Product Description
From Amazon.com
With the boom in world music it's easy to forget that some of the best music from "there" is being made in the U.S. Alongside the large number of Portuguese that populate Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusetts is a vibrant local community of Cape Verdean expatriates, playing the music the way it was played when they or their parents left the island, preserving and sharing the music with their fellow islanders and their new neighbors. This collection features some wonderful bands. Toi Grace and the Verdatones (you gotta love that name) offer a smooth and mellow pop style, heavy on the saxophone. Celina Pereira offers morna in a sultry voice over a simple guitar, bass, and fiddle backing. One of the showstoppers of the set is the hot fiddle sound of Alberto Rodrigues and his band, a real roadhouse sound full of smoke and whispers. All through the set are subtle variations on the Afro-Portuguese sound that has developed on the island and is now growing in the States. --Louis Gibson
