5.0 out of 5 stars An 80's Brazilian pop classic digitally remastered at last, December 29, 2003

At last Ivan Lins' 1981 "Daquilo Que Eu Sei" is out on CD. Top-notch digital remastering reveals new detail in Gilson Peranzetta's eclectic pop/rock/jazz arrangements.

This is neither samba nor bossa nova, but MPB (Musica Popular Brasileiro), akin to the sounds of Milton Nascimento, Caetano Veloso and others. Lins pens ingenious changes, and several songs from his large catalog have become world standards.

More than any other Ivan Lins album, "Daquilo Que Eu Sei" puts tasty choral singing up front, with lyrics by longtime collaborator Vitor Martins, who also plays bass on the album. Lins and Peranzetta both play keyboards, with Ivan's catchy hooks supported by Gilson's schooled pianism.

I'm so delighted to find this available on CD! After wearing out the LP, I burned it in a hideous transfer to mp3. Every time I listen to it, it's such a delight musically and such a disappointment sonically. This album and the one released two years later, Juntos, were a fixture in my life when they came out. Ivan guy creates absolutely transcendent pop music. There's probably a half-dozen from the 80's that are wort the effort to track down.

If I had not checked back again today, I might not have known for another 2 years that it was available again. Whew!
