5.0 out of 5 stars A Brazilian bossa nova classic!, January 27, 2003

This review is from: Live in Buenos Aires (Audio CD)

An excellent reissue of the first classic, early '70s collaborations between Vinicius de Moraes, the Brazilian poet/lyricist whose play "Orfeu" helped launch the bossa nova explosion of the early 1960s (and which was adapted into the movie "Black Orpheus") and acoustic guitar genius Toquinho. The two met while working in Argentina, and staged the popular early '70s concert show known as "La Fusa," which is where this material comes from. It's beautiful latter-day bossa nova material, combining the soft, understated beauty of Vinicius' lyrics and Toquinho's driving, but equally restrained accompaniment. There are several limited edition CDs that have recaptured the excitement of these shows, including later versons with Brazilian MPB diva Maria Bethania, who later replaced Creuza as the trio's "girl" singer... This new US reissue has great sound quality, and it definitely worth tracking down!

5.0 out of 5 stars "Vinicus en la Fusa" with Toquinho and Maria Bethania, March 15, 2005

This review is from: Live in Buenos Aires (Audio CD)

This album was recorded in 1970 in Buenos Aires in a bar named "La Fusa". La fusa was maybe the creator of a bar-style in Buenos Aires called "cafe concert" where musicians would go and perform live; New Orleans style if you like but with latin american music. Vinicius on the other hand a fantastic musician was much appreciated in Argentina and so he went there many times. This record perpetuates a night of bossa in Buenos Aires with Vinicius Toquinho and Maria Bethania.
