Aloha Hawaii - The Blue Ribbon Orchestra

Dark Dawn
Aloha Hawaii
The Blue Ribbon Orchestra
Blue Ribbon (Premier) BRM-7019

This record promised to be total 60s easy listening strings.

The record turns out to be an interesting listen. There is no stellar exotic weirdness going on, but whoever did the arranging did a fine job. The music is subtle, a touch quirky and the strings aren't overwhelming. Lovely and mysterious chorus/vocal backing touches really help sell the tracks that they are featured on.

  1. I have several of these albums by the Blue Ribbon Strings in my collection, they are actually very nice and the arrangements very good, nice listening. They used ok vinyl.
