All of their albums are well conceived and attractively presented by Art Director, Jody Brotman. Visit their website to see their entire on-line catalog. www.palmrecords.com Aloha JOE SLACK KEY GUITAR Volume 2 - Palm Records A compilation of ten island artists The slack key guitar's roots can be traced back to the early days of the Hawaiian Cowboys. (the Paniolo). In the past ten years, this musical form has moved from the "backyard" to concert halls around the world. The slack key guitar is a solo instrument played with the virtuosity of any concert performance. There are many "slack key festivals" in Hawaii that showcase a variety of artists during one program, but concert promoters around the world can't afford to present ten island performers on one show. That's where SLACK KEY GUITAR V2 from Palm Records comes in handy. It's like having front-row seats at an island Slack Key Festival. Fans of slack key turn to the many instructional books and videos which teach the concept of tuning the guitar and explain the basics of playing, but to really learn, you need to listen to a wide variety of styles. Producer Charles Brotman corralled ten of Hawaii's slack key artisans to present a cross section of musical styles. These range from traditional to more contemporary treatments. Sonny Lim, Ken Emerson, Keoki Kahumoku and Charles Brotman do a pair of tunes each and Bryan Kessler, Randy Lorenzo, Jeff Peterson, Charlie Recaido, John Cruz and John Keawe each favor us with a selection. I'm glad Big Island company, Palm Records, decided that the world NEEDS another album of guitar music because Slack Key Guitar Volume 2 is a perfect learning tool and a wonderful addition to your Slack Key collection. Remember, you can listen and pretend you're attending a concert featuring ten of Hawaii's best. If you would like to know more...visit PALM RECORDS website...tell them I sent you...Aloha JOE JOHN KAMEAALOHA ALMEIDA 1897- 1985 - Hana Ola Records This masterwork is the latest offering from Hawaiian music historian Harry B. Soria, Jr. and Hana Ola Records. The album spotlights the musical genius of John K. Almeida by presenting 22 performances and 21 original compositions. The well-written liner notes present an extensive "family history" and chronicle the professional career of "Hawaii's Blind Musician." John Almeida picked up the ukulele at age 4 and during his 87 years on Earth, he mastered that instrument, the mandolin, guitar, steel guitar, violin, banjo, bass, saxophone, piano and composed over 200 Hawaiian language compositions. The song list is familiar and impressive - Lei Hinahina, Holoholo Ka'a, Noho Paipai, Kanaka Waiwai, Kiss Me Love, and on, and on..... Mahalo to Harry B. Soria and Hana Ola Records for putting together this musical time capsule which preserves an era that should never be forgotten. Available at CORD INTERNATIONAL - www.booklineshawaii.com a nd fine music stores, everywhere! Aloha JOE
