5.0 out of 5 stars Book me a ticket to Cape Verde !, 23 Aug 2001
By A Customer
What a find ! This seems so unlikely and yet contains some of the most beautiful music I've heard. Don't be put off by the barren photography on the front cover (the island of Sao Vicente), this contains colourful, rythmic music. It is obviously Cuban influenced with extraordinary sad Portuguese lyrics that wouldn't look out of place in any Greek tragedy. One of the laments which particularly haunts me is Crepuscular Solidao which she duets with Bonnie Raitt. It's an easy step from Buena Vista Social Club to Cesario Evora.

5.0 out of 5 stars gentle rhythms and good vibrations, 22 Sep 2003
By Alejandra Vernon "artist & illustrator" (Long Beach, California) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
This CD is balm for the soul, as Cesaria's warm voice hugs you with her lilting melodies and Brazilian rhythms; though some of the songs have wistful themes, it is uplifting music, and would set a lovely mood for a friendly gathering.
There are some guest artists on a few tracks: Canary Island singer/songwriter Pedro Guerra joins Cesaria in his "Tiempo y Silencio", and his smooth voice makes a wonderful blend with Cesaria's. This is the only song on the CD that is sung in Spanish (the rest are in Portuguese).
"Regresso" is a marvelous duet with the great Brazilian artist Caetano Veloso, and the arrangement for this song is fabulous, with terrific solo piano and guitar work.
"Negue" is exquisite in its simplicity, with Cesaria accompanied by Chucho Valdez (who is known as "The Duke Ellington of Cuba") on piano, and "Linda Mimosa" has the backing of the famous Cuban band Orquesta Aragon. Perhaps the weakest track on the CD is the duet with Bonnie Raitt; it doesn't quite work, with Raitt sounding a little uncertain and out of place.

There is a gentle tenderness to Cesaria's voice, and an honesty in her clear tones. By the time one gets to the gorgeous "Fada", which is perhaps my favorite track on the CD, one will simply love this woman.The musicianship is excellent throughout, as is the sound.
The booklet insert has all the lyrics in their original language and translated into rather clumsy English (they have translated "Sabor de Pecado" as "Peach Flavor" for instance), as well as photos of Cesaria, who though she would not be classified as pretty, has an extraordinary strength and beauty in her face. Put it on when you are feeling sad, and feel it lift your spirits, and fill your heart with esperança e amor.

5.0 out of 5 stars A hugely exciting find, 26 Oct 2001
By A Customer
I'd agree with the 'Music Fan from Scotland'. I picked this up at an airport with my last Portuguese change and have been listening to it ever since. Cesaria Evora's voice is so rich, it floats across the tracks. Rhythmic, sad, uplifting.
