George Kahumoku's album "Classic Hawaiian Hulas Vol. 1" with gentle accompaniment by Daniel Ho is one not to be missed! Not only will you hear the absolutely entrancing voice of George Kahumoku and the ukulele by Ho but they also include the significance of the songs and information on the tunings used during them on the CD. Among the beautiful songs are included "Pua Hone" and "Ke Kali Nei Au" (Hawaiian Wedding Song) a very requested song for weddings. The music will entrance and delight you. If you love Hawaiian music or just beautiful, easy listening you will love this album!

With Kahumoku's ki hoalu (slack key), his gentle voice, and Daniel Ho's ukulele this is a definite winner! I would highly recommend it for any Hawaiian music library. Love it! This is one I will be listening to for years.
