Reviewed 2009-10-16
Delicious vocals full of warmth and clarity. A blend of Cape Verde and Portugal with some wonderful guitar work. The music is lyrical and romantic for the most part with her crystal-beautiful vocals carrying the whole thing. Good stuff. (The CD is pronounced “ZHIN-tee”.)

*1. Sweet, sexy, sunny and fresh. A midtempo breath of fresh air.
2. Warm midtempo sway with gentle & beautiful vocals.
*3. Downtempo, delicate and so gorgeous.
4. Spoken word, Portuguese poetry. No music. Very nice.
*5. Relaxed and romantic w/a sweet sophistication.
*6. Upbeat Afro-infused wiggle. Bright & sexy.
7. Hip percussion, a hint of funk. Modern and midtempo.
*8. Mid/upbeat Afro funk w/a driving sound. So cool.
9. Sunny, sexy and warm midtempo sway.
10. Simple vocals, acoustic guitar, slow & beautiful.
11. Romantic tropical dance, no frills and so lovely.
12. Soft and warm world jazz with great work from band.
13. Slow and passionate. Soaring vocals & gentle guitar.
14. Street noises back a relaxed and bright midtempo song.
