Review by Chuck Minear

Len Fillis And His Hawaiian Orchestra's album "When The Leaves Bid The Trees Goodbye Say The Word And Its Yours" is a delightful collection of Hawaiian music that transports the listener to a tropical paradise. The album features Len Fillis' virtuosic guitar playing, which is complemented by the lush sounds of the orchestra. The tracks are a mix of traditional Hawaiian tunes and original compositions by Fillis, all of which are infused with the spirit of the islands.

The album opens with the upbeat "Hawaiian Honeymoon," a catchy tune that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Other standout tracks include "Maui Chimes," a dreamy instrumental that evokes images of swaying palm trees and gentle ocean breezes, and "Moonlight And Shadows," a romantic ballad that showcases Fillis' tender vocals.

Throughout the album, Fillis demonstrates his mastery of the Hawaiian guitar style, which involves using a steel slide to create a smooth, gliding sound. His playing is both technically impressive and emotionally expressive, conveying a range of moods and emotions.
