Martha Veléz - Fiends and Angels (1969)

Nascida em Nova Iorque, Martha começou sua carreira de cantora no inicio dos anos 60, participando da banda The Gaslight Singers, depois desse momento decidiu segui sua carreira solo, sempre bem acompanhada de excelentes musicos.

Friends and Angels, seu primeiro disco, lançado em 1969 é uma prova disso, nesse disco Martha faz um blues marcado por metais, Hammond e gaita. A voz de Martha é maravilhosa e combina perfeitamente com a música, sem contar a listinha de amigos que participam do disco, entre eles Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, Brian Auger, Paul Kossoff e Mitch Mitchell.

A cantora ainda chegou a gravar mais 4 discos na decada de 70 e depois trabalhou nos cinemas nas decadas de 80 e 90.
Infelizmente só consegui esse arquivo ripado de vinil, com qualidade bem razoável, sendo que ocorre um pequeno pulo na música "It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry". Mas vale muito a pena ter esse registro!
