Decca
Reviewed 2010-10-16
Brazilian vocal jazz. She has a warm, husky, sexy voice and is backed by a tight, no-frills band. In Portuguese and English. It’s sophisticated and stylish with an air of late-night romance.

*1. Up/midtempo and moving w/lots of style.
2. Slow and warm ballad, picks up later w/sweet chorus.
3. English ballad, an intimate late-night jazz club feel.
*4. Lightly bouncing w/a playful air & some sweet horns & perc.
*5. Warm mid/upbeat w/a sweet arrangement.
*6. Muted trombone, percussion, then lightly swaying vocals. Sweet.
*7. Upbeat, stylish piano/perc intro to warm and sexy bit of fluff.
8. Slow and fragile ballad w/spare arrangement & light touch.
9. Bright & bouncy w/tripping vocals & warm work from band.
10. Up/midtempo wiggle w/fun interplays between her & band.
11. An air of sadness to this ballad. Lots of passion too.
*12. Relaxed bossa nova jazz w/a bright and warm sound.
13. Midtempo and happy sway w/a sophisticated air.
14. Guitar leads into a happy midtempo love song.
15. Slow piano and vocal duet w/sweetly sad vocals.
