Pedro said that the '99 tour should play "O Paraiso" (or should we say "O Porto"?) with some others old songs which a lot of Madredeus fans desire. Wait and see
 

Here is a BOMB!!!!!!!

These are the latest news regarding Madredeus. Fasten your seatbelt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

* The latest album by Carlos Nunez have Teresa Salgueiro as guest!
The album is entitled "Os amores libres".

Gabriel Gomes, after quitting Madredeus, has reunited with Rodrigo Leão and Francisco Ribeiro during the summer of 1997. They lived together for several weeks in Ericeira, a small fishing village some kilometeres north of Lisbon, and there they composed the music for «Os Poetas» album, which  is entitled «Entre Nós e as Palavras» (Between us and the words, ed. Sony Music Portugal, December 1997). In it, the music goes along with, and sublimates, the voices of several portuguese poets reciting their works, which were recorded in the early 1960's. It took some time, and a lot of patience, to convert those recordings into something that would suit the digital age and António Pinheiro da Silva was the responsable for it.

*  Since then, Rodrigo and Gabriel have recorded the new Sétima Legião album - which is supposed to come out next February and will surprise most of the bands fans (they haven't recorded for the last five or six years, and the new work follows a totally different approach to their usual universe...)

**   About Madredeus, you'll be glad to hear that, following a year's long pause and the birth of Teresa's baby, the band has already started rehearsing the NEW  SONGS that will be recorded sometime during the next year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*  Here are the result of the Poll on this site regarding the best album of Madredeus:

1°  "O Espirito da Paz"          34%
2°  "O Paraiso"                       29%
3°  "Ainda"                              26%
4°  "Existir"                             19%
5°  "Lisboa"                             15%
6°  "O Porto"                           14%
7°  "Os Dias da Madredeus"   13%

    This statistics have been valued on 100 opinions gathered in this site along some months... It is very interesting for many reasons

*  Teresa Salgueiro had the child. It is a girl and her name is Ines, Ines Machado Salgueiro.

*  José Peixoto has just released his «A Vida de Um Dia» solo album. It must be buyed, OK?
