After a remix album that featured collaborations with celebrated electronica acts (including Manitoba and Telepopmusik), Portugal's Madredeus returned to a more organic sound for 2005's FALUAS DO TEJO. Here Teresa Salgueiro's high, clear voice perfectly complements the lilting music, which is steeped in delicate acoustic-guitar lines (courtesy of key members Jose Peixoto and Pedro Ayres Magalhaes) and light synthesizer textures. The opening song, "Lisboa, Rainha Do Mar," conjures up a gently swaying nautical atmosphere, while "Fado Das Duvidas" is a beautifully melancholy example of the traditional "fado" style. A quiet, pensive mood pervades the record, as revealed on the gorgeous, waltz-like title track and the achingly emotive "Cais Distante." Bossa nova and flamenco accents also drift through on occasion, making this an album that can't be pigeonholed by one Latin style. For a wonderful example of roots-minded Portuguese music with a subtle modern flair, Madredeus's FALUAS DO TEJO is ideal.

Madredeus: Teresa Salgueiro (vocals); Jose Peixoto, Pedro Ayres Magalhaes (guitar); Carlos Maria Trindade (synthesizer); Fernando Judice (acoustic bass guitar).

Recording information: Garate Studios, San Sebastian, Spain; Xangoritab Studios, Lisbon (2004).

Pink Martini Splendor In The Grass CD  (2009) Digipak

Faluas Do Tejo
CD $13.14  SALE Top 100 Audio Samples
Pink Martini follow the around-the-world-in-a-dozen-songs thrills of HEY EUGENE! with SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS, a mellower, simpler set of small pleasures. These are relative terms, however; the group's music is still well-traveled, with China Forbes singing in five languages (English, Spanish, Neapolitan, French, and Italian) instead of the six or so on EUGENE!. However, Pink Martini opt for a more unified sound here, one that draws on the more straightforward lounge-pop of their debut, SYMPATHIQUE, and the mellowness of '60s and '70s pop. SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS' first half is especially smooth, opening with the beautifully soft Neapolitan ballad "Ninna Nanna" and the title track, on which Forbes sings "I think we should take it slow" over swooping strings, brass, and piano that resurrect the glory days of AM pop; that feeling is echoed by the cover of Joe Raposo's "Sing," the Sesame Street song that gained popularity when the Carpenters performed it (Emilio Delgado, aka Sesame Street's Luis, duets with Forbes here in Spanish and English). The album's first few tracks are among its most playful, including the slinky yet winking "Ohayoo Ohio" and the French confection "Ou Est Ma Tete?" While Pink Martini gets almost too cute for their own good with "And Then You're Gone" and "But Now I'm Back," a pair of songs about a quarreling couple inspired by Franz Schubert's "Fantasy Piano for Four Hands" and featuring NPR justice correspondent Ari Shapiro on the latter's vocals, SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS' second half is among their finest work. "Over ...

Ry Cooder Chavez Ravine CD  (2005)

Faluas Do Tejo
CD $17.89  4.8 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
In the wake of the tremendous impact of the BUENA VISTA SOCIAL CLUB album, film, and tour, it is easy to see Ry Cooder as a historian, a cultural ambassador, and a gifted humanist interested in revitalizing all people through music. If this sounds like an overstatement, you probably haven't heard 2005's CHAVEZ RAVINE yet. Like BUENA VISTA, CHAVEZ RAVINE locates itself in a cultural and musical context, this time in a vibrant, culturally rich Mexican-American community in post-war Los Angeles. With help from musicians associated with the era and location (including Don Tosti, Lalo Guerrero, and Thee Midnighters' Little Willie G.) and studio musicians Jim Keltner, Jon Hassell, and legendary Tex-Mex accordionist Flaco Jimenez, Cooder has created a musical novel that richly celebrates the music, life, and lingering mythos of Chavez Ravine, an L.A. neighborhood razed by the city in the interest of big business (namely to build a stadium for the soon-to-be L.A. Dodgers). Stylistically, the album, performed in both Spanish and English, encompasses Latin folk forms, swing, atmospheric ballads, rhumba, and R&B. Yet the whole feels so rooted in history, so packed with real characters (like boxer Carlos Chavez) and stories (like a Pachuco-slang-speaking UFO sighting) that it plays as an organic whole. Playful, poignant, historically significant, ...

Francoise Hardy Vogue Years CD  (2001) (Import) Remastered; Germany

Faluas Do Tejo
CD $14.45  3 stars Top 100
French chanteuse Francoise Hardy gets her yesars with the Vogue label covered in this extensive collection; includes 50 tracks and original artwork. More so even than her countryman and fellow pop star Serge Gainsbourg did in the 1960s, Francoise Hardy synthesized mainstream pop and rock elements into her take on the French chanson tradition. Influenced by Phil Spector's girl-group sound and the loungy, orchestral pop of commercial radio, Hardy's music of the 1960s is dense and breezy at once, marked by lush, hip production and the chanteuse's measured, bittersweet vocals. BMG's superb two-disc set, THE VOGUE YEARS, compiles Hardy's work for Vogue during the '60s. With a whopping 50 tracks, well-selected and arranged chronologically, the set provides an excellent overview of the singer's early work, and her maturation during this pivotal period. Everything else about the package--from the liner notes to the vintage photos to the immaculately remastered sound--shines ...
