I stumbled upon this by accident. If you had suggested before, I listen to 22 tracks of any music from the Hawaiian Isles I'd have thanked you kindly and backed away. How wrong could I have been?! This CD is just the finest, dreamiest CD I have listened to in an age. The melodious tones just waft over you like a welcome breeze on a hot summer's night. Pop this magical disc in your CD player, press the repeat button, turn down the lights grab a long drink and you have the cheapest travel you could ever take. You will be magically transported to the Pacific Isles and back without leaving your hammock (or your living room). One thing that was also quite revelationary was the insight I gained into the Hawaiin peoples. Having listened to this CD a couple of hunded times I can maybe appreciate their zen-like approach to life. Let's hope this leads to a deeper understanding of an truly fascinating culture of which this is but one part - and no Elvis in sight!
