The Living Road, the follow-up to her 1998 debut, features her smoky vocals (in French, English, and Spanish) in front with wonderfully understated support that draws upon Mexican folk styles, French chansons, Spanish ballads, and modern-sounding songwriters like Joe Henry or Jim White. The accompaniment is exceptional, but it's Lhasa's voice and lyrics that set her apart. Whereas fellow Mexican-American singer Lila Downs dives into large cultural and political issues, this modern-day torch singer sings about intensely personal experiences and inner thoughts--much of the lyrics are sung in the first person or directed toward another, as if she's writing a letter to a lover. Her sensual phrasing perfectly fits the intimate subject matter, particularly when she sings in French, while her husky timbre exudes inner strength that beyond question. Six years is a long time between albums, but The Living Road was worth the wait. --Tad Hendrickson\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProduct description\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSongs Include : Con Toda Palabra \/ La Maree Haute \/ Antwherer On This Road \/ Abro La Ventana \/ Jarrive A La Ville \/ La Frontera \/ La Confession \/ Small Song \/ My Name \/ Pallegar A Tu Lado \/ Para El Fin Del Mundo O El Ano Nuevo \/ Soon This Space Will Be Too Small, ISBN13: B0002JE90Q ISBN10: B0002JE90Q Material Type: audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46108815622307,"sku":"FA_05-13-2025_MGM_200009F6","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/81TDjTQvvSL.jpg?v=1754559285","url":"https:\/\/usedbookdepot.com\/products\/living-rd","provider":"Used Book Depot","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
