Darlene Yoshimoto was a Japanese singer from Honolulu who was a member of an R&B group with Teddy Tanaka but also released a few songs on her own. After Hawaii's statehood in 1959, she looked forward to being a teen sensation but wanted to show maturity so she made music that represented vocal jazz/pop jazz. She released a full album on the Mahalo company and had intentions of becoming a success not only as a singer but also an actress. This unofficial compilation made sometime in the 2010's opens with two songs she did with Tanaka and ends with two songs from the mid-1960's, which lead to ending her singing career. But the full-length album she did in 1962 is quite good and remains unreleased on CD so this is a vinyl rip.
