|
Light, joyful South African folk/pop. This singer/guitarist has a sunny, slightly husky voice and great style. This entire release is gentle and warm and every track is worth a play. Especially these: 1. Nicely swaying w/a sweet playful quality & lots of style. 2. Lazy love song w/Ladysmith. In English, gentle & sweet. 3. Starts slow, picks up into a happy little ramble w/whistling. 5. Midtempo w/a solid beat & good vocals. 8. Organ/guitar intro to an uptempo Afrobeat happy dance. 11. Midtempo gospel/folk with good use of chorus. 12. Bright & happy scatting into a bouncy soaring sound. 14. Fast percussion leads to sweet, melodic folk. 16. You can’t go wrong with Pata Pata. Upbeat & so catchy. | ||
