Title: Any MPB fans here? Post by: shangaijoeBB on January 29, 2016, 07:52:31 AM Lately, iv'e been starting to listen to a lot of Música Popular Brasileira (MPB). Any other fan of this genre/era and if so, do you have any recommendations?
These I really like: Edu Lôbo - Gloria https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tSh1nkSe1E Caetano Veloso - Triste Bahia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cs2L70ZfVTI And of course, this: Clube da Esquina https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frq70agiADY Title: Re: Any MPB fans here?

Os Mutantes - Jardim Elétrico https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3NrtimlzC0 Title: Re: Any MPB fans here?

His ear for melody is right there with Brian Wilson and Burt Bacharach. If you haven't tried him yet, please do yourself the favor of checking this out:

krabklaw - Yes Valle is really great. I only have ''Garra''. Which other album of his would you recommend? Title: Re: Any MPB fans here?

Marcos Valle (Quarentão Simpático) (1970), Mustang Cor De Sangue (1969), Previsão do Tempo (1973) are all top shelf from the same period as Garra. I think all of his albums are worth hearing though if you're into this stuff. Title: Re: Any MPB fans here?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCJARtrafkY Chico Buarque is required listening for any MPB fan. On par with Dylan as far as lyrics go. Also probably the most censored songwriter in Brazil during his career in the 1960s and 1970s. Title: Re: Any MPB fans here?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wV4vAtPn5-Q Probably Chico's best song and the one with the darkest lyrics by far. Title: Re: Any MPB fans here? Post by: yonderhillside on February 15, 2016, 10:22:15 AM Check out this compilation:
Tropicalia: Ou Panis Et Circenses I keep it handy. I second Clube Da Esquina. No idea what he's saying but a very spiritual feel. |
