Help me find some music to use that would be peppy enough to use for cardiac rehab. Today I took a CD of hula music to our rehab class but it was much too slow, very nahenahe. I need some suggestions for mele that would get our pu`uwai workin' out! I'll take your suggestions and whatever we have on CD, I burn onto another CD and call it Cardiac Rehab Mele or something like that. Title for the CD would be good, too.

Please help me out quickly because I want to have this ready on Monday for our last session before our "Hele Fo' Da Mele".

Mahalo.

Try Gary Madeiros' album, "Hula Pa'ina". It's hula, but he's a changalang specialist. Even if I'm on it, it's a fine CD. Can get 'em thru Mele.com or by contacting Gary, who lurks about here.

Hi Wanda,
Check out "Walkin' on the Jetty" by Jay Syverson- www.cdbaby.com/cd/jsyverson
Slack key inspired guitar instrumentals.

I second this suggestion.

Even if the music ends up not being quite what you are after, you should STILL check it out; it's a marvelous album.

Oh I do have Gary Medeiros' album. Yes, I will choose one or two from there.
And Jay, your music is nice, but not quite what I am looking for. Part of this whole process is to introduce these Cleveland folks to traditional type Hawaiian music. I think maybe I will put some Na Palapalai (Aia La O Pele I Hawai`i), maybe some Willie K. (You Ku`u Ipo), but I need more ideas. I need to put together about an hours worth. We have lots of music but a lot of it is nahenahe stuff. Maybe Panini Puakea by Gabby. I was thinking the Toad Song by Keali`i Reichel, but then I might scare them away from Hawaiian music.

Malama pono,

Wanda, you're not making it easy to offer suggestions when you say you want:

Maybe it would be better to give us a list of a dozen or songs that you already know are what you are after, and we can suggest some in similar veins.

(Veins? Cardiac rehab? I kill myself, I really do.)

Well I think for songs:
Radio Hula, Ledward style
Opihi Moemoe, not sure yet whose version
Maui Girl, Andy Cummings dem
Aia La O Pele I Hawai`i, Na Palapalai
Noho Paipai
Ka Uluwehi O Ke Kai
Papalina Lahilahi

It is easier to work out if there is a pretty solid beat to it. Every Monday at rehab is polka day so we get Johnny Sturr, Frankie Yankovic, etc. The other days just depends on what anyone brings in or what the exercise physiologist finds at the library. (But I am telling you Celine Dion music is not really good for rehab.

On other occasions when we have brought Hawaiian music, most of it is too nahenahe. Our friends there say it was quite relaxing and lovely music, but it really didn't get the pu`uwai thumping.

At least I am proud of myself that I learned how to burn CDs. I might get rid of my techno-tard status some day.

And yes, Retro, you are indeed quite the comedian.

Oooh, yeah - and Malihini -- the Iz doing Margarita, that is a good one!!!! But definitely not traditional style Hawaiian, but I love it anyhow, especially the part about "we go in the dark and we don't need a spear".

Happened to be listening to Cyril on his 12 string when I read this.

Try Moloka'i-Nui-A-Hina if you want slack key.
