Mike Hanapi was a brilliant steel guitarist and vocalist from Honolulu, whose recordings with Kalama’s Quartet and the Ilima Islanders remain among the highest peaks of early 20th century Hawaiian music. Truly peaceful, tranquil and unique.
Hanapi’s gorgeous falsetto voice is backed by lush harmony vocals, like a lonesome yodel floating above an oceanside choir. The purely acoustic instrumentation of lap steel guitars, ukeleles and harp-guitars weaves gently in and out of the vocal melodies, creating fluid and harmonious layers and achingly beautiful blue notes. While past reissues of Hawaiian music from this era have focused on “hot” and up-tempo material, this compilation is entirely dedicated to the peaceful, deeply emotional and lilting style in which Mike Hanapi and Kalama’s Quartet excelled.
Most of these songs have never been reissued on any format, and have been remastered from original 78 rpm discs by Tim Stollenwerk, with beautiful clarity and presence.
12” black vinyl LP with reverse-board jacket, and 8-page full sized booklet with biographical notes, rare and previously unpublished photographs, and full lyrics in Hawaiian and English. Co-released with Olvido Records.

Incredible Devotional
Format: Hardcover
I read Reason for Marriage and it was one of my all time favorite books! Tim Keller was a brilliant author. My husband does not read at all, but I wanted him to experience the value of this book. The devotional has been short enough for him to stay focused and thought provoking enough for him to contribute to the conversation. Really insightful and thoughtful topics. I love that they don’t just breeze through all different topics but dive really deep into each one and spend multiple days digging deeper and deeper. Highly recommend!

I'm glad I chose these women vitamins!!!
I chose these women's vitamins because I don't like swallowing pills much at all and they are easy to swallow,plus they are a great vitamin supplement. Consistency is the key and it's a big bottle which is great for the price. I love these vitamins and I feel the difference in my body. These aren't just vitamins that get urinated out,they are absorbed. Be sure to follow directions for use on the bottle for best results.

Hard to find capsules
Im so glad these are capsules and not gummies (extra carbs) or tablets (does the body even absorb them) Nutrients are getting to the bloodstream quicker.
