4.0 out of 5 stars
After a couple others of their CDs, this - -, April 10, 2007
This review is from: Vinicius Em Cy (Audio CD)
As noted before, 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!!
