Hawai'ian Sup'pa Man

Hey folks, yet another CD I thought I'd pass along:

Iz

"Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World" has been on ER, Meet Joe Black, Finding Forrester, and 50 First Dates. We heard the whole album at Barnes & Noble last Sunday, and I think I have to get it. The melodic quality of Iz's Hawai'ian songs is captivating, and he's funny to boot. Too bad he croaked back in '97 or some such.

Just so's y'all know, I won't be posting for a while. I'm working on a couple things offline, but I'm really into my books right now and the baby is demanding a lof of attention while he learns to crawl. Plus, I'm going to Seattle for two weeks, and we have company all the weekends before I leave. So no tattoo posts, obviously, and probably very very little of anything else.

Take care, and I'll be back around Sept 1 in full force (I'm guessing).

I have always hated "Over the Rainbow" even though I love all things OZ, except the Black Sabbath kind, but I fell in love with the music on Finding Forrester and went immediately to the IMDB site to track it down. Also went to a couple of Iz's fansites---he's very big, in so many ways. Let me know if you enjoy the whole CD---it's only available to me by ordesring from Amazon or some US site, so I have to pay US $$$ and shipping, and would hate to do that and want to ditch the CD. No pressure.
Have a great rest of summer; will you get tattoed in Seattle?

Yeah I think this guy is really great. I had a few of his MP3s on my old hard drive that crashed. I really enjoyed them.

I've heard of this guy but never listened to his music...another one to order along with the Paul Anka CD I suppose! ;-)

Enjoy the break Meepers, hope to see you back soon.

Well, have fun in Seattle- you'll be missed! Tell Joe I said hi, and Jack I said "goo goo".
