Brazil Classics 1: Beleza Tropical torrent

Just adding the missing first track to a previous post by: syliphone.

The first David Byrne collection for Luaka Bop

You couldn\\\'t ask for a better sampler of post-bossa nova pop than this. Well, you could, but it\\\'d be darned hard to find. Byrne did a fabulous job cherry-picking the best of \\\'70s and early \\\'80s MPB, throwing in several super-catchy tunes such as Jorge Ben\\\'s \\\"Umbabarauma\\\" and Caetano Veloso\\\'s \\\"Ile Ale,\\\" songs which really stick in your head and win you over. Also included: \\\"Sonho Meu,\\\" perhaps the sweetest song recorded by either Gal Costa or Maria Bethania; several songs by Chico Buarque, including a wonderful duet with Milton Nascimento (\\\"Calice\\\"), and a couple of interesting tracks by the lesser-known female singer, Nazare Pereira. Admittedly, the second half of this record slides into cheesier terrain, but the slippage is relatively minor. This remains one of the best -- if not the best -- introduction to Brazilian pop available.
