Music reviews of Adieu False Heart
Music Review: The ZoZo Sisters:Deep-Roots Folk With a Strong Cajun Flavor
Rating: 5 Stars
"Linda Ronstadt and Ann Savoy have been friends since they were introduced at Jazz Fest 15 or so years ago, and Ronstadt vividly recalls her first visit to Marc and Ann Savoy's farm outside Eunice for a boucherie. "Everybody's dancing and eating," she says. "I walked into her farmhouse and it's like Martha Stewart goes to the swamp for real. Ronstadt says that the music they create together is unique, somewhere in between an art song and folk music. For Savoy, the human voice is the best musical instrument, directly expressing heart and soul in a cappella songs that Ronstadt loved. Mere words cannot describe this CD, but delicate, tender, haunting, evocative, sensual and spiritual, spare and luxuriant, exotic and familiar: bittersweet-- lyrics that arrive at clarity in the face of irrecoverable loss, acceptance without consolation other than the recognition of our shared fate." David Simpson
Linda Ronstadt has been known as a diversified singer since the mid-80's when she was singing SoCal pop/rock, and teamed up with Nelson Riddle for one of her most listened to CD's. She heard Ann Savoy and her husband and wanted to sing Cajun music with her. Thus "Adieu False Heart" was born. Linda and Ann call themselves "The ZoZo Sisters", which means "Little Bird" in Creole French. My best friend introduced me to this CD, thank you. This is a special CD, with Acadian soul, he says, that expands our love of music. This is a CD sung effortlessly it seems and with heartfelt devotion to their craft. Both Linda Ronstadt and Ann Savoy take turns with the lead vocals, but it is the harmonizing that brings this CD to the heights of deliciousness. This CD is so well done that the broad range of material from Cajun songs, sometime sung in French patois can be interchanged easily to more pop songs sung with a folk/Cajun style.
"Opening"- Linda Ronstadt says that these songs are about people who have been in love and have had experiences in our lives. They're songs about deep expressions, things that have been thought out."
"Adieu False Heart" -this is a false love, a traitor, "Adieu false heart now we must part May the joys of the world go with you. I love you long with a faithful heart. But never anymore can I believe you"
"I Can't Get Over You "-a Julie Miller song of love lost-"I've watched as colors faded in the sun. The colors of my love stay true. I've been letting go now. I'm not holding on. I just can't get over you"
"Marie Mouri"- a poem written by a slave called "Marie Mouri." "When the day comes the sun is no longer there. When night comes there is no sleep for me. When people are happy I can no longer laugh. Marie is dead, Marie is dead".
"King Of Bohemia"- Richard Thompson wrote this song about his daughter who was going through difficult times-"Did your dreams die young. Were they too hard won? Did you reach too high and fall".
"Plus Tu Tournes"- Cajun tune, harmonized so well, you are tapping your feet.
"Go Away From My Window"-John Jacobs Niel's old song-"I'll go and tell my brothers. I'll tell my sister too. The reason why my heart is broke. Is on account of you"
"Burns' Supper"- a favorite of both Linda and Ann, an older man speaking-"What a newfound friend is honesty. To see ourselves as others see. To see the shy boy inside the man. Is that all I am, just starved of loving?"
"The One I Love Is Gone"-Bill Monroe's song of lost love- beautiful melody and a favorite of mine-"So I'll sigh, I'll cry. I'll even want to die. For the one I love is gone".
"Parlez-Moi D'amour"-French patois Cajun- "Speak to me of love.
Tell me those tender things again. Your beautiful speech. My heart is not tired of hearing it. I love you."
"Too Old To Die Young"- my best friend's favorite song-harmonizing at it's best-"I have had some real good friends. I thought would never die. But all I've got that's left of them. Are these teardrops in my eye"
"Walk Away Renee"- the old Left Bank's tune-full of sadness but powerful, Linda and Ann's single, and they make this song their own with a Cajun flavor--"From deep inside the tears I am forced to cry. From deep inside the pain I chose to hide."
This is a magnificent CD of love; lost, found, love of children, each other, friends, lovers, and finality. The Cajun/Folk roots bring a flavor of honesty and shared fate.
A CD to play again and again. Highly, Highly recommended.

Description of Adieu False Heart
16 great tracks together as the Zoso Sisters. One of my personal favorites!This teaming of Linda Ronstadt and Cajun folk traditionalist Ann Savoy, billing themselves as the Zozo Sisters, shows how wide is the musical range of bittersweetness. The harmonies and shared lead vocals offer a complementary contrast between Ronstadt's purity of tone and Savoy's more piquant expressiveness. The arrangements turn folk songs into art songs, drawing as much upon chamber strings as Cajun fiddle and accordion. There's an exquisite beauty to the vocals, but the real surprise is how well the album holds together, given a range of material that extends from Cajun songs in French patois to stellar material from Julie Miller ("I Can't Get Over You," with husband Buddy Miller on guitar) and Richard Thompson ("King of Bohemia," "Burns' Supper") to a disarming revival of the Left Banke's 1960s hit "Walk Away Renee." Among other highlights, "Go Away from My Window" provides a showcase for the upper register of Ronstadt's soprano, and Savoy's lead vocals on Bill Monroe's "The One I Love Is Gone" bring out the blues in bluegrass. --Don McLeese
