CAETANO VELOSO – Caetano Veloso (A Little More Blue)
format: LP 180 gram
UPC: 8013252913518(LP)
Often referred to as “Brazil s unofficial poet laureate” and the “Bob Dylan of Brazil”, this heavy-weight of Brazilian music was also a young revolutionary who used his music to protest against Brazil s oppressive military regime. This protest music, which became known as Tropicalia, first earned Veloso a stint in jail, but by the time this dour album was released in 1971, it had placed him in exile in the UK. Veloso s extreme bitterness and melancholy can be heard on every groove of this album, but don t let the album s gloomy atmosphere stop you from buying it; it is dripping with some of the best moments of
saudade in the history of Brazilian music.
