Cesaria Evora

Posted over 2 years ago
This comes highly recommended by my mate Dave. I'm inclined to agree. From Cape Verde, I think. So nice mix of influences.

  3. Bartleby says Miss Cesaria Evora is a Goddess revered in France and elsewhere. Every one of her concerts in Paris I tried to go to were sold out 6 months in advance.
    "Sodade" is Cape Verdean creole and derives from the Portuguese "saudade" which evokes a certain sadness tinged with longing and wistfulness... It's the defining soul of the Portuguese people. It encompasses such range of feelings and consequently realities that it's untranslatable. See Wiki I've got some nice tunes of hers. See if I can find them and post.
