CD ReviewsActually 4-1/2 stars --- just behind the top displayed CD Geoff Brandt | Quintana Island, Texas USA | 04/10/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "Almost orgasmic --- they were known as The Girls From Bahia when I was playing them on a jazz radio station some 35 or so years ago; unable to speak/sing in English, they sang phoenetically written lyrics -- and they KNOCKED ME OUT as they continue to do today. The only differences are that they were kids back then with the tightest harmonics -- and now (so MANY years later) they're probably grandmothers. Still love 'em!!! They'll often start a song in unison, then, POW ---- they split = super-tight. It ain't "jazz" per se, BUT, much like OsCariocas, dynamite.
When we return again to Rio, doubt if we'd go out of our way to catch them "live" if they were performing -- they seem more a studio group for records - - - but, truly, to my ears, they are magnificent!! Chico's compositions and visiting talent are terrific. A wonderful addition to any collection." |
