Review by Cassandra Highers

Umiljne Oči Tvoje Mico Pjevačico is a stunning album by Vinka Ellesin and Tam Zbor "Neven." The album features a collection of traditional Croatian folk songs that are beautifully arranged and performed by the talented musicians.

The album opens with the title track, "Umiljne Oči Tvoje," which is a lively and upbeat song that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The vocals are clear and powerful, and the instrumentation is superb, with the accordion, tamburica, and violin all blending together beautifully.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Kad Ja Podoh Na Bembašu," which is a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases the emotional depth and range of Vinka Ellesin's voice. The song is accompanied by a simple yet effective arrangement of tamburica and violin, which perfectly complements the vocals.

Another highlight of the album is "Kad Sam Bio Mlad," a nostalgic and wistful song that captures the essence of Croatian folk music. The vocals are heartfelt and emotive, and the instrumentation is understated yet evocative, with the accordion and tamburica providing a gentle and soothing accompaniment.

About Vinka Ellesin And Tam Zbor "Neven"

Vinka Ellesin was a folk singer who sang Serbian music in the sevdalinka style. The national Serbian community referred to her as the Queen of Sevdalinka. She was born to Serbian immigrants, Djoka and Sophia (Soka) Ellesin, in Akron, Ohio around 1921. By the age of 16, she was singing on a nationally broadcast radio show on WADC. Later, she performed at the Black Whale, a well-known club in Cleveland. In 1938, the bandleader Sammy Kaye invited her to audition to be the lead vocalist in his orchestra, but she turned him down, preferring to continue singing Serbian folk music instead. During World War II, Ellesin performed at the Blue Danube and the Russian Samovar in Detroit, Mich. where she lived. Ellesin stayed in the Pittsburgh area for an extended period of time in the early 1950s while she performed nightly at the Sunrise Inn in Monroeville, Pa. During the 1930s through the 1970s, Ellesin toured throughout North America and Australia while returning to Pittsburgh many times to perform at local Serb National Federation events.
