5.0 out of 5 stars The Very Best from The Very Best State of Brazil - Maranhão!, April 26, 2000

I am a big fan of Zeca Baleiro and this is one of his best albums. "Samba do Approach" is a good example of his creativity and versatility. The album has it all! Zeca Baleiro is the only artist I know that was able to combine the urban style with the northeastern rithms of Brazil without loosing his art essence. "Boi de Haxixe" brings up the folklore of Maranhão and is the poetic expression of a culture and a time that could only be capture by someone very sensible and passionate. I just love it !

5.0 out of 5 stars Extraordinary! The very best from Brazil, April 19, 2000

By

Zeca Baleiro is one of the greatest innovators of the Brazilian popular music. Native of Maranhao, a northern Brazilian state, he brings a sweep of fresh air and exquisite craftsmanship into song writing and composition. He also updtates, in a highly original fashion, the songs of others great Brazilian composers of the past such as Luis Gonzaga and more recently Martinho da Vila. He mixes regional old instruments such as the "rabeca" (the violin's poor cousin, but giving out a striking sound) with electric guitars and punching bass guitar plus remarkably precise percussion for a fantastic and creative new sound. There is punch to this album, and also beautiful poetry. Recording quality is impeccable. Zeca Baleiro came to stay, and the Brazilian popular music will only get better with the addition of such an original artist. You're gonna stomp your feet and go dancing around when listening to "Semba", the 4th track of this excellent album, a modernized "frevo" from the northern state of Pernambuco in Brazil. Just this track is worth the album. Open your critical ears and listen to "Vô Imbola'", I am sure you'll enjoy it!

On his second album, Zeca Baleiro comes to prove that he is one of the most talented Brazilian artist today, mixing traditional rhythms with new styles like hip hop, new age, etc. making a different and involving sound! I simply love this album!!
