Customer Reviews:

This CD is an instant trip to the islands of Hawaii........1999-11-08

Calming simplicity, beauty, and stirring melodies are the theme on this CD featuring the revival of the slack gey guitar-style instrumentals. It is a quick antidote for techology and stress overload on the mainland.

The CD includes tradional songs such as HAWAIIAN REVERIE from the 1930's to those composed by Doug and Sandy McMater, such as BETTY'S MELE.

Just as one never tires of a sunset, the pounding surf, or a baby's smile, the Hanalei Sunset CD creates a welcome escape to another place, another time, at each playing.

Some of the most beautiful, soothing music we've ever heard........1999-10-29

We first heard Doug & Sandy's slack key guitar music live, when we visited Kauai several years ago. We found it so calm and soothing, and because they were playing while the sun set over Hanalei Bay, it seemed like heaven to be enveloped in such beauty! Hearing this music brought such an inner tranquility and sense of peace, it seemed to penetrate our souls. We've returned several times to Hanalei Bay and usually have been privileged to hear Doug & Sandy play, always with the same feeling of being bathed in beauty.

Their "Hanalei Sunset" CD/album does the next best thing because it brings us their beautiful Hawaiian music with the soothing sounds of Hanalei Bay surf, and transports us back (helped by the album photos) to that lovely island and the true spirit of aloha we've found there. Thank you, Doug & Sandy, for your music and this special album--we love it and are giving copies to all our friends and relatives! It even appeals to our young grandson, so we recommend it for all children because it conveys such tranquility and beauty. Goodness knows we all need more of that!

Their music is the greatest stress management tool ever........1999-10-20

This CD plays in our office all the time. It is so soothing and reminds us of the beautiful and best times in Hawaii.

Album Description

200 years ago in Hawaii... there were no plantations, no ranches, no missionaries, no visitor industry, no hotels, no radio, no multitracking, no singing (only chanting), no overdubbing, no lyrics to engage the talking head, no record company formulas... no entertainment industry...

There were a few Hawaiian men and women who were the original recipients of a "new" instrument called a guitar. Sitting in the peaceful splendor of their environment, they created a unique art form called ki ho'alu -- Hawaiian slack key guitar. They were inspired by simple, natural wonders... the little crabs skittering to and fro on the beach, the moon shimmering off the deep seas, the mist swirling around the mountains, the honu (sea turtles) riding the giant rolling waves, the soft whispering tradewinds, the ua lani pili (rains from the near heavens), ...

Island of Peace, the newest release by Doug & Sandy McMaster, is ki ho'alu in this real old style. Nothing more, nothing less. Enhanced to include a FREE video, screensaver, photo gallery, and more when you put the CD in your computer. The video is a little taste of the magical sunsets by Hanalei Bay on the mystical island of Kauai.

One of our favorite tracks is the title song, Island of Peace, which was a gift from a baby humpback whale that was born in the middle of Hanalei Bay on February 18, 2002 as we and our sunset slack key 'ohana watched on and serenaded the sun to bed. The name Island of Peace was the gift of a visiting monk.
