Asian-American Special - Don Ho Tribute (58:59 or 59:59)

Public Radio WorldWide - PRWW.org , 60:00

***** Informational, Intriguing, Thorough

The enlightening interview with Don Ho was successful in revealing the many facets of this timeless entertainer, who was loved by young and old, alike. Knowing that this was the last live interview given before his death, makes it even more special. The interviewer was very thorough starting with the ancestry which revealed that there was not just one race in Hawaii, but various ethnic groups. The sound effects made the listener feel as if he were sitting in the audience while the singing of "Tiny Bubbles" was taking place. This was a very thorough interview which succeeded in being factual as well as entertaining . I enjoyed it very much.
