CD Reviews

Fantastic compilation of Brazilian music
Steve Frazier | Seattle | 09/25/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Your Brazilian music collection can start right here. Just download this album, enjoy it, and then explore each of the artists highlighted here.



David Byrne put this compilation together in the late 80's, exploring some of the key artists of the Brazilian scene. This is not the Bossa Nova music of the early 60's -- it's mainly from the next generation of artists that grew up in the late 60's and became successful in the 70's onward.



Every track here is a classic, and every artist is a master. It's a hugely enjoyable listen that I come back to over and over, and it's a compilation that introduced me to some great artists.



There are several other albums in this series -- all are worth buying.

This CD never gets old
A. Clauss | Triad Area of NC United States | 02/15/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I've owned this CD for almost 20 years, and it's still one of my favorites. "Ponta de Lança Africano" is a track that I could listen to again and again if I were trapped on an island. This album introduced Brazilian music to me, and that alone is reason enough for everyone to own it."
