{"product_id":"baca-susana-eco-de-sombras-0724384891220","title":"Eco de Sombras","description":"In her Spanish-language songs about love, heritage, and slavery days, Susana Baca elevates the nearly extinct Afro-Peruvian blues--its sambas, landos, and alcatraz rhythms--to high art. Like Bahia diva Virginia Rodrigues or Cape Verde morna singer Cesaria Evora, Baca is part of a new generation of international female vocalists who take an almost chamber-music approach to their respective styles. On this album, that means augmenting her usual band with such musical guests as keyboardist John Medeski (of Medeski Martin \u0026amp; Wood) and electric guitarist Marc Ribot (Los Cubanos Postizos), who add almost imperceptible instrumental shimmers to her band's understated yet undeniably robust (and often Cuban-flavored) grooves. Like the blues, Baca's resonant lamentations, sung in a voice reminiscent of antique bamboo, transcend sadness with deeper and subtler emotional flavors. --Richard Gehr","brand":"Virgin (Virgin (EMI))","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53448549925206,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_0724384891220_1.jpg?v=1778012373","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/baca-susana-eco-de-sombras-0724384891220","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
