This review is from: 50 Anos (Audio CD)

A glitzy collection of material written by Aldir Blanc, who is best known as Joao Bosco's main creative partner in the 1970s, and one of Elis Regina's favorite songwriters. It's an all-star cast on this one: Blanc himself plays on about a third of the album, and is also feted by Edu Lobo, Ivan Lins, Paulinho Da Viola, Leila Pinheiro and the Caymmi kids, as well as a slew of lesser-known samba and MPB performers. The straight samba material is pretty nice; the swankier jazz-tinged material can be a bit much. It's a mixed bag, but a very nice introduction to his work.
