Don Ho's very name has become a veritable punchline. Yet his achievements can not be dismissed as easily as an obvious joke. Few recording artists have been so comfortable in so many genres--Don Ho masterfully handles anything from country to light rock to luau listening. He's almost a Jimmy Buffet from an earlier generation. His version of "Tiny Bubbles" is the standard by which all others are judged. Don Ho is to Honolulu what Wayne Newton is to Vegas.

Hawaiian Dreams CD music

As any quick perusal of old Top 40 rock & roll station playlists will attest, singles were where the shakin' action was, as rock & roll albums were scarce as hen's teeth back in those pre-Beatle days. But when the record companies decided to issue one, it was usually an artifact of high rockin' value and some major influence. Naysayers to the contrary, this debut album by the Northwest's first great rock & roll combo is just such an artifact. The Wailers dispensed crude, greasy, largely instrumental rock & roll music for those who came to shake it up and shake it down, and it's all on fine, rhythmic, open display here. This album is amazing in its own simplistic, nuthin'-special way, its crudity almost palpable. There's only one vocal aboard, Kent Morrill's "Dirty Robber," later covered and torched by the Sonics. Everything else is built on the riff-sturdy bones of their biggest hit, "Tall Cool One." With two guitars, piano, sax, and drums -- no bass player anywhere on here, another crudeness indicator of the times and locale it was recorded in -- all blasting away like they're working a VFW Hall dance, hoof shakers like "Wailin'," "Shanghaied," "Beat Guitar" (featured in the soundtrack of the misguided Jerry Lee Lewis bioflick Great Balls Of Fire), and "Gunnin' For Peter" stand loud and proud as teen hall pre-Beatle rock & roll at its finest. Even more amazing is that the tonal crudity of this recording is enhanced even further on the stereo pressings of this album! Northwest grunge in its original 1950s incarnation that can be appreciated by everyone who hears its basic message, unless you happen to have something against ...

| | Fartz What's In A Name? CD (2001)
Hawaiian Dreams songs
$8.55 
Some aging hardcore fans were stirred by the idea of a reunion album by Seattle's the Fartz, the city's earliest hardcore band of note. (The reunion, naturally, doesn't include drummer Duff "Rose" McKagan, later much better-known as the rhythm guitarist in Guns N' Roses.) However, What's in a Name is a disappointment on most levels. Nearly all of the 15 tracks (everything except covers of Black Sabbath's "Children of the Grave" and Motörhead's "Iron Fist") are old Fartz songs available in their original versions on the compilation Because This Fuckin' World Still Stinks, and there's nothing particularly different about these new versions except that Jack Endino's production is slightly cleaner. Singer Blaine Cook's voice is even more shot than it used to be, making the strident but simplistic political pronouncements ...
