The album begins with "CAN'T HELP FALLIN' IN LOVE," a Hawaiian standard that we hope will become like Israel Kamakawiwo?ole's "SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW..." (IZ), and continues with a collection of classic songs by The Beach Boys, The Turtles, Burt Bacharach, James Taylor, Hall & Oates, Elvis Presley, Gino Vannelli, and The Bee Gees, reborn as new songs through tasteful arrangements, maestro guitar playing that expresses them, and his one-of-a-kind voice. The album concludes with the original "THAT'S ALL I EVER WANTED TO DO," reminiscent of the gentle waves of Hawaii, and a superb cover of Jimmy Webb's "BY THE TIME I GET TO PHOENIX"! This is his 8th solo album overall. (His first performance in Japan is also scheduled for autumn 2019!) This is the 4th release from Tropic Hawaii Records.
