I saw on TV (french TV), last week, a documentary about the life and the career of Catarina Valente. There was part of shows she performed and it was unbelievable to see the likeness with vocals performances and music of Basia. Catarina Valente speaks and sings in 12 langages. She danced and moved on the scene (unlike Basia) and the shows looked like some american revival show of the seventies. She appears as a working and voluntary artist. Just like our diva...I mean....well...I would say...in a prolific period :((( Faf (from south of France).

Yes she was a great performer. One of her biggest hit in america was "The breeze and I". that was a million seller. I would agree with you there are many similarities. Her voice is also very similiar to Basia's. She sang many spanish songs and her caree spanned about 20 years from the 50's to the late 60's I believe. She was definately a diva of the early 60's. denis with one "N" ------------------------------ End of basia-digest V6 #14 **************************
