbacher received the patent on pickups.
