When the only evidence of existence is a horrendous rip on youtube, I'm not exactly surprised they don't stock Mr. Haangala's sophomore offering:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZWftEpqRWQ

I tried three that jumped to mind and had no luck. But these are exceptionally rare albums because they were big flops in their time.

"Here in the land of Vicotry" - Rex Holman - Only album from actor most well known from Gunsmoke. About the only really standout on this one is 'Red is the apple'.

Eden's Island - eden abhez - Only album from semi-famous recluse who wrote 'Nature Boy' for Nat king cole. Album reportedly sold less than 100 copies.

Gypsy Boots / Upredictable - Related to the Nature boys of which Abhez was a part of. A one off album that I can only find on Archive.org. A novelty album at best.

EDIT : Also thanks for putting me onto Smokey Haangala. That is a groove I can really get behind!
