Yep I like Bebel, too bad about that first cut on the disc...along those lines give a listen to early Brasil66, Lani Hall's voice is what Sade's has always wanted to be. Not to slag Sade 'cause I think she blows norah outta the water. not very impressed with norah, could be after some maturing she'll deliver
Better than Norah Jones...?
Ok here is a recommendation,an album I meant to buy for the girlfriend for a while (since 2002!) but just got round to this week.
To my ears,lighter but more substantial overall than Ms Jones mega succesful CD.
Light,Latin a bit jazzy mostly in Brazilian but very accessable and contemporary sounding without being over done.......
Audiogon,get to hear,take a chance and buy the lovely female vocals of..........
Bebel Gilberto-Tanto Tempo. (East West 0927-47407)
Rave reviews from Mojo,Blues& Soul,The Independent and The London Evening Standard,Q Magazine and a drunken Glaswegian.
Very much a summer record and whisper it better recorded than Norah Jones imho.
