Editorial Reviews

Ho'oluana is one of the most popular recordings by the Makaha Sons of Ni'ihau. This album won the Album of the Year, Traditional Hawaiian Abum and the Engineering Award. The Sons were named the Group of the Year, and 'Pua 'Ala Aumoe' was named best Hawaiian song. The much loved 'Mehameha / White Sandy Beach' makes this a classic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Close your eyes and you are there., November 19, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Ho'oluana (Audio CD)
For all Hawaiians who are far from home and the malihini who want to bring some of Hawaii into their home. When I am not in Hawaii the Makaha Sons remind me of my Hawaiian heritage. This is probably one of their best CD's, and Israel is still singing with them. The music and harmony is so good. My husband and I agree that if you missed a concert with them, this is the next best thing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply the best!, January 23, 2004
This review is from: Ho'oluana (Audio CD)
After living in Hawaii for 8 years and listening to Hawaiian music every day during that time, I can honestly say that the Makaha Sons of Ni'Ihau are my favorite and this is the greatest album! I am now living in the desert in Arizona and all I have to do is listen to this music to be taken back to the sunny shores of Oahu. I recommend this to anyone who loves the islands. You won't be disappointed! Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great, Beautiful, Refreshing, Inspiring!!, July 14, 1999
This review is from: Ho'oluana (Audio CD)
Ho'oluana is my favorite CD of the Makaha Sons! I'm not native Hawaiian but through this CD I've grown to love the music, tradition, and people. I enjoy and appreciate the traditional lyrics, smooth harmonizing, and instrumental mix. My favorite is Mehameha/White Sandy Beach that is so melancholy and beautiful. I've heard the Makaha Sons twice in concert and have met members of the group. They, like their music, are GREAT!! This is a CD that music lovers everywhere must have in their personal library!
