Brothers always maikai.......2007-02-18

The Cazimero Brothers are always maikai (good) but I usually prefer the songs they sing in Hawaiian as opposed to English. However, track #16 on this album, "Come Become Hawai'i" speaks to my heart. One hula halau in Kamuela was rehearsing the hula they were putting to this mele, and it absolutely gave me chicken skin. Beautiful to listen to- beautiful to look at. If you buy this album, be sure to listen carefully to the last track. It describes beautiful Hawai'i nei so perfectly. One of the things I love about traditional Hawaiian music is how often the songs describe the beauty of the islands & the Hawaiian people. Tears to my eyes-- joy to my heart. Mahalo nui to Roland & Robert.

very good.......2006-01-25

This cd is damn right impressive in that it only covers their first few albums, all of which i own by the way, and its perfect listening from top to bottom. This achievement not only ranks as one of the best hawaiian albums of all time, but one of the most beautifully and masterfully crafted pieces of art that this country should treasure.

Play it when you feel 'homesick' for Hawaii.......2000-01-17

The Best of the Brothers Cazimero is bound to land on the CD players of anyone who has spent any time in Hawaii, as a means to summoning the beauty of the islands though far away.

The song "Nani Hanalei" takes me directly to the lovely island of Kauai, and the CD as a whole reminds me of driving on Molokai near sunset as the local public radio station played tunes from the Brothers Cazimero. They sing in Hawaiian and English, and this disk serves as a nice summary of their career.

Absolutely Great...Period.......1999-08-23

This is a great compilations of the Brothers Cazimero's past recordings...I really like the first song

Excellent contemporary sound with a Hawaiian flavor........1999-08-09

I bought this album recently in Honolulu and have enjoyed it often since bringing it home. The melodies and harmonies are truly lovely. Good contemporary listening with an island flavor; this is excellent romantic and mood music.

My review of the latest Caz Collection.......2001-08-24

This album is really great, compiling both slow and fast songs, traditional and new compositions, all in the unique Cazimero style. Add in the fact that most of these songs aren't avalible on CD yet, and this becomes a must buy! A great disc overall! In particular, I love "Kai Wai Lehua 'A'ala Ka Honua", "Na'Ale o Ni'ihau" and my all time favorite, "Makee Ailana". Can't wait for Volume 4!

My FAVORITE Caz CD.......2007-03-01

If I get a little homesick this CD is a surefire way to help cure the blues. It's got all my favorite BC tunes with a few exceptions and is "balanced" - a little bit of old style Hawaiian flavor with a fun kick. This one's a winner!

Next best thing to a visit to the Islands.......2000-02-13

Listening to the Brothers Cazimero is the next best thing to a trip to the Hawaiian Islands. The range and exquisite harmony of the brothers' voices brightens even a cold, wet mainland day. The opening cut on this disk is one of my favorites. The disk combines straight Hawaiian work with English/Hawaiian pieces, always with a musicality that pleases. I have the first "Best of" as well, and frequently play them back to back. With a heat lamp, a quiet fan, and a little essential oil of tuberoses, I close my eyes, and I'm almost there.
