Great album
Badi Fan | California | 09/22/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Badi Assad is an unique and heartfelt Portugese and English artist from Brazil, and one of their most talented performers, whose latest album Verde was just released last week. With a captivating voice and terrific classical guitar, clarinet, and percussion skills, her creativity, emotions, and personality definetly shows on the different tracks of her records and allows her to stand out from other artists out there. It is difficult to classify her type of music since it is a mix of latin, jazz, classical, and bossa nova. Each song on her album has a different feel, from soothing and relaxing to playful and upbeat, which in turn gives a little something for everyone who listens to her records. The song "One" by U2 and "Bachelorette" by Bjork are also covered on her album. Badi has also been named "Best Acoustic Fingerstyle Player" and for having the "Best Classical Album of the Year" by Guitar Player Magazine. Check her out at http://www.badiassad.com for clips of her songs and videos and for furthur information."
One of my faves!

"Travelling through germany in April, I happened to see Badi Assad's name on a poster in Munich. Had bought two of her CDs in the past (solo and chameleon) but never seen her live. Turns out she was touring to release Verde. My luck!! It was a solo show, but (wow!) she alone filled the place with sound... it could have been a whole orchestra. She can play guitar with the best, her voice is captivating, and when she goes into mouth or body percussion, your jaw drops. I bought Verde at the show and it's been one of my favorites ever since. The CD has various other musicians playing along with her (cello, clarinet, percussion, bass, among others) all of whom blend perfectly with badi. Very well produced. Love it! Not your typical samba/ bossanova brazilian vocal CD; Badi is one of the best things to come out of Brasil."

"With undeniable skills, Badi will surely gain new listeners. One of my favorites is track #3, "One." Two others I like and can listen to over and over is "Estrangeiro em mim" and "Valse D' Amelia." Listen carefully because each song tells a story-either vocally or musically. The multi-talented artist gives listeners an ear full.



If you're looking for something new and different, take a chance and give this 14 track CD a chance.
