Amazon.com Armed with a tape recorder, Portuguese chanteuse Dulce Pontes wandered her native country collecting sonic inspiration for her fifth and finest recording, O Primeiro Canto. Deeply influenced by fado, contemporary, and traditional folk song, Pontes approached this recording nakedly, distilling its sound to that of strictly acoustic accompaniment, a bold move which allows her superbly crystalline vocals to weave the album's through-line. Far more enamored with passion and tactility rather than technique, Pontes organically creates a holistic emotional posture that is malleable, romantic, and sensually awake, suffering not from lack of finesse. Pontes is in possession of a remarkably facile gift: a voice which rings true with each gorgeously stunning note. --Paige La Grone
