Translated as Argentine Women, this 1991 reissue is very simply produced with Hector Zeoli playing organ and the composer Ariel Ramirez playing piano and clavier (which has a harpsichord-like sound). Each song, with lyrics by Felix Luna, describes a heroic woman who fought for her country's freedom. Small descriptions (in Spanish) accompany each song, such as Gringa Chaquena, Alfonsina Y El Mar, Maneula La Tucamana and Dorotea, La Cautiva. Of course, Mercedes' majestic dusky jewel of a voice sounds wonderful in any setting, but I especially liked the unusual sounds found here; recommended!"
