    Check out Lila Downs new CD titled “Shake Away.” She covers Lucinda’s “I Envy The Wind” in both English and Spanish (“Yo Envidio el Viento”). The rest of Lila’s CD is awesome too! Here’s the review on All Music Guide: http://www.allmusicguide.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:kifexzrkldke

    I highly recommend seeing Lila Downs Live. Her shows are always great! She’s intense, intelligent, and passionate about her music. Just like Lucinda. Also, don’t worry if you don’t speak Spanish, she translates very well. Plus, she’s been performing Lu’s “Yo Envidio el Viento” (I Envy The Wind). You can buy that song and her new CD on iTunes now.
