Review

Quiet, initially released by Indipop in 1984, marks vocalist Sheila Chandra's departure from the pop dance-beat style of her work with Monsoon, and lays the foundation for her successive recordings. These 10 pieces of a cycle (entitled Quiet 1-10) are layer upon layer of traditional Indian instrumentation coupled with Chandra's now trademark wordless vocals. Even at this stage in her early development and musical collaboration with Martin Smith and her husband Steve Coe, Chandra's exotic voicing registers as something quite special. Not as nuanced or centered as later work like AboneCroneDrone or Zen Kiss, Quiet remains an ambitious and innovative selection in what would become world music. --Paige La Grone
