 Achinoam Nini is also known in
Europe and America as Noa. I got her first album, which was a live album, in 1991, and was
amazed at her wonderful voice and the amazing arrangements of her songs. Then, she
released her second album that is her best so far: I think that this second album is
musically and technically at the top of whatever is possible to produce these days. At the
same time, in Europe they released her first English album, entitled "Noa"
(short for Achinoam). The English album became very popular in Europe, and especially in
France, almost two years later!!! Anyway, Achinoam Nini released a second English album, "Calling"
in 1996 and which is her least accomplished work (in other words, it sucks!!!). Last year,
Achinoam came out with a new Hebrew album that, despite a hideous cover, was not too bad.
Fortunately, this year, Achinoam came back to her senses and made a wonderful album (with
a gorgeous picture on the cover!) with the Philarmonic Orchestra of Israel. Achinoam is
too gifted to waste her time and talent doing boring pseudo new pop rock albums (although
I think that it's great that she tried new genres). I need to mention that Gil Dor is her
musical partner, playing the guitar and doing arrangements and that he is himself a lump
of talent! Her place is at the very top and she needs to more recording like the second
album and this last Philarmonic one!!! |
