Tom Zé, a top of unique musician with an exceptionally unusual sensibility even in huge Brazil, gained true recognition in the 1990s after a disappointing period in the 1970s and 1980s, while also participating in Tropicalismo. It is still remember in our memory that he toured Japan a few years ago. This is the 6th album released in 1978. Known as an autobiographical expression of a tragic real life, he creates a sound that makes you feel like you're seeing light and shadow, a combination of samba and other rhythmic sensibilities, as well as creative and fun aspects. Our favorite title track, with its no-wave capoeira like rhythm and chanting vocals is always great, and all of the tracks are delightful and tasteful of course. Original beautiful copy.
かのトロピカリズモにも参加しながら、70-80年代の不遇の時を経て90年代になり真の評価を受けた、音楽大国ブラジルにおいても飛びぬけて異端の感覚を持った音楽家Tom Zé。ここ日本でも数年前に来日を果たした事は記憶に新しいです。本作は78年にリリースされた通算6枚目のアルバム。悲惨な実生活を自伝的に表現した作品として知られ、サンバはじめ様々なリズム感覚に独創的な側面と愉快な側面が調和した陰と陽を見るようなサウンドを聞かせてくれます。ノーウェーブ的カポエイラリズムにマントラのようなヴォーカルがのったタイトル曲はいつ聞いても凄いですが、どの曲も愉快で味わいがありもう最高。やっぱりいいなぁ〜。オリジナル美盤インサート付き。
