About the Artist
Moe Keale is Hawaiian...pure Hawaiian. He numbers among a rare few that share this distinction, with a cherished heritage that intimately binds him to the land.

Although many people will remember Moe as one of the featured actors on the long-running television show "Hawaii 5-0", it is for his music that he will be best known; for songs such as those featured on "South Sea Island Magic".

Product Description
Originally recorded in 1980, Moe's unique vocal and 'ukulele stylings are joined on this recording by the talents of The Emersons, Ken on steel guitar and Phil on several vintage guitars; Roland Cazimero and Terry Paul on bass and Robert Cazimero lending his voice on background vocals. The combination of these musicians and their instruments create the perfect musical platform on which to share their deep affection for island music.

Moe Keale is the Magic of Hawaii.......2001-02-18

South Sea Island Magic will transport you to the Islands. Moe's romantic voice will make you as high as "Scotch and Soda," one of the offerings of this album. We boarded our ship in Honolulu and joined our o'hana for drinks. Moe Keale walked into the lounge and sat with his wife and friends. I leaned across to my husband and said, "That's Moe Keale, you should hear him play ukelele." About that time, Moe leaned over and picked up his uke and started playing with a group of ladies sitting at a nearby table. I was thrilled, another young lady got up and began to hula. Moe moved back to his table and then got up and walked over to our table. He asked if he could sit down. My husband said, "Please do." Moe sat, he talked with us a little while and then asked, "Do you mind if I ask about your face?" (Because of a brain clot I have some facial paralysis) He then said, " You must have been a very beautiful woman, because you are still a very beautiful woman." I've been dancing to his album ever since especially to "Hale'iwa Hula," one of my favorites on this album. South Sea Island Magic, you'll hear it in his voice. Listen with someone you love, or be careful, you might fall in love. This album really has South Sea Island Magic!
