JEFF'S COMMENT
Hawaiian Airlines wanted my kid’s stories on their in-flight audio program (summer, ’06)… GREAT, but my best Kid Hits weren’t recorded! OUCH! I called piano improvisation wizard LES ADAM, famous for his ‘Upcountry Sunday’ concerts in Casanova’s Bar aired live on Mana’o Radio (Secret Weapon comes from there). Saturday I flew over and BARRY SHANNON welcomed us into Mana’o Radio. LES, ALANA CINI (didgeridoo) & I recorded for 2 hours (Intro, Banyan Tree, Glove) before percussion wizard SANDRA LEE AKAKA joined us for another hour (eerie screech begins Aiea Heiau!). This was our 4th session improvising together. That night, bone tired, rain falling, Les and I recorded more (1st Day North Shore). Sunday Les & I did a kid show (Laughs, Shadow Tale). Then came the ‘Golden Hour’ (Dapper Dan, Zipper Hero, Get On The Bus) before I returned to Oahu. Wow! I’m so proud of this spontaneous work and so thankful to these friends.  And I sold 300 of these CDs that summer! You get one too.

"My three grandchildren stayed for 2 weeks with me. On the way to Eugene, they saw your cd lying there. They know stories and asked if they could hear it. All three laughed all the way there. Twice more in the car they asked to hear the "funny guy." They imitated you all week. Needless to say, you were a hit with the 9-12 year old boys. They loved it!" -Joyce (runs Oregon Festival)
