"Slack Key Christmas"

~ November 27, 2007 at 23:34 (Views: 31 )

Charles Michael Brotman and his band of Slack Key musicians have created a great little Christmas music CD for those who don't care for singers. (Palm Records PALM4024)

1. Winter Wonderland (James "Kimo" West)
2. Santa Claus is Coming to Town (Dwight Tokumoto)
3. O Holy Night (Jeff Peterson)
4. Jingle Bells (Randy Lorenzo)
5. Away in a Manger (Dwight Tokumoto)
6. Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer (Wailau Ryder)
7. I'll Be Home for Christmas (Sonny Lim)
8. Silver Bells (Wailau Ryder)
9. Little Drummer Boy (Ben Kaili)
10. The First Noel (Charles Michael Brotman)
11. Mele Kalikimaka (Randy Lorenzo)
12. White Christmas (Sonny Lim)

I prefer to hear a singer's version of the song, but these are exceptional musicians. This CD should soothe the most rattled Christmas shopper.

"A Hawaiian Christmas" (Amy Hanaiali'i)

~ November 27, 2007 at 23:19 (Views: 38 )

Here's a notable music CD release for Christmas 2007. Amy Hanaiali'i, vocals; Chino Montero, Guitar and 'Ukulele; Jeff Peterson, Guitar and 'Ukulele; Stepen Jones, Upright Bass; Bobby Ingano, Steel Guitar. It adds up to great evening music with familiar Christmas music, complete with Hawaiian lyrics. (Tiki Man Records TMCD 8602) It goes like this:

1. Hamau E Na Kanaka ("Hark! The Herald Angels Sing")
2. Betelehema Iki E ("O Little Town of Bethelehem")
3. Po La'i E ("Silent Night")
4. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
5. Pomaika'i Wale Ko Ke Ao ("Joy to the World")
6. Ho'onani Kakou Ia Ia ("Adeste Fidelis," aka "Oh Come All Ye Faithful")
7. Ka Po La'ela'e Ka Hikina Mai ("It Came Upon A Midnight Clear")
8. Little Drummer Boy/Do You Hear What I Hear?
9. Po Hemolele ("O Holy Night")
10. White Christmas
11. Mele Kalikimaka
12. Mary Did You Know?
13. Ke Akua Mana E ("How Great Thou Art")
14. Ave Maria

It's a great little collection, nearly matched by the instrumental-only "Slack Key Christmas" music CD release.
