CD Reviews

The best samba CD, ever. Really.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I taped this from a friend back in the 80s and never stopped listening to it. I was so happy when it came out on CD. If you have to have just one samba record, this is it. Over the years I have shared it with many people and they have all been struck by just how damn great it is.Great relaxed feeling, beautiful, understated arrangements, incredible singing from these great composers, all "bambas"..."
Beautiful acoustic sambas!

"One of those dazzlingly great, understated acoustic samba albums that seem to slide under the radar as Brazilian fancies are turned elsewhere... This album originally came out at the height of the MPB years, although there was also a resurgent "pagode" samba revival going on, which this disc fits into quite nicely. At any rate, the four old-timers who made up this ensemble are all impressive figures on their own: Nelson Cavaquinho, Candeia, Guilhereme de Brito and Elton Medieiros all back each other up as they trade off on vocals. It's a beautiful record, worth tracking down, especially if you enjoyed recent albums such as the Velha Guarda da Portela discs... Recommended!"
