Title: A sound and soul unique
Review: IZ's voice is well known to many from his background music on a television commercial for a toy company. He makes everything he sings his own, no matter the genre, the era. He sings traditional (pre-statehood) Hawaiian music with a vibrance that reflects his love of the islands and the early way of island life which he worked to promote. He sings popular standards adding his own soaring improvisations, his own interpretations, revealing music we never knew was there. Buy this recording. Buy all his recordings, as I have. Listen to them all by yourself, then listen to them with your closest friends. They are deeply-felt, deeply-personal works of music that have touched me and broadened my vision of what good music can be.
