Hawaiian Music Collection, then

Stevo's Hawaiian Music Guide - Featured CD: Gabby Pahinui - Gabby Gabby Pahinui - Gabby (Brown Album) Rating: Reviewed May 2001 by Stevo - See how our 'Coconut' rating system works below. Music Style - Slack Key If you do not have any Gabby Pahinui in your Hawaiian Music Collection, then you are missingout on one of the most admired and talented Hawaiian Artists of all time. Gabby is commonly referred to as the best slack key guitar player of all time. When you put on thisclassic CD from 1972, you will quickly understand why. Unlike other sites that review CD's, ourreviews tend to focus on CD's that everyone should have as part of their collection. Gabby certainly falls into this category. In fact, I believe that most Hawaiians willagree with me when I say every Gabby CD (including this one) is a classic and you will wantto pick up several. Gabby is more commonly known as the Brown Album . Its hard for me to say that itis my favorite Gabby Pahinui CD, because I love all the Gabby CD's and albums that I own.However, the Brown Album and the Gabby Pahinui Hawaiian Band Vol 1 certainlyrank as 2 of my most listened to CD's. The Brown Album contains many of Gabby's most recognized mele's. One of Gabby'smost popular songs is Hi'ilawe . This CD starts with an early rendition of this song recorded by Gabby in 1947 and ends with a version recorded in 1972. The 1947 versionwas Gabby's first recording at age 26. Hi'ilawe has to be one of most cherished Hawaiian mele's of all time. It picks me up whenever I hearthe incredible guitar strumming. Gabby's voice seems to capture the spirit of Hawaii. Even today when I hear Gabby's son, Cyril, play thismele I get chills. Cyril sounds a lot like his Dad. Wow, I am already on my forth paragraph and I have only described one song. You can see Ihave a real passion for Gabby's music. Some of the other classics on this CD include Luau Hula , He'eia , Lei Nani , and Ka Moa'e and several others that were recorded withthe legendary 'Atta' Isaacs and 'Joe Gang' Kapahu. You'll love the conversations between themat the end of Ka Moa'e . Gabby's sons Cyril, Bla, Philip, and Martin are also featuredon the CD. All share the incredible music talent of their father and have many recordings of theirown that are wonderful. One thing that you will quickly notice when you put on this CD is how it lifts your spirits.Gabby Pahinui slack key is spirited and fun. You can't help being in a great mood when you listento this CD. The way the Gabby, Atta, Joe Gang, and Gabby's sons blend their instrumentsinto perfect harmony is beyond description. It has to be experienced. Sadly, Gabby passed away in 1980, but through his CD's his music lives on. If you want to know more about Gabby, I would recommend Jonathon Wong's Gabby Pahinui Tribute website. The CD contains the following: Hi'ilawe-1947/Luau Hula Lihue He'eia Ka Makani Ka 'Ili Aloha Lei Ohu Royal Hawaiian Hotel - A wonderful rendition of this classic Keawaiki Leahi Wai O Ke Aniani Ka'ahumanu Lei Nani Lei No Ka'iulani Ka Moa'e Hula O Makee Hame Pila Hi'ilawe-1972/Aloha O'e This is a 5 coconut CD, a 'must' addition to your Hawaiian Music collection. This CDis available from one of the retailerson our Sources of Tapes & CD's page. How our rating system works 5 Coconuts - These CD's are must have CD's that every Hawaiian Musicfan should have in their collection. They are classics that you will play over and over for years. The quality of the music is excellent. 4 Coconuts - These CD's are highly recommended. Although they are not necessarily classics, most Hawaiian Music Fans will really enjoy them. 3 Coconuts - These are CD's that some people will love, but others will not care for as much. Overall, though, they contain good quality music and are a nice addition to your collection. 2 Coconuts - These are good CD's, but won't appeal to everyone. 1 Coconut - These CD's would only appeal to a small percentage of people...like the artist's auntie ;-) Because a large percentage of our e-mail are requests for CD recommendations,our reviews will typically focus on CD's ranked 4 and 5 coconuts, with a few 3 coconut CD's sprinkled in.

Create the Ultimate Bath The Ultimate Bath Create your own ultimate bath to soak away your stress and rejuvenate your body, mind and spirit right at home! Feel as though you've just spent an evening at the spa. Soothe your mind, nourish your soul, stimulate your senses and escape the ordinary. Let your cares drift away. Transforming your own bath is easier than you think. Here are some of our favorite suggestions for you. Choose a favorite CD to listen to while you soak. If you use a portable player, be sure it is placed well away from your tub for your own safety. Jazz or other soothing instrumental music is relaxing and wonderful. For something a bit more tropical, try some acoustic Hawaiian slack key guitar, better known as "Ki ho 'alu" here in Hawaii. A few candles or small oil lamps set in a safe location will help create your ambiance, as soft lighting has the ability to set the mood. The soft light from a few candles can really be inviting. I really enjoy a warm bath when the glow from a full moon filters in through the curtains. Aroma has the energy to carry you away, so be sure to add your favorite blend of scented bath salts or bath crystals as you fill your tub. This will soften your bath water and your skin as you soak. If you prefer a more fragrant bath, add just a bit more of your salts or oil to the tub. Just be sure that you don't over do it. Most natural bath and body products are formulated with sensitive skin in mind, but may be irritating if used to excess. A scented candle with a complimentary fragrance can be a nice touch also. Now don't forget to include a glass of wine or sparkling soda to sip while you relax, maybe add some chilled tropical fruit in the summer time. During winter you can always enjoy an exotic coffee and some fine chocolates. Mmmm..... Close the door and take this well earned time to relax! A soft warm shower after you bathe will rinse off any organic botanicals from the bath salts, and a warmed fluffy towel is great to use as you pat dry. You'll emerge a totally new woman, with all of your senses fully nourished. I've learned to cherish the moments like these. Now, if only the water wouldn't get cold! Aloha!

Hawaiian shirts based on

Different Styles of Hawaiian Shirts Different Types of Hawaiian Shirts There are different types of Hawaiian shirts based on the style or layout of the design. The most common ones are the basic all-over print and the scenic print. But there are variations within these types well as several other styles. We'll also cover some of the terminology used for Hawaiian shirts. All of our shirts are made in Hawaii with great care and with special attention to the details like matched pockets. Basic All-Over Print Hawaiian shirts: These shirts are probably the most common shirts. They are characterized by a repeating print that appears all over the fabric in a uniform manner as illustrated to the left. These shirts can be worn tucked in our out. These shirts typically do not match up perfectly to create a seamless image at the buttons. Scenic Print Hawaiian shirts: The scenic shirts are similar to the all-over print shirts in that the details in the print repeat in a uniform matter. The only difference is that these shirts contain scenery rather than just a simple repeating image of a flower or leaf. For some people, the scenic prints conjure up feelings of freedom and being on vacation. These shirts typically do not match up perfectly to create a seamless image at the buttons. Panel Hawaiian shirts: Some shirts have prints that are laid out in vertical panels, usually flowers and/or leaves. Like the basic all-over prints and the scenic prints, the panel designs have repeating patterns, but they repeat as you go from one side of the shirt to the other, rather than all over the shirt. These shirts typically do not match up perfectly to create a seamless image at the buttons. Border Hawaiian shirts: Shirts that have a design going across the shirt are called border Hawaiian shirts. Most of these shirts have a design in them that repeat every 10-12 inches as you go from one side of the shirt to the other. If the design happens to go across the bottom of the shirt, they may be called a Bottom Design Hawaiian shirt . The shirt illustrated at left is a border shirt that also happens to be a bottom print. Border Hawaiian shirts are meant to be worn untucked. Matched Prints: Some border or bottom print Hawaiian shirts have a seamless image at the buttons. The shirt to the left, unlike the one right above it, is perfectly matched at the buttons creating a seamless image as you go across the shirt. These shirt are harder to make and require greater skill and attention to detail. Many border print shirts do not match at the buttons like this one does. Engineered Hawaiian shirts: Engineered Hawaiian shirts have a seamless image from one side of the shirt to the other. The image usually repeats every 18 inches, which is greater than that of most border print shirts. The shirts also have a seamless image that is uninterrupted at the buttons. These shirts are usually the priciest shirts for any given quality of fabric because it requires the most fabric to manufacture. Engineered Hawaiian shirts are meant to be worn untucked to show off the entire design. Matched Pocket: The better Hawaiian shirts have a matched pocket. That means the pocket exactly matches the print on the shirt making it nearly invisible. In the picture to the left, you can see that the palm tree leaves on the pocket precisely line up with the leaves on the shirt. The result is a seamless image created by the pocket on the shirt. Creating matched pockets requires the use of more fabric and more precise cutting and sewing. All of our Hawaiian shirts come with a matched pocket. Return to Hawaiian Shirts Home Questions?

Gary French, Scot, Jim and Captain Rusty land a boat record 835 lbs. Blue Marlin. More... A special breed of angler flocks to this nook of the world, where fishing loreis born. Hawaii sport fishing is home to legendary tales of hour-long fights,reel-spooling runs, and an angry marlin majestically soaring above the water toshake off a lure. This is Hawaii fishing, reel peeling, line screaming, pin you tothe gunwale action. Marlin Fishing Hawaii Hawaii Marlin fishing is a team sport. Blue Marlin are at the top of the ocean's food chain,they fear nothing. Selecting an experienced crew is crucial. If you are fishingin Oahu, Hawaii and want to land a big Blue Marlin, you need the experienced well-seasonedcrew of the Hawaii fishing charter, Kuuloa Kai . Skipjack Tuna abound in the waters off Haleiwa, Hawaii because the sea mounts attractand keep them. They aren't alone: Blue Marlin, Striped Marlin, and Sailfish all loveto feast on Skipjack Tuna. The waters are teeming with the hunters and their prey.When the Billfish schools arrive in Hawaiian waters to fatten up during their pelagicmigrations, Oahu big game sport fishing is pole-busting. Deep Sea Fishing Oahu, Blue Water Hawaii Fishing Mar 30, 2003 . Mike Corell lands a 669 lbs Blue Marlin More... Pelagic game fish, such as Blue Marlin (Au), Wahoo (ono), Dolphin Fish (Mahimahi) Yellowfin Tuna (Ahi)and Skipjack Tuna (Aku)tend to prefer deep blue water, ranging from the surface to about 1,000fathoms. Hence the term Blue Water Fishing. The rule of thumb is the deeper the water the biggerthe fish. Yet, monster fish have been caught just out side the harbor, so its just a rule ofthumb. You never know when or where a big fish will strike. The Kuuloa Kai team is prepared tohook up and boat a big fish at all times. Deep Sea Fishing Waikiki, Deep Sea Fishing Honolulu Hawaii deep sea fishingcenters around floaters and Fish Aggregation Devices (FAD). "Floaters",the term fishermen call flotsam, act as nurseries for many pelagic species.Where there is food you will find big predators. FADs act as virtual floaters creatingthis food chain. Deep sea fishing Hawaii concentrates around FADs. Due to heavy shippingtraffic, FADs are not positioned as densely on the Honolulu side of the island of Oahu.Deep sea fishing Honolulu means long travel times. The beauty of the windward side is thatwe get floaters blown to us first and have several FADs to choose from. Another rule of thumb:the choppier the water the better the bite. This makes Haleiwa the idealfishing venue. You fish where the fish are. June 2002 . Captain Rusty with 131 lbs. Yellowfin Tuna, Hanapa'a Jackpot Fishing Tournament. Yellowfin Tuna Fishing Hawaii Oahu, Hawaii's world-famous North Shore may be a surfer's paradise. But its best-kept secretis that it is also one of Hawaii's hottest big game fishing locations. Massive schoolsof big Yellowfin Tuna visit Haleiwa, Hawaii's coast every year. Because of this annual migration,it is home to Haleiwa, Hawaii's North Shore Hanapa'a Jackpot Fishing Tournament . Of course, Hawaii is famous for Ahi, the Yellowfin Tuna. Hooking one of these is blue waterbig game fishing at its best. Yellowfin Tuna, pound for pound, are some of the hardestfighters ever built. Just imagine, the Hawaiian State record was 356 pounds of muscle.Indeed, Yellowfin Tuna are true heavy weights bursting with brute strength. They are a toughfighting fish with a fast recovery rate. They will mix deep dives with long, fast runs totest both angler and tackle. This is Hawaii fishing at its best. Oct 2, 2002 . David Scotka boats a 108 lbs. Striped Marlin with Scot Spencer at gaff. (l-r) Scot Spencer, Kyke Scotka, Rob Kapp, and David Scotka. More... Hawaii Fishing for Mahi and Ono Close to the top of the ocean's food chain are Mahimahi, also known as Dolphin Fish andOno, called Wahoo elsewhere. These predators are great fun to catch. When Haleiwa, Hawaii'sMahimahi season is in full swing, multiple hookups are common. Hawaii fishing is about pureadrenaline pumping action. Hawaii Deep Sea Fishing with Light Tackle Let's not forget those plentiful Skipjack Tuna. Although they are the feeders for all thebig game fish, catching 5 to 20 pounders on light tackle is a kick in the pants. These babiesfight like torpedos.
