"sometimes when you buy a cd without having heard anything about it or having just read a brief review of it, the end result does not live up to one's expectations. not the case with "quiet skies" by pauline london. don't be misled by the name because pauline is neither british nor from london. she's paola and 100% italian. this cd keeps in theme with that italian, brazilian retro-funk vibe. it's difficult to classify this music other than to say it's stunning. track 6 is the standout with portugese vocals and thumping percussion and wispy flute. i purchase a lot of music and once in a great while a cd comes along that leaves you breathless like emma bunton's "free me" or incognito's "adventures in black sunshine." the same can be said for pauline london's "quiet skies.""
