Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Like Billie Holiday, the Cape Verdean queen of morna--a slow, rhythmically balladic blend of African blues and the Portuguese fado--asked heartache to come in and set a spell. In fact, trouble and Cesaria Evora are longtime soulmates. This 1992 album (released in the U.S. in 1998) about nostalgia, longing, hit-and-run lovers, and the sea features titles like "Barbincour" ("The Conman") and "Torura" ("Torture"). It went gold in France, transforming the plump grandma diva of her West African island's beachside canteens into a world-music icon. Not the least of Evora's magical appeal is that those smooth, honey-rich vocals suggest a universe of passion and pain, with nary a spasm of self-pity to break the spell. --Elena Oumano

this is said to be her "best" album (disc). i don't know
if that is true, but it is fantastic.
it is a form/variation of fado that is most attractive,
and she is a beautiful singer.
a good reason to visit cape verde!
even if you don't smoke.
i find amazon a good provider.

4.0 out of 5 stars Warm, honeyed voice
Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2007

Cesaria Evora does some of her finest work here. Those who are familiar with her other recordings will recognize the minor-key modes and yearning quality typical of her style. The instrumental arrangements are intimate, not overwhelming, and always complement her inimitable voice. That said, after purchasing three of her CDs, I feel that I've exhausted this repertoire -- there is quite a bit of melodic and harmonic similarity among them -- and don't feel inclined to own a library of her work. For those who are new to Ms. Evora, this recording would provide a lovely introduction and summation of her art.

As a musician who has performed with, listen to and seen many of the class acts, I regret deeply that I never had the opportunity to have seen and heard Cesaria Evora in person. The voice, and earthy soul she gives her songs are like the cozy warmth of a fire-place and candles.

Soy fan de Cesaría Evora y el primero que pedí de prensado en vinil negro nunca me llegó. Y después pedí la edición en color blanco y es pésima grabación, la voz de cesaría se escucha muy saturada al grado de distorsionarla, lo devolví. Lastima por tan bien disco.

Herrliche entspannte Rhythmen. Für Cabrio, Sommernachtsfeiern und alle schönen Momente des Lebens. Gewichtig ohne zu schwer zu sein, bunt ohne oberflächlich zu wirken, Klavier, Harfe, Klarinette und alles was sonst Freude macht. Cesaria Evoras warme Stimme der ohnehin bereits sangesähnlichen Sprache Portugiesisch.
