5.0 out of 5 stars 8th Wonder of the World?, May 16, 2007
By 
This review is from: Gil Luminoso (Audio CD)
It's entirely possible that someone, somewhere, at some time, has created a recording of greater honesty, peace, and pure musical achievement than this one--I just haven't heard it yet.

Gil is a musical prophet, statesman, and healer; I regard this record as one of the greatest artistic achievements of humankind.

To know that a human being currently residing on the planet is capable of this is comforting and inspiring to me more than words could possibly convey.

This review is from: Gil Luminoso (Audio CD)
This is my first Gilberto Gil album, so I'm not familiar with his other recordings and cannot make comparisons. I can only say that I found this recording to be totally enchanting and when I listen I feel happy, de-stressed, profoundly moved, and in awe of this masterful performer. Not crazy about the cover, but don't judge the book by its cover!

5.0 out of 5 stars Natural Genius, June 1, 2007
By 
This review is from: Gil Luminoso (Audio CD)
Agreed with David McKinney's review fully. Caetano's quote in the liner notes says it all: "Gil believes in God. I believe in him."

This man Gil in my estimation stands with Mother Teresa, Vaclav Havel, Martin Luther King....it's no wonder that Brazilians burst into tears when he appears....his songs have the same effect on me and I can hardly speak a lick of Portuguese!
