PITCAIRN SONGS
$10.50 + shipping $10.20
PITCAIRN SONGS is my very first CD.
I started writing songs in September of 1987 whilst on my first visit to Norfolk Island.
In 1999 Phil Hayward discovered who I am whilst I was on Norfolk Island and was eager to hear my songs. After much persuassion he encouraged me to record all that I have written and we decided to use these 8 tracks to make my first ever CD.
Phil Hayward was able to produced my CD Through the Centre for Contempory music studies in Macquarie University.
This Album is still very popular as the songs I have written tells a great deal about our history.
I have changed the label and cover several times but the music is still the same.
Enjoy

With Love Maimiti CD
The song, With Love Maimiti was written in 2000 on top the Hill over looking Adamstown at a place named Big Ridge. It is about Mauatua who is also known as Maimiti or English name Isobella. Maimiti who is my Great great great great Grandmother has been my mentor since I learnt about her from my Mother, Bernice Christian and other elders of the Pitcairn community.
Spending time on Norfolk Island, They nicknamed me Maimiti and I carry the name proudly.
Track 6 of this albumn is dedicated to my Norfolk Island family and my love of the people of Norfolk Island.

HERE COMES MAMA WITH HER NIAU BROOM
Here comes Mama with her Niau broom was written by Arthur Baysting and myself whilst I was recouping from spinal surgery in New Zealand
The whole albumn was created using 4 of the songs that Arthur and I wrote together and the other 4 I wrote here on PI and New Zealand in 2009
Some of the songs I wrote to help the Children of Pitcairn to remember our Pitcairn words, their meaning and the different phrases.it took a lot of learning and help from James Baysting to master the recording setup and finally on the day I left NZ,I had with me the master copy of this CD.
A Bonus track on this disc for you to enjoy.
Happy Listening
