First time reissue. Originally release in 1982. This Chico Lessa album is one of the milestones of independent production in Brazil and one of the greatest achievements of MPB (Brazilian Popular Music) ever that deserves wider recognition, and shines with a depth that makes it an instant classic. The arrangements on the beautiful "Choveu" and "Me Pega, Me Larga" can easily bring names like Arthur Verocai to your mind. No wonder the album features some of Brazil's leading musicians, arrangers, and composers of all time: Wagner Tiso, Mauricio Maestro, Robertinho Silva, Pascoal Meirelles... The songs on this album sound so fresh they could have been recorded today while also retaining the feel of the best post-Tropicalia work of '70s Brazil. It has become a much sought-after album in recent times after being rediscovered by top collectors worldwide. For those into Milton Nascimento, Caetano Veloso, Arthur Verocai... 180 gram vinyl.
