Tete Montoliu Presenta Elia Fleta is an album by pianist Tete Montoliu and vocalist Elia Fleta recorded in 1966 and originally released on the Spanish label, Concentric as two separate 7-inch EPs before being collected on CD on the Fresh Sound label in 1989.[1] [2]
Ken Dryden of AllMusic said "Blind Catalonian pianist Tete Montoliu evidently introduced singer Elia Fleta on this 1966 session, but it could have been a more interesting date if the pianist had been showcased a bit more. Fleta has a pleasant voice, even if her vocals sung in English are a bit heavily accented and she has a tendency to overdo things at times. Montoliu is flawless in his role as accompanist, though with each performance running under three minutes, there is little exposure for any of them".
