2 1/2Warmly exotic but rarely gripping downtempo has a hint of unique positivity but ultimately feels too boxed in to provide said liberation.

I don't know what this guy thinks.Maybe just cause his brother is making it big he thinks he can too. He's wrong. He'll never make it to the top.Just my 2 cents

Great CD, her breathy voice is unique. What is incredible and greatly remarkable is that it has been 50 years since the time she recorded these and other songs and despite the fact we have six billion people in the planet, there has never been anyone trying to imitate her, Wow !! and why? because it is not easy, she sings very happy songs with a melancholic buy cute sexy voice ! how can you explain that?She gets better when Walter Wanderley plays the organ in the background for her. If you like Jazz, Samba, Bossa Nova and tropical songs, this is a CD you must get. Also get Walter Wanderley records.

I mainly purchased this CD for the Hamilton Joe Frank & Reynolds song "Fallin in Love" which for some reason was left off their Greatest Hits compilation? The version on this CD IS NOT the same version that was originally released back in the 70's. The song sounds flat and without the great music so I am very disappointed. Also the remaining songs by Freddy Fender and the other artists are poor choices to reflect the great music of that year.

I read about one third of this book before giving up. The subject is very interesting, but the writing style is complex, confused and hard to follow. The author uses rare words for their own sake not for clarity. The sentence construction is obtuse and unclear. He seems to be trying to impress as an intellectual, but he fails to present a clear picture of what happened and when. Michael Burleigh badly needs to meet Rudolf Flesch.

This is trenchant, demanding, totally depressing. I found myself defeated by this book early on. It was like an avalanche. Nor do I find the view that Nazism=a religion very enlightening, short of being an obvious comparison. I guess I just don't have the heart to go through this book, right now.
