Party Hulas!
Featuring the Voice of Genoa Keawe
This was recorded in Hawaii in 1965. Genoa was the most well known singer and these were the most popular songs in the islands at the time. All but one of the musicians on the record are women.
Hank Williams eat your heart out!

Jew's Harp
This is from my friend Dean's sweet music blog
---True Panther Sounds---: Magic Alphabet
Apparently baltimore man Dan Higgs (famous for singing in Lungfish and tattooing people) made a whole record of jew's harp jams. That's crazy because, like a pair of humble sticks, the jew's harp is a one-note instrument. Fortunately the dudeman knows how to express that note with heaviness and rapture.
