Paradise "HIGHwai'ian Style

HIGH price, = near $3.14c per song; ain't heard it yet, got the VHS, my favorite song: A Dogs' Life, only in this title, but $30.00-for a CD? It's from the U.K., NOT DREAM, it's DERAM, one subsidery of the London/DECCA group. Since the movie was shot here, in Hawai'i, O'ahu/Honolulu, I'll take a guess that the U.K. CD may be in STEREO, so fake sound. No information at CDNOW

>divide the $30.00 + outlay, and it's only 10 tracks = near $3.50 per song. Due to online lack of CD information, mono/Stereo, I'd suggest: buy the VHS. Some nice on site pictures showing the 1960s' Honolulu on O'ahu, now deleted from the island of O'ahu. It was nice here, the video shows the way it WAS. Price WAY too HIGH! *2 Stars* too High a price!

I started in musicology from 1954. Any Q&A <apa_musica@yahoo.com>

What Gives on the PRICE!!!?

I'm coordinating a Hawaiian themed banquet for a few hundred people. I wanted to purchase this CD so to play "Drums of the Island" and "Queenie Waheenie" for our guests. Unfortunately, the price for this CD is an ASTOUNDING $56.00!!!! I can't understand why the vendor has priced this item so far out of sight. I'm either going to have to pass, or just purchase the DVD movie itself and play the songs from that for a mere $13.00!



By the way, I'm very possessive about music purchases. Once I buy a CD - even if it is for this annual event - I can't bring myself to let go of it (and be reimbursed for the expense). Therefore, the expense for the music is out of my own pocket. As much as I want this music, I can't bring myself to pay that price.



...so what gives? It's not even remastered and still wouldn't be worth $56 if it were.
