Album Description
On this, Na Leo's eleventh album together, the trio again introduces new songs, and revives some old favorites. This "show" begins with a ballad by Lehua, the composer of such hits as "The Rest of Your Life" and "Flying with Angels," and ends up with a real "revival" song, "I'll Be Here 4U" by Angela. It makes you want to "lift up your hands, shout and sing." In between, there are covers of such hits as the Beatles' "With a Little Help From My Friends," "You've Got a Friend," "Lean on Me" and "These Dreams," and Jerry Santos' "Seabird." And there are new songs from Nalani, producer/songwriter Ken Makuakane, Daniel Ho, Zanuck Lindsey, Ginai Johnston and Marvalee Tahauri.These selections range from ballads, for which the three are most famous, to songs with a very infectious beat. "A Pocketful of Paradise" adds a special touch of aloha, and "Sugar Cane Shack" is just as "funky" as the shack itself. Throughout, you'll feel the warmth of friendship, their common bond, and the simple thoughts that have been their trademark in songs they've made famous.

Product Description
"All visitors ashore!"... was the familiar call from the ports of Tahiti, New Zealand, Fiji, Samoa and our beloved Hawai'i in the 1950s. All who stepped foot on shore fell in love with the mystique and the romance of these magical islands including two distinguished composers, Alfred Newman and Ken Darby. Combined, these two brilliant men have composed for such award-winning films as "The King and I," "Wuthering Heights," and "How the West Was Won." After experiencing the islands, and working with similar arrangements on films "South Pacific" and "Bird of Paradise," the found it impossible to put down their conductor batons and ignore the wondrous and alluring sights and sounds of Hawai'i. In 1960, they produced for Capital Records, this album, Ports of Paradise, calling it "a culmination and most definitive expression of the enchantment which(they) have found in the moods, the repose, the mystery of those far-off places."Customer Reviews:
The Five Albums That Changed Your Life.......2007-08-04
This is no accident. Ken Darby and Alfred Newman composed and recorded for Hollywood in its heyday. They had use of one of the big sound stages to make this recording. It features full orchestra, men's and women's chorus, and some of the best solo singers of the day. But the most wonderful thing about the recording is that Ken Darby assembled a gorgeous collection of exotic percussion instruments, including tom-toms, boo-bams, Chinese glass, Japanese wind chimes, Hindu tree bells and anklet bells, jawbone, lava rocks and gourds, as well as the more conventional xylophone, vibraphone, marimbas, timpani, gongs, cymbals, and an original bamboo organ recreated by Ken Darby. (This is a direct quote from the liner notes, which include a wonderful photo of the assembled percussion instruments.)
My favorite songs are "Whispering Wind" and an amazingly sexy version of "My Little Grass Shack." The latter employs the exotic percussion instruments to fine effect. But I also love "The Enchanted Sea," "Isa Lei," and "Blue Tahitian Moon." The only song on the album I'm not crazy about is "Madonna of the Flowers," but even this song is at least somewhat redeemed by spectacular vocals.
For years,I've been hoping PORTS OF PARADISE would be released as a quality CD recording. Now that it's here, I've purchased several for myself, friends, and family. That's the highest recommendation I can offer.
Memories of the South Pacific.......2007-06-05
Since 1960 I have been to the South Pacific a number of times, so have made many new memories. Imagine my thrill a few years ago when I was departing a small Fijian island in a little boat. We were all throwing flowers on the water (which meant we would return) while the Fijians on shore waved goodbye and sang Isa Lei--the song I remembered so well from the album. My friends looked surprised as a sang along with the beautiful Fijian voices. Coincidentally, I'm returning to that same island next month and will enjoy the beautiful music from the natives along with my new CD.
Thank you so much Amazon for keeping up to date on music releases.
The "Long Wait" is OVER!.......2007-04-02
For Christmas of 1960, on my return from a most difficult military assignment, my older sister gave me this LP, and she bought it "...because it has a pretty cover!" We both fell in love with it on the spot. Since the emergence of CDs, many other music lovers and I have continually petitioned Capitol Records to produce POP on CD, but to no avail, and we pretty much gave up. However, "There is a God!"
To provide a short "tour" of the CD, the title song, "Ports of Paradise" is a sweeping, almost epic introduction to a magnificent South Pacific cruise of the senses, beautifully guided by the Ken Darby Singers and matchless orchestration. You will be inclined to lie back and close your eyes. Equally inspirational, yet eminently shorter, is "Farewell for Just a While." Those with the most tender of musical souls will have no difficulty envisioning a tender "goodbye," against a glorious sunset, and it will most assuredly "put you in a mood!"
Perhaps the crowning glory, or the "home port" for the experience, is the incomparable "Now is The Hour," which is practically a religious experience. It is the best rendition ever recorded, in my humble yet considerable experience.
Thank you, Capitol - and Amazon!

a must see destination.......2007-03-20
The Sound is Excellent , All the beautiful Book with its lovely photos of the Hawaiian islands are reproduced too
Lionel Newman & Ken Darby worked on many great projects in thier careers over the years , both together and apart , but this must stand as a highlight .
Mavis Rivers is heard too sharing her magnificent Vocal abilitys .
this was a major project of Capitol in its day was a hugely expensive project. this easily shines through in the quality in every aspect of the package.
A must have for Hawaiian fans and fans of Beautiful orchestral light/Easy music .
