From the back cover: "Variety Unlimited" is the way Glenn and Bill describe their act, and with good reason. Each one sings well by himself and together their voices blend so well, at times they sound like one.

2 Sides Of Tommy Johnson

From the back cover: The exotic setting of a Polynesian paradise - with the exquisite flavor of authentic Polynesian dishes - is the background for the unique artistry of Tommy Johnson. Tommy Johnson and The Ma-Kiki Club are synonymous with one another. One just doesn't think of one without the other. Tommy came to the Ma-Kiki at the Holiday Inn in Huntington, W. Va., for a 30 day engagement in May of 1969. He's still playing there and his fans and the owners hope that it's a permanent arrangement.
