4 out of 5 stars Not what I expected, but quite fun.......2000-11-28

After seeing a Brazilian percussion band in concert, I became enamored by the Brazilian musical style. I couldn't find a recording by the band (turns out they haven't released anything), so I thought I'd pick up this recording to see what I thought of Brazilian music. It's quite fun. It has a wide range of styles, from what I'd have to call Brazilian rap, to zydeco, to Paul Simon-esque tunes. It's very rich from the percussion side of things. Track 6 bugs me, as the singers voices sound artificially high-pitched. Virtually every other tune is pleasant to listen to. I give it four stars, because I can listen to it over and over in a day, and come back to it the next day and still enjoy it.
