Milton with the great Naný Vasconcelos.......2005-06-12

This great album brings us the band that played with Milton in the 70's, Som Imaginýrio, that includes names as Toninho Horta on guitars and Wagner Tiso on keyboards. But the great presence of this album is the percussionist Naný Vasconcelos. He ambients the album with his nature sounds in such a beautiful unity with Milton that we can't remain uneasy while playing the record. A great album follows this one: The 74's Milagre dos Peixes ao Vivo, recorded during the tour in Sýo Paulo. Unfortunetly the Amazon consumers have no access to this record, which I think must be as soon as possible provide... in this live record one can hear Milton's experimental period in all its potency...
The wordless songs have a political reason. When the lyrics were submited to the censorship of the brazilian dictatorship, it was almost completly forbidden. The result is this anguish in every syllable pronounced, mirror of the anguish of the whole nation.
The "Fish's miracle" shows the unique voice of one of the greatest brazilian genious.

Otherworldly.......2004-03-12

This is the most radical, experimental album from Milton's great years. Don't expect great, singable songs (of course there's the title track, and "sacramento), but rather haunting ambiances, jungle cries, children's chants, hummed prayers, and even a bar pianist's despair playing to a noisy crowd. It's cinemascope motion pictures for your ears: extremely innovative, and extremely intense.
5 stars:definatively, as this ressembles nothing that ever has been done, even by Milton himself.

More Peak Period Milton.......2003-01-29

Ugh....5 stars here...5 stars there...makes a 5 star review less powerful. I save only of handful of CD's for 5 star ratings. After Milton's only 5 star album, 1972's "Clube Da Esquina"...I rank this as one of the top 5 Milton's worthy of purchase, along with Geraes, Minas, Milton (1976) and Clube Da Esquina 2....after that, Milton's albums become very unfocused and disappointing.

magnitude.......2001-12-09

In this record, Milton went (at that time)to unexplored wrolds and sounds. There's a feeling of despair, sometimes impotence, to fight against any sort of 'gods' or ghosts. This goes through the all record on. At the end, Pablo is a sign of the hope on a man that, lonely, begins a shy attempt to get out in the sun.
A must

5 star album, 3 star issue=4 stars.......2000-06-06

This album was the 1973 follow-up to '72's epochal "Clube Da Esquina." It's a brave, integrity-filled move that doesn't attempt to duplicate "CDE" in the least. Emotion-filled and at times a bit creepy, it features wordless vocals and sound effects in lieu of lyrics, most of which were banned by the military dictator schmucks then in power in Brazil. This reissue has a different cover than the original and inferior sound, but the great, proper Abbey Road-remastered version seems to be out of print (EMI, what are you DOING! ). It's also short one track. Nevertheless, this is an important work that deserves to be heard one way or another. Musically, it's nothing like you might expect, it's a work you need to set aside some time to absorb properly. Its riches will reveal themselves to you eventually, and you'll then embark on a mission to track down the good CD version of this, which even reproduces the lavish packaging of the original. This is music as deep and wide as the ocean...
