Terry Lee Hale @ Candelabro



Ninety minutes of "sad" songs with a "happy melody" and "happy-sad songs" was what Terry Lee Hale in a "corner bar" called Café Candelabro in Porto. Songwriting is often at its best when it is about personal storytelling, as was often the case here. Songs such as Black Cloud or Black Forest Phone Call guided us beautiful and poignantly through the singer-songwrite's life. Guitar and voice was all it took Hale to render an intimate, superb concert.
