Title: Frighteningly Barbaric Sounds
Review: While Mr. Ho probably represents the ultimate in authentic Hawaiian traditional singing, I can't say I really go for that kind of rough, old-fashioned folk music, with its macho depictions of intertribal warfare and patriarchal oppressiveness. Call me a wimp, but I much prefer the softer smoother sounds of early 1960s "lounge" music, with all those cool daddy-o lyrics and mellow instrumental accompaniment. You just can't beat something like Les Elgart or Dick Hyman for soothing background to your next full-tux cocktail party.
