slack key

Two wonderful hours were spent this last Sunday listening to Jeff Peterson at the Ulupalakua Sparkle event. He is an outstanding slack key guitar player and couple him with the environment of the Tedeschi Winery and it made for a magical Maui moment. Reason #208 that I moved back.  The music, the free beer and wine tasting, glass blowing, Maui Gold pineapple and of course the views made it well worth the drive. In all honesty I have never been to the winery, I have only ever passed it on the way home from Hana tired and car sick. Jeff played all sorts of wonderful Christmas music and great songs off his album, Maui on My Mind. He offered to play any song we requested, told great stories of his 'hanabata days' and more often than not he was improvising his way through some incredible tunes.
