5.0 out of 5 stars Best Brazilian collection of all times, June 2, 2008

By	Daniel Waisberg (Israel) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Vinicius de Moraes is probably the greatest Brazilian poet and musician of all times. I have grown up listening to him, his songs are deep and calming.

He was the link between the old guard of poets and the new generation song writers and singers. While he was a friend of great poets like Manuel Bandeira, he was also a friend/partner of new singers (at that time) like Toquinho, Chico, and Tom Jobim.

This CD, together with "Vinicius de Moraes em Buenos Aires Con Maria Creuza y Toquinho" contain some of the best (and most well know) Brazilian songs.

If you like or is interested in Brazilian music, you certainly should buy this collection.

4.0 out of 5 stars awesome! one star withdrawn for sound quality only, April 13, 2004

By A Customer

La Fusa was a "cafe concert" (night club) located in Mar del Plata, Argentina in the late sixties, and later moving to Punta del Este, Uruguay. The two cities were, and are, the playground of the Argentine high class (and increasingly middle class as well). Vinicius brought his great Brazilian musicians to demonstrate the wonderfullness of bossa nova to appreciating crowds. There are two recordings, this one made I believe in Mar del Plata, and another one (referred to above) made in Punta del este with Maria Creuza, which is also wonderful. The live history of bossa nova.

4.0 out of 5 stars With Toquinho & Bethania En La Fusa [IMPORT], January 28, 2004

By	ALVARO M JEREZ (USA) - See all my reviews

Beautifully arranged and played.Listen carefully to No.2 and enjoy the "setting up" of the samba mood that follow by Toquinho's guitar.Makes you wonder why did we miss this alive performance...if you do not understand portuguez listen to the piano in the background and the little sayings of Toquinho's guitar and sooon you will say with every body...Sarava!.
If you want more of this ; look for the recording with Maria Creuza and you will have all the beauty of this two performers from Bahia
