Buddy Merrill visited Hawaii with the Lawrence Welk
Orchestra in 1955 . While in Hawaii he became "in tune"
with the Hawaiian style of playing the steel guitar.
In this album Buddy features some of the great standard
songs, "Trade Winds" written by Clif Friend and Charlie
Tobias, and "Under A Coconut Tree" which he co-wrote with Curtis Ramsey and George Thow.
The album also introduces new Hawaiian songs,"Blue Paradise" and "On Rainbow Island" which Buddy co-wrote with Marian McGuire, and "Winds Of The Sea" co-written with
Scott Seely who also wrote, "Tahitian Sunset" arranged by
Buddy Merrill.

I enjoy this cd. Thanks to Scott Seely's ongoing efforts of re-mastering the entire Buddy Merrill catalog on Accent Records, generations of guitar music lovers and enthusiasts now have the advantage of hearing some of the very best guitar work ever recorded, by one of the best guitarist of our time. I especially like Trade Winds and Tahitian Sunset.
Thank you Buddy and Scott!
