I like Antonio Carlos Jobim a lot. This album especially. The music is just as cool, dreamy and sophisticated as the cover.
 
Jobim did some great music with Elis Regina as well.

I didn't read it, A. but since Caetano always wanted to be a film-maker it should be written like a screenplay (like many of his songs too). If it was the case it may sound interesting and since either languages are so close ther translator may have kept the spirit fo the book.

Nice to remind the Mamonas, fungus!  Sad that the 5 band members died the same day (air crash) just when they were in their career peak. Cry

Of course it is, Pro... they get inspiration from our folk and pop-rock too.  Smile The drums in 'Roots, bloody roots' have a noticeable Brazilian touch, for instance.

Reviving this topic to post a new name in the Brazilian music scene: Vander Lee.
 
He sings a beautiful song... "Do Brasil". I recommend (a prog-related arrangement, indeed).

Not a brazilian artist but Cannonball Adderley had great fascination for the brazilian music scene
 
 
Not really a samba as the title suggests.
