Editorial Review::This album combines modern production with the unselfconsciousness of a field recording. The sophisticated music features rich arrangements and the encompassing voice of Downs, who sings in Spanish, Zapotec, Mayan and Mixtec. Born in Oaxaca to a Mexican mother and an American father, she grew up between the two countries, and her music blends blues, gospel, ranchera, bolero and opera. You can feel Downs' authority as she sings of humanity's birth from nature and of the people-red, brown, black and white. --Sule Greg Wilson

After discovering this extraordinary womam at WOMAD 2002 i was instantaneously hooked. Even though i have limited understanding of the Spanish language, what she is trying to say comes out through the shere brilliance of her music. This is one of the best records to make its way across the atlantic in recent times. A recommended buy.
