amazing Hawaiian easy listening album Nov 12, 2009
This is easy listening Hawaiian-style, but IK is a class act: am amazing singer, wonderful songs plus the rich cultural experience of hearing the Hawaiian language and lyrics about the Hawaiian experience. The opening song transcends the rest of the album and is in a class by itself, or actually, with a select few other intimate pop songs that involve speaking as well as singing: Van Morrison's "Coney Island" comes to mind on [[ASIN:B0010DJ1II Avalon Sunset]. It's a unique and beautiful song that can really be considered high art in the same way that the Beatles achieved high art with experimental pop songs like "Strawberry Fields." OK, IK is not the Beatles, but he has that same spirit of greatness and no one else can sing like him. The overall mood of this album is contentment and celebration with some sadness thrown in, with the opening song. His remake of "Country Road" by John Denver actually works and the rewritten lyrics that describe Hawaii instead of West Virginia flow perfectly. In short, this is a terrific album and if you like "easy listening" you shouldn't miss it!
Over the rainbow with it's a wonderful world! Nov 07, 2009
This CD includes IZ's version of "Over the Rainbow" WITH "It's a wonderful world" (all in one song, which is awsome!) Also love the other songs!

If you want relaxing music............this is the CD you want. Excellent! Over the rainbow/what a wonderful world is a nice compilation. Throw in the bonus Country Roads-Hawaiian version.............
Well worth it............Enjoy!

Iz as he is commonly called, was a big Hawaiian singer, in both senses of the word. His songs continue after him. They have been heard in many movies and backgrounds. I find them very relaxing when driving and of course love his rendition of "Over the rainbow".
