Customer Reviews Dream Guitar I can smell the plumeria, see the swaying palms and feel the ocean spray - even without a Mai Tai! Diana . Magical, mystical ``` brain waves change to a serene pattern in moments. Peaceful Massage Music This CD really fits the bill. As a massage therapist, I am always looking for music that soothes my clients and stimulates me. It has a lovely pace throughout. Clients enjoy it as much as I do. Totally beautiful tropical guitar music... " While their singing doesn't stink, the real magic is in the guitar picking, and this all-instrumental CD is just plain wonderful. When I moved to the Big Island in 1978, for what would become a stay of just over three years, the Beamers were the hottest thing on the Hawaiian music scene, due to their vocal version of "Honolulu City Lights. This is worth serious attention with headphones on, and it's great in the background of parties or while surfing the net or doing the bills, or driving around your hometown on the Mainland, wishing you were on one of the islands instead. I can't imagine any music lover not relishing this collection: it's all pleasure, all the time. To tell the truth, actually living in Hawaii is NOT "all pleasure, all the time"---the bugs never die, it either rains too much or too little, depending on which side of the island one lives on, the economy is often weak, the costs of living are frightening, neighbors are often too noisy. . . many of the same troubles one has wherever one resides. But the music! The music depicts the paradise that in reality, only exists in part. Buy this CD, and your fantasies about Hawaii will be confirmed, which is not altogether a bad thing. .
