专辑简介

Ginni is one of the founding mothers of the Women's Music Movement: her round robins at the early women's music festivals helped foster the newly emerging phenomenon as a participatory network, rather than a group of performers playing to a passive audience. In celebration of her life, we're happy to offer this sing-along CD of her beautiful original songs, inspired by living on the island of Maui. Infused with insightful lyrics, humor, and her genuine spirit, it includes some veritable gems that put this CD on our list of recommended ones. Kanikau O Hawai'i speaks eloquently of the shame of Hawaii's colonization and commercial development, while Broken Open is one of the most beautiful love songs ever written (think of this if you ever need a song for a commitment ceremony). Of course, no recording by Ginni would be complete without one of her sassy blues tunes, and she delivers it with Volcano Momma (Geothermal Blues). Do yourself a favor, and recapture the spirit of the early women's music movement with this DIY recording.
