5.0 out of 5 stars This one will carry you away to the Islands., April 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Wooden Boat (Audio CD)

This CD has been in my personal top 10 since I purchased it 3 years ago. I put it on for outdoor barbeques, loung'n by the pool, or just when I want to get away from it all mentally. It literally puts me on a warm Maui beach at sunset. Keola's velvet voice, outstanding lyrics, and slack key guitar are tops. I have purchased other Beamer CD's, but in my opinion this one is clearly his best work. I have given several to friends and they all love it. A true Hawaiian experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Unique Relaxer, July 14, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Wooden Boat (Audio CD)

Keola Beamer's music on Wooden Boat is better than any New Age music available. There is enough variety in the selections to give the listener a change of mood without ever jolting you from the main atmosphere and sense of being, literally, outdoors and rocking in a wooden boat.

5.0 out of 5 stars magical original album, May 20, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Wooden Boat (Audio CD)

This album is an all-time favorite. Beamer's vocals are magical, as is his slack key guitar technique. It's appeal is not just for those who love Hawaiian music; its cross-cultural and cross-generational. My adult son likes it and it's my two-year old's favorite album. What other album can you think of which has such appeal. We keep extra copies of the CD for gifts to special friends. The response is terrific. They end up buying copies for their friends and families. This is definitely a "can't miss" album. Aloha.
