good mood music,
By COMPUTERJAZZMAN "computerjazzman" (Cliffside Park, New Jersey United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Aloha Hawaii (Audio CD)
There are basically three types of songs on this CD: the straight ahead Hawaiian style songs (the kind that make you think of a Hawaiian Punch commercial), then there are the Martin Denny-ish types of songs, complete with jungle animals in the background, and lastly, there are songs with exotic melodies done in a symphonic style, what you would expect to hear in a 101 Strings album. It's a fun CD to listen to.

Paradise on a Disc,
By Kevin M. Sak (Reno, Nevada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Aloha Hawaii (Audio CD)
This is my absolute favorite Hawaiian CD. For one-hour, you are transported to the South-Seas Paradise of Hawaii. I wish there were more recordings like this available today.

Hey, it's the 101 Strings...,

This is a beautiful CD. Of course, some of the traditional Polynesian chants lose a little without pulsating drums, intoning by the natives and exotic rhythms. (And if you want some local color, get Henry Kapono's Evolution of Poi.) But that aside, this IS the Strings and it's delightful. And yes, there is no "r" in the Hawaiian alphabet, but "Moon over Manakoora" is especially soothing. (Sung by Dorothy Lamour in The Hurricane (1937) - awesome). Just relax and float.

Hawaiian music from Canada,
By Kimo Pauala (Kaneohe, HI, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Aloha Hawaii (Audio CD)
If you are looking to be transported to the South-Seas Paradise of Hawaii for an hour, then please don't buy this CD. I gave this CD the benefit of the doubt when I saw that it was made in Canada, and gave it a spin. Boy, was I disappointed. If you want good Hawaiian music buy IZ, Hawaiian Slack Key Masters, or many others CDs by talented Hawaiians. But don't buy this CD.
