J.C. Caceres is a well known Argentinian composer, singer and pianist and a master of modern Tango. His conception of art and music make him an extremely unconventional artist, one almost impossible to classify, though there are many who regard him as South America's answer to Paolo Conte. Accompanied by Marcello Russillo on drums, Carlos "El Tero" Buschini on double bass and special guest Daniel Binelli on bandoneon. The music flows along both mysterious and concrete, evocative yet earthy, fiery and glacial at the same time, in a perfect balancing act between tradition and innovation.

San Telmo renasce del silencio (San Telmo is born again out of silence), according to what (for me) is the most gorgeous of the many gorgeous vocals on this CD. (The line figures in “Viva el cabdombe negro.”) If only.... I was just in BsAs for a week. I didn’t know abt this CD yet, since I sure didn’t hear it anywhere in the Argentine capital, as I also did not hear anything of the very accomplished group Otros Aires, also posted here recently. Could be my experience would have been less disheartening if I had been able to spend more time in the hipster Palermos. Mostly what I heard in eating places and other commercial establishments where you put up with what the "management" chooses was the most deplorable of U.S. soft rock. If a person were given to crying, a person could have cried. (But to return to the present CD: "South America's answer to Paolo Conte" -- in the blurb -- is pretty good.)
ReplyDeleteOne other thing abt this CD: No one will ever do "Que reste-t-il de nos amours" the way the great Charles Trenet did it -- and not just because it was his own song. But the version here in Spanish, under the title "Que es lo que queda," sure blows away the various English-language versions I have heard under the title "I Wish You Love." And it's good -- and it's surprising -- in its own right, forget the comparison with the English-language versions. I am not the press agent for this album. I would just like other people to find it and enjoy it.
