Review

Brazil is a country rich on pop vocalists--and seemingly producing talented new ones every day. Yet Elis Regina Carvalho da Costa (1945-1982) remains the impossible standard to which they can only look up. A lithe but strong voice, impeccable enunciation, precise phrasing, complete control of color and nuance, easy sense of swing, power--Regina had it all. Listen to the poignancy of "Outro Cais" (Another Pier) and "So Deus e Quem Sabe" (Only God Knows), her blues- like grit in "O Trem Azul" (The Blue Train), or her power in the elegiac "O Que Foi Feito Devera" (De Vera) (sung with Milton Nascimento). Then be surprised by her bright, exact, playful singing in "Calcanhar de Aquiles" (Achilles's Heel) or "Sai Dessa" (Get Off It). Some of the instrumental parts may sound quaintly dated (the electric pianos, the rock guitars) but her voice and her singing is timeless. --Fernando Gonzalez
