"Unforgettable 1920-30: Songs From Hawai'i is one of those CDs that is so full of atmosphere from a time and a place that is sadly long gone; sepia-toned images of the waves crashing on Waikiki Beach come to mind with some of the wonderful songs from early this century on the aloha isles. The sound quality isn't the best on all tracks, but then neither was the recording equipment in those days. If you are looking to paint the picture of a century or so ago in paradise, then this is your background music. Put the CD in the player, mix yourself a mai tai, sit back and relax........"
