"Israel ""IZ"" Kamakawiwo'ole has become a worldwide phenomenon thanks to his stirring version of the classic ""Somewhere Over the Rainbow"".
'Somewhere Over the Rainbow :- The Best of Israel Kamakawiwo'Ole', thirteen of his choice recordings are collected in one package. From the title track through ""Wind Beneath My Wings"" (once a hit for Bette Midler) and the Willie Dan song ""White Sandy Beach"" to the tracks sung in Hawaiian, IZ grooves gracefully in that high male-voice register so typical of his Pacific homeland.
