 Waldemar Bastos - Renascence / RootsWorld Recording Review   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Things are better there now (though far from idyllic), so Bastos' new disc takes on a feel of cautious celebration and, as the name suggests, rebirth.
Bastos' style has evolved to sound less specifically Angolan than, say, Bonga, embracing some lightly funky songs with subtly swelling horns and a goodly amount of guitar and general structuring that sounds distinctly Congolese (Bastos was actually born on the Angola/Congo border) in addition to the kind of Afro-Portuguese sway heard in Brazilian music.
Vocally, Bastos is in prime shape, sounding suitably invigorated and not letting his naturally warm tones veer off into any excesses.
