Comments:
This 1989 album was produced by Jerry Santos and Michael Kelly in Honolulu. It is a very individual album, based upon a theme of friendship based on love (E Nihi Ka Hele) and ends with the message that "true love never fades" (A Song In The Wind).....using country folk, Hawaiian traditional songs, and ballads, Jerry calls on vocal and instrumental from talented island notables: Peter Moon, Kapono Beamer, Haunani Apoliona, and many more, and chooses material from Hawaiian (Hewett, Combs) and mainland (Fogelberg, Manchester, Bryant) sources. With a mixture unified by the universal theme of friendship, Santos's Expecting Friends album demonstrates that human music recognizes no geographical or political boundaries Jerry Santos is the lead singer and guitarist in the popular group Olomana (CD03 and CD48 in the Hawaiian Paradise Music catalog). When I first moved to Kauai in 1980, I first fell in love with their beautiful songs and harmonies as well as Jerry's sweet tenor voice. His slack key guitar style is beautiful, classic and this is a definite must. An easy listening invitation. I was privileged to dance a hula with them in 1990. A fond moment I'll never forget.
