1987 release ** "One of Brazilian PolyGram's anthologies of homegrown music, this volume offers a cross-section of Milton Nascimento's Brazilian output from 1980 to 1985, with a side trip way back to the unforgettable tune that launched him in 1967, "Travessia." From North American rock/funk -- a live rendition of a tune dedicated to the Beatles, "Para Lennon e McCartney" -- to smooth-textured pop, lush electronic backdrops, a mournful Villa-Lobos melody ("Cantiga"), and various Brazilian backgrounds, this CD reflects the multiplicity of influences that the Brazilian superstar had been pulling in."
