Portugese jazz/contemporary group Vozes Da Radio's first album 'Burxas, Herois & Males D'Amor' ('Witches, Heroes and Love Pains'), recorded in 1995, is mostly a cappella, mostly original, with all arrangements by the group. Considered one of the ten best CD's of the year by the Portugese newspaper 'Publico,' the group is well-known in their country and shares the bill at stadiums venues with pop and rock bands. The ballad 'Ternura,' accompanied by solo guitar, is one of their most-requested songs. In general their sound is vocal bass intensive, homophonic, with a natural vocal approach and minimal production or effects. Transcending the typical pop triads with non-diatonic chords and inversions, they have crafted an appealing adult contemporary style. |
