Highly coveted Hawaiian jazz/soul album. The debut album from Mackey Feary's solo band after departing seminal contemporary Hawaiian group, Kalapana. This LP reads like a who's who in the local 70s music scene: Nohelani Cypriano (of "Lihue" cult fame), Azure McCall (of Lemuria), Jimmy Funai (who produced Hal Bradbury's debut), and Gaylord Holomalia (who now runs the island studio where stars record, incl. Kanye West, Jay-Z, Mariah Carey). Unlike other reissues, this Aloha Got Soul pressing includes the full version of 'Powerslide' in all it's 7-minute glory. An all-time classic must-have record from the Hawaiian Islands.
