Miss Perfumado
Cesaria Evora
Released:
Jan 1992
Label:
Windham Hill/BMG Heritage
One of the most consistently enjoyable albums Evora has ever released. Spared some of the unnecessary languor of later works, Miss Perfumado has a refreshingly immediate feel, and although it drips with sodade (longing), there's a lightness of spirit that's utterly ravishing. The classics are here, but literally every song is a joy to behold.
