Fantastic.......2002-03-02

When I first listened to this CD I thought 'yeah that's good'. Now I love it and can't stop playing it. It makes a great driving CD, if you can manage to control your urge to dance that is!! Very cool album, fairly international, but with a lot of Brazilian touches, the more you listen the more you notice.
I didn't know much about this guy before buying the album, just that he'd collaborated on a song with Marisa Monte, but I'm definitely going to listen to more of his stuff now!

still the man!.......2001-09-23

this is some beautiful carlinhos! sweet, swinging, singing, hard, soft. it's what i've come to expect from this great, beautiful and odd cat! carlinhos is a top player at the top of his game on this cd and there's ABSOLUTELY NO ONE better at this particular type of game at this particular time! buy this cd and enjoy!

Not as good as I'd hoped.......2001-08-07

I previewed this CD in the store and ended up buying it but now I'm a little disappointed. It's a little lighter and pop-ier and cheezier than I like. I think I like about 50% of the tracks and the rest I have to fastforward through because they're too cheez for me. The first track, 'pegadas na areia' is great but the second 'crendice' is kind of embarrassing to be caught listening to (unless you like R&B). 'Mess in the freeway' is super-cheez but it gets better with 'cavalo da simpatia', 'cearabe' and 'shalom'. I think I would have a hard time recommending this new CD to anyone unless you're a die-hard fan of Carlinhos Brown or you're into that light pop side of Brazilian music. If you're unfamiliar with Carlinhos Brown, check out Alphagamabetizacao instead. That CD rocks!

Could be funkier, but still a solid album.......2001-07-18

In "Bahia do Mundo," Carlinhos does not duplicate the funky party atmosphere he presented in "Omelete Man," but I don't suppose we should expect him to do so. This album is slightly more mature, for lack of a better word, and reflects back upon "Alfagamabetizado." If you like the other stuff, you'll be right at home here - with the soul groove of "Crendice," the solid reggae of "Mess in the Freeway," and the killer percussion throughout. Though the album slows down a bit midway and seems to lose momentum, all is redeemed with the wonderfully written and extremely catchy "Vai Rolar." Overall, get the other albums first, but if you can find "Bahio do Mundo" it won't disappoint. Carlinhos and his strange brew of all things Brazilian and tinges of American pop and rock make for a fine time once again.

Carlinhos Brown at his best.......2001-05-13

This is a fantastic album for those who love Brazilian music. The early cuts are great especially lagoinha and the rest of the album grows on you. It is not as creative and varied as ALFA, but a must buy for Brown's fans. I would love to see him preform in person.
