Zahara "Santa" (p) G.O.Z.Z. Records
The new album of Ubeda native Zahara Gordillo Campos (the musician, the actress, the photo model, and the one of the most beautiful creatures in the world history) is definitely the most diversified one in her back catalogue. If Zahara's previous works more or less followed the female singer/songwriters' classic 'a girl + guitar + small backing band' pattern then "Santa" has a lot of influences in itself that can be extracted and categorized. So I'd say that "Santa" is a plate where "Crash", "Deshielo" and the title track are the upbeat and sparkling rockers paired to pure 80's pop hits "Oh Salvaje" and "Caída Libre" before being mixed in with "Inmaculada Decepcion" and "Donde Habitan Los Monstruos" that are the modern rock songs whose vibe depends more on digital effects and pulsing rhythm than on guitars - and don't forget about acoustic folk pieces "La Gracia" and "El Frio".
It's a pure artistic achievent that these seemingly detached elements and details are amalgamated into one solid entity that you can listen to without any feelings of 'there are some parts missing' or 'too much for me' kind.
But what makes this cool album really great is "Bestiario" - the second disc included into the deluxe edition of "Santa". Consisting of demo tracks as well as the live and acoustic versions, "Bestiario" shows that Zahara's songs are working perfectly even being stripped down to the core and peeled off of any studio production gloss.
