Country Comfort came out of Waimanalo in the early Seventies, recorded two albums, and self-destructed within a few short years. In that time they helped change the sound of contemporary Hawaiian music. They didn't play tourist music and they didn't play music that was considered Hawaiian. They were the vanguards of a new wave of music - locals of the baby boomer generation who sang in English instead of Hawaiian. Who could have known that their music would redefine contemporary music in Hawaii forever and that their name would become synonymous with the time? |
