Album Notes

Honolulu Star Bulletin Review 12/26/08
JOHN BERGER

It seems at times that "inspirational" is used as a politically correct euphemism for "Christian," perhaps as a way of selling music to people who aren't seeking sectarian messages. Listen closely to the lyrics of Anita Hall's beautiful new album, and while there are a few references to "God" and "my Lord" scattered through it, the primary theme here is the power of love in and of itself rather than as the dividend of embracing a specific religious creed.

Hall's range and power as a vocalist won't come as a surprise for people who've heard her sing with Nueva Vida -- last month at the Opera Ball, for example. Anyone hearing her for the first time will discover a multifaceted vocalist who can belt it out over a big modern rock arrangement or caress each note and nuance in an introspective ballad. And, although recording is an entirely different game from performing, her long-time fans will be delighted by her work here.

Credit too goes to producer/musicians Dave Tucciarone and Carlos Villalobos, and musician Michael Ruff; their contributions are similar enough to fit well together yet diverse enough to make each song distinct. It's easy, especially on an "inspirational" or "praise" album, for the musical arrangements to become almost an afterthought to "the Word," but that's not a problem here.

Add the contributions of Dan Del Negro, Fiji, Shawn Pimental and "Little Albert" Maligmat, and Hall's album is "love-ly," indeed.

I'm so happy for you, Anita.  You finally did it after all this time.  And what a great selection of songs . . . so fitting for the holiday season and inspirational in these hard times that are upon us.  You've always had a beautiful voice, even way back in our humble beginnings . . . but we did have fun, didn't we?  My heartfelt congratulations to you!  Well, well done!!!
