Album Review
Decca
Reviewed 2003-11-05

The first US release from this fadista combines traditional fado with original compositions that have a more folk feel. Her voice, as you’d expect, is rich, deep, lush, and expressive. Ably backed by guitar & bass.

*1. Slow & eloquent. Beautifully sad.
2. Downtempo w/a more modern folk sound.
*3. Midtempo, almost bouncy.
4. Rich vocals, down/mid tempo. Nicely lyrical.
*5. Slow, delicate, gentle, and emotional. Lovely.
6. Midtempo w/some nice flourishes from the guitars.
7. Soaring vocals, good guitar. Pretty melody.
*8. Sad passion & delicate guitars. Great vocals.
*9. Another sad song of loss & longing.
10. Sorrow set to guitars.
11. Downtempo & melodic.
12. Bright, midtempo, nice vocals.
13. A more modern sound. Equally sad, but different.
14. Almost happy w/that touch of folk.
