This review is from: Best of the Gabby Band 1972-1977 (Audio CD)
All the songs on this album were recorded in the 70s, the majority coming from two albums: "the Gabby Pahinui Hawaiian Band" and "Gabby" (aka the brown album), both great albums on their own. the songs are mixed well, making this collection stand on it's own.
These songs were mostly originally recorded with Gabby and his friends and family with guitars, steel guitar, and bass. Ry Cooder even shows up on a couple cuts playing mandolin. The musicianship is superb. Some of the cuts have strings and synthesizers added, which may or may not distract you, depending on your point of view. For instance, "Moonlight Lady" (sung by Gabby's son Bla) is laced with added strings. It's a great song, but i'd love to hear it in it's original form before the embellishment. This a great Hawaiian album to add to your collection. Or, get any one of Gabby's albums. The two listed above are probably Gabby's best, if you can find them. |
