Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Brazil Samba.......2005-10-06

Many loath this collection and say it is dated and that David Byrne did not make the best possible selections to represent classic Samba music. But this is one heck of a CD. The two opening tracks by Clara Nunes will leave you mesmerized by those vocals and sad over what could have been if not for her tragic death. Beth Carvahlo on track 7 is one of the best Samba numbers from the 80s I've ever heard. Many other big name artists from Samba's past are represented here and while maybe they aren't represented by their best works, they are displayed well and this is one nice collection.

5 out of 5 stars Quintessential Samba.......2005-07-06

A masterpiece released in 1989, and probably the reason why David Byrne kept pushing the exploration of world music. A Must Have.
