5.0 out of 5 stars old school samba genius, October 9, 2002

This review is from: Velha Guarda da Portela - Tudo Azul (Audio CD)

Pop star Marisa Monte earned more than a little praise in serious samba circles for producing this perfect album of Portela samba school's elder members. With guest vocals by Marisa, Paulinho da Viola, and Cristina Buarque, there's plenty of variety without taking the spotlight away from the Velha Guarda. Songs by Portela stars like Monarco are featured in backyard-style arrangements: one cavaquinho, one pandeiro, one guitar, and not much else. If you love REAL samba, don't hesitate to grab this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Classic, February 10, 2006

I bought this album when it was first published in Brazil and found out it had the rare virtue in music that you can listen to it over and over again without getting tired of it. Those original, authentic carioca sambas invite you just to listen to them quitely or even dance to some of the songs, all while letting yourself inspire and comfort by their authors' savoir-vivre. You will get even more out of them if you understand Portuguese.
