[1991] Kilauea / Antigua Blue (Full Album)

I've always thought of this group as The Rippingtons V.2.0. Hands down one of the top L.A. jazz-fusion groups during the early 90s, led by Hawaiian keyboardist Daniel Ho, and featuring Brandon Fields on Sax as well as Russ Freeman as composer/arranger [hence that Ripps vibe]. I bought this CD back around 1993 at my go-to CD store Camelot Music in the "jazz" section at Gwinnett Place Mall back in the dayz... I later bought the rest of their discography as it dropped. Great band.

1. Adventure Highway 0:00
2. Antigua Blue 5:30

Russ Freeman transports me to a world where everything is perfect...

Are you kidding me? This album is absolutely amazing. I recognise bits and bobs out of 90s American movies, Japanese Animes, American Sitcomes and 90s Video games! Thanks for sharing this amazing piece of art!

Excelente álbum de KILAUEA (sé que este volcán está en HAWAI) lo escuche muchísimo todo esto en 95.3 STEREO AMISTAD CDMX allá por fines 80 s y principios de los 90S del siglo pasado. Me encanta la NEW-AGE MUSIC gracias por existir en ese entonces de 1989 tenía 27 años, hoy ya cumplí recién 61 pero me encanta esta hermosa música, la cual llevare quizás hasta mi funeral el día que me tenga que ir. ¡¡Saludos a todos los aquí presente desde el SURESTE DE LA REPUBLICA MEXICANA !! y para el mundo.

As a big fan of The Rippingtons, I instantly fell in love with this album (and group) when I first heard it years ago. Wish they made more albums.

[@Houlgravely]

My favorite Kilauea album as well!

[@chrisphelan2419]

Good stuff with many of the Ripps contributing

[@benkeating4836]

Pirates Cove has always been in my top 10 favourite fusion tunes ever since I discovered it a few years ago. The whole album is bliss.

[@TechnicolourMan]

I saw The Rippingtons twice. I got to talk briefly with Jeff Kaziwa and Steve Reid at one of the concerts. I have this album, too. I love Brandon Fields. He has some fine solo albums.

[@tituspertinax454]

I've met and talked with Brandon Fields and Russ Freeman at one of the Rippingtons concerts. Great concert and nice guys to talk with about music.

[@brianreardon7700]

Isle of Lucy my favorite on this album…love love love it!!!

[@Cactus521]

My fav album of theirs--agree with you on the Rippingtons comparison, also compares to T-Square's Truth.

[@RossoNero1987]

It's exactly as amazing as I was expecting by the cover.

[@RossoNero1987]

2:46 i love these little pitch bends and exotic scale

[@lizgoodwin1812]

Thanks for returning this keepsake to the forefront, Kyle. The band has such infectious energy! Always great to hear the unheralded Mr. Brandon Fields on alto saxophone. Love the serene cover artwork! Thank you again and Blessings to you & all!

[@ricksegal3065]

Played this a lot back in the day.

[@ChrisWilliams87-06]

Helping my parents move, found this old cassette in storage, forgot all about this.

Ditto on the Rippintons fans here. This is a a great album here with most of the Rippingtons members.

[@orionis4416]

Precioso álbum ❤

[@CiroVilla]

Basically 90% of the Ripps..(it's a good thing) 😄

[@kittyhawk-ud3id]

😋 let's take a ride yall

[@RossoNero1987]

I've just noticed the mountains on the cover are silhouette of a woman if you rotate the cover.

[@ColtraneTaylor]

So ... who has this album on blogspot somewhere?

[@custino22]

guitar player not credited

[@NyeGuy-yv2dv]

Needs more cowbell.

[@BadassRubbas]

Wow, the great singer Clair Marlo doing the bass and drums!!!!

[@dltguitar6532]

Is Russ freeman playing the guitars?

[@mattweldon5159]

The debut project from pop-jazz ensemble Kilauea is basically The Rippingtons sans leader Russ Freeman. Led by keyboardist Daniel Ho, the band on their first recording features guest Ripps Steve Bailey, Brandon Fields, Steve Reid and Tony Morales --along with an entire album populated by heretofore unreleased Freeman tunes.

[@dltguitar6532]

@@mattweldon5159 cool

[@kidwaryodproduction]

In album credits it's a guy named "David Pless" but I think it's AKA that Russ Freeman used.
