This review is from: Greetings From Hawaii: The Aloha State (Audio CD)

A fun collection of classic Hawaiian-themed country tunes... Since the slide guitar, one of the staples of the country sound, originally came from Hawaii, it's fitting that so many great country singers have sung of the islands for all these years. Many of these are songs that have appeared elsewhere, but it's kinda fun to have them all together in one place, so you can kick back and dream of the old cattle drives by the ocean's edge.
