Now is the hour (Maori farewell song *)
The song is written by Maewa Kaihan – Clement Scott – Dorothy Stewart. The song is often mentioned in magazines – books as instrumental track recorded on 27 july 1965 for the movie Paradise Hawaiian style. There are no documents about this recording and the song is probably rejected in the pre-selection. The song was a big hit in 1948 with recordings by: 08-11-47 – Bing Crosby (Decca 24279); 00-11-47 – Eddy Howard (Majestic 1191); 00-11-47 – Grace Fields (London 110); 22-11-47 – Charlie Spivak (RCA 202704); 00-03-48 – Margaret Whiting (Capitol 15024). * The Maori’s originate from New Zealand!! colonel snow
