Zé Do Norte - Lua Bonita Mulher Rendeira

Review by Mirko Saini

Zé Do Norte's album "Lua Bonita Mulher Rendeira" is a beautiful tribute to the rich musical heritage of Brazil's Northeastern region. The album features a mix of traditional forró, baião, and xote rhythms, all infused with Zé Do Norte's signature style.

The album's title track "Lua Bonita" is a standout, with its catchy melody and irresistible rhythm. Other tracks like "Forró na Casa Grande" and "Xote da Saudade" showcase Zé Do Norte's virtuosity on the accordion, as well as his deep understanding of the region's musical traditions.

The album also features collaborations with other talented musicians, such as the vocal duo Os Nonatos on "Cantiga do Sertão" and the percussionist Zé da Flauta on "Baião da Serra". These collaborations add a wonderful depth and richness to the album.

"Lua Bonita Mulher Rendeira" is a must-listen for anyone interested in Brazilian music, particularly the rich and diverse sounds of the Northeastern region. Zé Do Norte's masterful accordion playing and his deep knowledge of the region's musical traditions make this album a true gem.
