5.0 out of 5 stars Spectacular Hawaiian Musical Experience!, December 10, 2003

By	Na Pali "Na Pali" (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews

This album is truly awesome. Young Hawaiian Slack Key Master Makana transports you all over Hawaii with this great selection of historic Hawaiian songs smoothly mixed in with Makana originals. Makana is an awesome Hawaiian Musician, Singer & Songwriter and all three are impressively displayed on this new album.

Kick back, relax and let Makana sail you through Hawaii on a truly delightful Hawaiian Musical experience, you won't be dissapointed. I have listened to this album dozens of times and find myself wanting to listen again and again. When it's raining here in Seattle I pop this album in and let it take me back to Hawaii.....

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent young Hawaiian slack key guitarrist, November 25, 2004

By	D. Garcia "world music lover" (Santa Cruz, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I recently saw Makana play at the Kilahuea theater in Kauai and was blown away by his guitar playing and his energetic style. I had purchased this CD a day earlier and wanted to see with my own eyes that the guy could really play this traditional but crisp collection of Hawaiian songs live. I was not dissapointed. He is part of a new breed of Hawaiian young players that is injecting new energy into slack key playing. This is my second favorite Hawaiian CD of all time, next to Iz's Facing Future. An amazing performer, and a nice singer to boot.

Makana is one of Hawaii's finest guitarists.
He focusses on slack-key playing on this album.
and he has a beautiful voice.
