CD Reviews

Some of the most beautiful, soothing music we've ever heard.

Niels & Pat Sundermeyer (sundy@cruz | Santa Cruz, California | 10/29/1999

(5 out of 5 stars)

"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.

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

This CD is an instant trip to the islands of Hawaii.

"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."
