5.0 out of 5 stars
A beautiful pre-tropicalia Brazilian pop gem,
By DJ Joe Sixpack (...in Middle America) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)
This review is from: Edu & Bethania (Audio CD)
An absolutely gorgeous Brazilian pop album from the mid-1960s, which pairs budding Carioca composer Edu Lobo with the young Maria Bethania, future diva supreme. He provides the arrangements and backing band, they each take turns singing lead vocals and duet on several songs. Even in 1966, Bethania's voice was fully formed: husky, authoritative, and instantly recognizable. Lobo's later work would be more experimental, but this catches him early on, so his bossa nova compositions retain beautiful, crystalline simplicity. One of the jewels in the Elenco label collection... highly recommended!
